Patient's question:
How did prostatitis come about? A while ago, because I wasn't feeling well, I was completely lacking energy and caught cold several times. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor actually asked me to get tested for prostatitis. The results came back saying I had chronic prostatitis. I was shocked when I heard this. What's going on? I didn't even feel anything.Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis (prosaiis) refers to a prostate disease characterized by urethral irritation symptoms and chronic pelvic pain as its main clinical manifestations, caused by a variety of complex factors. It is a common condition in urology, accounting for the highest proportion among male patients under the age of 50 in urology. Although the incidence of prostatitis is high, its etiology remains unclear, especially in non-bacterial prostatitis. Therefore, its treatment primarily focuses on symptom improvement.
