Patient's question:
I am 13 years old and have no sexual history. Sometimes I don't pay enough attention to hygiene, which led to balanitis. It hasn't healed yet. Lately, I've noticed frequent urination and some pain in the prostate area. I want to know if it's prostatitis. Should I tell my parents? How should I say it?Doctor's answer:
If there is pain, it is likely caused by some inflammation. I suggest you go to the hospital for a check-up to identify the cause and treat it accordingly. Pay attention to cleaning regularly, and I wish you good health. For prostate patients, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If not treated promptly, it may affect your physical condition. Therefore, patients should respond to the symptoms promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
