Patient's question:
How did prostatitis come about? A few weeks ago, because I wasn't feeling well, I was completely lacking energy and caught colds several times. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor surprisingly asked me to get tested for prostatitis. The results came back saying I had chronic prostatitis. I was shocked upon hearing 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 the main clinical manifestations, caused by a variety of complex factors. Prostatitis is a common condition in urology, accounting for the highest proportion among male patients under 50 years old. Although the incidence of prostatitis is high, its etiology remains unclear, especially in non-bacterial prostatitis. Therefore, its treatment primarily focuses on symptom improvement.
