Patient's question:
I have been experiencing a strong odor in my urine during urination recently. Besides the white discharge, sometimes I also feel pain during urination. Apart from this, there are no other physical symptoms. I have never had this kind of symptom before, and I have been very worried that it might be prostatitis, especially since I am still so young.Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis primarily manifests as a sense of fullness, discomfort, or pain in the perineum, anal area, and posterior urethra. Common symptoms include creamy white discharge from the urethral orifice, frequent urination, urinary urgency, dysuria, incomplete emptying of the bladder, a burning sensation during urination, nocturia, decreased libido, premature ejaculation, delayed ejaculation, painful ejaculation, hematospermia, and nocturnal emissions, among other sexual dysfunctions and poor semen liquefaction. These are all symptoms of prostatitis. If any of these conditions are present, it is recommended that patients seek medical attention for thorough examination and treatment.For patients, if the condition of prostatitis is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of prostatitis. Additionally, patients should pay attention to their diet and psychological care. It is hoped that the answers provided above can assist everyone.
