Patient's question:
These past few days, I've been experiencing frequent urination again, and I'm very afraid of getting prostatitis. So, I want to ask what are the causes of acute prostatitis symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Acute prostatitis is mostly caused by bacterial infection due to factors such as urinary tract infection. It generally presents with systemic symptoms, such as fever. Based on your symptoms, it is likely caused by a urinary tract infection. Therefore, it is recommended that you visit a urologist in the hospital promptly for further examination. Urinalysis and bacterial culture tests should be conducted to determine the specific type of bacteria causing the infection. This will help in timely antibiotic treatment to alleviate the inflammation.
