Patient's question:
I have always been in good health, but recently I've noticed that I can't urinate properly, possibly due to aging. I don't know what the reason is. Moreover, I can't hold my urine for long; I need to go to the bathroom within minutes. I'm very worried it might be prostatitis. Hello, is this prostatitis or something else?Doctor's answer:
You are experiencing difficulty urinating again, which is related to prostate disease, but it does not necessarily mean it is prostatitis. The possibility of urinary tract stones cannot be ruled out either. It is necessary to visit the urology department of a hospital for a thorough examination. For urinary difficulties caused by different reasons, the treatment methods are actually different. Do not use medication blindly; this is not a solution to the problem, and it may even relieve symptoms. Prostatitis is a serious condition, and patients are advised to seek timely symptomatic treatment.
