What are the causes of prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I want to ask what is prostatitis, and why does this condition reappear. What are the reasons for the recurrence of prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

Prostatitis is a type of prostate disease that causes a burning sensation during urination, along with symptoms such as urinary urgency, frequent urination, dribbling urine, and purulent urethral discharge. It can also lead to edema of the bladder neck, resulting in difficulty urinating, a narrowed or interrupted urine flow, and in severe cases, urinary retention. In terms of the composition of prostate diseases, not drinking enough water causes urine to become concentrated, allowing harmful toxic substances to accumulate. This can lead to reflux into the prostate ducts, causing harm and sepsis. Therefore, people who do not drink enough water are more prone to developing prostate diseases.
Eating spicy foods can affect the digestive and urinary tracts, causing congestion and potentially leading to constipation. These factors are very unfavorable for the local metabolism of the prostate and can all trigger the recurrence of inflammation.
