Doctor's answer:

The symptoms of prostatitis include:
1. Acute prostatitis: The main symptoms are a sense of fullness and discomfort in the perineum, mild pain in the lower abdomen, which can radiate to the lumbar-sacral region, penis, and inner thighs. If caused by urinary tract infection, symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, or hematuria may reappear. The onset is relatively sudden and may be accompanied by systemic symptoms such as fever, chills, anorexia, and fatigue.
2. Chronic prostatitis: The main symptoms are frequent urination, a feeling of incomplete urination, burning and pain in the urethra. The pain is often a sense of fullness and twitching, radiating to the glans penis and perineum, along with discomfort in the suprapubic region and lumbar-sacral region. Patients often have prostatic hypersecretion, which frequently occurs during the end of urination or when straining during a bowel movement, with white secretions dripping from the urethral meatus.
