Patient's question:
My husband noticed purulent discharge from the urethral opening when he went to bed this morning to urinate, and he felt intermittent sharp pain during urination. In fact, a week ago, my husband had already felt uncomfortable when urinating, with symptoms of urinary urgency and dysuria, and it seemed like he was urinating more frequently. I searched for the symptoms online, and I'm afraid he might have prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
Prostate diseases may cause symptoms such as frequent urination, urgent urination, perineal pain, lower back pain and fatigue. It is painful for oneself, and more seriously, it may lead to seminal vesiculitis, affecting sperm quality and fertility. If you have prostatitis, it is recommended to seek early treatment. For severe prostatitis patients, it is advised to visit a doctor as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid changing medications at will, otherwise the therapeutic effect may be counterproductive.
