What are the hazards of prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Recently, I have been experiencing symptoms such as frequent urination, urinary urgency, and dysuria. Difficulty urinating, increased nocturia, and pain/pressure in the perineum are also distressing symptoms. In severe cases, the condition can lead to sexual dysfunction, causing inconvenience and pain in daily life and work. Later, I was diagnosed with prostatitis at the hospital. What are the hazards?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, sexual function problems may lead to benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic hyperplasia, or difficulty urinating. It is recommended that you seek medical attention at a higher-level hospital for a thorough examination. If it is confirmed to be prostatitis, regular follow-up tests are necessary, and sexual activity must be strictly prohibited during treatment. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated promptly, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take timely and appropriate medication, and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
