Patient's question:
This time, there has been a more frequent need to urinate, urgency to urinate, and a feeling of lower abdominal pain. In the past few days, there has been blood in the semen during sexual activity. This has never happened before, and it's quite distressing. I'm not sure if it might be prostatitis. Hello, are there any symptoms of prostatitis that include blood in the semen?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, if there is blood in the semen, it is still possible to have the possibility of seminal vesiculitis. If there is prostatitis, the main symptoms are frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, and a sense of fullness or discomfort in the lower abdomen and scrotum. Therefore, in your case, it is recommended to undergo a color Doppler ultrasound examination for a thorough check-up to confirm the diagnosis. Additionally, it is advisable to eat less spicy and irritating foods and avoid sitting for long periods. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely and symptomatic treatment, and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
