Patient's question:
When urinating, if the foreskin is retracted, it will split into two streams, one above and one below. If it's not retracted, it won't. Also, during sexual activity, it only lasts about 3 minutes. I want to know if it's related to prostatitis, or if it's due to excessive foreskin or kidney deficiency. If it's prostatitis, what are the symptoms? Normally, I don't have frequent urination, but I might go a couple of extra times at night if I drink a lot of water. If it's kidney deficiency, what are the symptoms? I hope the doctor can explain it clearly.Doctor's answer:
The patient experienced urine splitting again during urination. It is related to the retraction of the foreskin. Mild premature ejaculation. Instructions and suggestions: The patient did not show symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, or pain again, so we can temporarily rule out prostate issues. Urine splitting is related to changes in the urethral opening caused by the torsion of the foreskin being too long. Additionally, it is recommended to undergo a circumcision, engage in aerobic exercise, and consume more fresh vegetables and fruits. For patients with prostate issues, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, the patient should take medication according to symptoms and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
