Patient's question:
Wondering what the symptoms of prostatitis are, will it affect sex life and fertility, what precautions should be noted, what are the symptoms of prostatitis, can it be cured.Doctor's answer:
Pain in the perineum, discomfort in the perineum, heaviness, fullness, and dull or severe pain are early symptoms of prostatitis. The pain can radiate to the lower back, penis, pubic area, and inner thighs. During bowel movements, the pain may intensify or cause rectal pain, primarily due to the stimulation of pelvic nerves in the early stages of prostatitis. Weak urine flow and the inability of the bladder detrusor muscle to compensate are also early symptoms of prostatitis. In the early stages of prostatitis, difficulty urinating may occur, requiring a brief wait before gradually applying force to empty the bladder. Early symptoms of prostatitis may also manifest as shortened urination time, reduced (), and thinning of the urine stream.
