Patient's question:
I've been experiencing frequent urination these past few days, and when I go to the bathroom, I can't urinate, but I always feel like I need to. I searched online, and it seems this could be a symptom of prostatitis. However, I haven't had a thorough check-up at the hospital yet. I just want to ask, how did my prostate get into this condition?Doctor's answer:
Frequent urination and urgency are generally considered to be issues related to urethral infection or problems with the prostate. If no thorough laboratory tests have been conducted, it is recommended to revisit the local People's Hospital. The urology department can use a urinalysis and a prostate ultrasound to further confirm whether the prostate is experiencing problems. The main symptoms include abdominal swelling and pain, frequent urination and urgency, and difficulty urinating. Therefore, it is highly likely that the issue is related to the prostate.
