Patient's question:
I have been experiencing pain in my groin area recently, and I also feel like I can't fully empty my bladder, like needing to go to the toilet right after I just did. I have a friend with prostatitis who used to have similar symptoms. I really don't think I'll get this disease, right? What are the early symptoms of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, it is possible to have a prostate disease. Prostate diseases are a common clinical diagnosis in urology, associated with various factors such as age, inflammation, poor lifestyle habits, and dietary habits. Early clinical symptoms mainly include frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, difficulty urinating, incomplete urination, and discomfort in the perineum. If you experience any of these symptoms again, you should promptly visit a regular public hospital's urology department for follow-up, to get a clear diagnosis and active treatment, in order to avoid missing the best treatment opportunity and worsening the condition.
