Is localized pain a symptom of prostatitis?

Patient's question:

I've been feeling discomfort in my rectum for a week, with a sensation of. At first, I didn't pay much attention, but it has been getting worse lately, especially when I have a bowel movement, the pain is particularly severe. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

When a male friend experiences localized swelling and pain again, it should be taken seriously. For example, common symptoms include a heavy and uncomfortable sensation in the posterior urethra, perineum, and anal area, relief when squatting, during bowel movements, and after sitting on chairs or benches for a long time. Therefore, I suggest you go to the hospital for a check-up. If there is a disease, treat it; if not, it’s even better, right? Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term oral medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals promptly. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
