Wondering what are the symptoms of acute prostatitis

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing a burning sensation during urination. At first, I thought it was due to a stomach issue, but drinking water didn't relieve it. Later, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said I had acute prostatitis. I want to know what symptoms are common with this inflammation?

Doctor's answer:

Normally, acute prostatitis is a common disease in men. The main symptoms include frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, perineal pain, and possibly fever. Other symptoms may include sexual pain, reduced libido, and lower back pain. It is recommended to follow the guidance of the attending physician for medication and active treatment. During the treatment period, avoid sexual activity and consuming extremely cold, spicy, or irritating foods. Pay close attention to local hygiene, change your clothes and underwear frequently, and expose your underwear to the sun for drying. Maintain dryness in the groin area. Eat light and easily digestible foods.
