Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I recently felt a stinging sensation when using the restroom, and my urine is yellow. Sometimes I also have severe abdominal pain. My wife suspects I have prostatitis, and I'm very scared that I might have it. Doctor, what is the routine and thorough examination for male prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
To carefully examine the prostate, there are two methods: one is ultrasound, and the other is laboratory testing. The symptoms of prostatitis should include urgency, frequency, pain during urination, incomplete urination, and sometimes recurring pain during urination, as well as discomfort in the lower abdomen. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene, avoid getting cold, not eat spicy and irritating foods, have a restrained sexual life, eat more vegetables and fruits, drink plenty of water, and exercise moderately.
