Do you need to be hospitalized for prostate kidney stones?

Patient's question:

I have prostatitis and kidney stones. I always feel the urge to urinate, especially when the doctor advises me to drink more water. When I squat to use the toilet, I don't know if it's because of the pressure from squatting down. When I have a bowel movement, it's like I can't urinate for a minute, and then I can only urinate a little bit every minute. What's going on? I always feel like my body is filled with weak water.

Doctor's answer:

This consideration involves two aspects. One is that prostatitis may have caused acute cystitis, leading to such urinary tract symptoms. The other is to consider the possibility of bladder stones, which may be present in the same location each time. It is recommended to conduct a urinalysis and a prostate fluid examination. For severe cases of prostatitis, immediate medical attention is advised. Follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment and avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment outcome.
