Patient's question:

I recently can't urinate when I go to the toilet. My wife said it might be prostatitis. What are the symptoms of prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

The symptoms of male prostatitis are divided into acute prostatitis and chronic prostatitis.
The symptoms of acute prostatitis include local discomfort due to inflammation, such as frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, terminal hematuria, discomfort in the anus and perineum, a sense of heaviness and fullness, and difficulty urinating during defecation.
The symptoms of chronic prostatitis include frequent urination, urgent urination, incomplete urination, urethral burning pain, hesitancy in urination, urinary incontinence, urine splitting, and thin urine stream. The clinical manifestations of chronic prostatitis vary greatly among patients, with common symptoms including:
1. A burning sensation after urination.
2. Mild frequent urination and urgency.
3. Sexual dysfunction.
4. Neurological weakness, such as depression and neurasthenia.
It is recommended that patients pay attention to rest and avoid overexertion.
