Patient's question:
During urination, I experience pain, urgency, and frequent urination. Sometimes there is some discharge from the urethral opening, and my body also feels uncomfortable. I have a lack of energy and poor appetite. I went to the hospital for treatment, and the doctor said I have prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
Generally, the causes of prostatitis include:(1) Infection by various pathogenic microorganisms, such as viruses, mycoplasma, chlamydia, bacteria, spirochetes, fungi, and trichomonads, which can cause sepsis. The main route is urinary tract infection, where the infection descends from the urethra to the prostate gland, spreading into the prostatic ducts and causing infectious inflammation.
(2) Biological factors also include the status of the body's immune system. When the immune system is normal, even if pathogens are present in the urethra, they will not cause sepsis. On the contrary, if the body's immunity declines.
