Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling uncomfortable when using the restroom, with some pain. Usually, I feel a burning sensation at the urethral opening. I'm just restless and uneasy. I'm only 42 years old, and I wonder if I might have prostatitis! If it really is, please ask: What should I do if I have prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
According to your situation, since the long-term lack of treatment for recurrent prostatitis can be quite harmful, it can easily lead to impotence and premature ejaculation, and even male infertility. Since the cause is clear, it is important to promptly and standardizedly treat prostatitis. It is recommended that you pay attention to preventive measures in daily life, avoid sitting for long periods, and also restrain sexual activity. It is advisable to undergo a thorough examination at a formal urological hospital. Once the specific cause of the prostatitis is identified, symptomatic treatment should be administered.
