Patient's question:
My husband has been going to the bathroom more frequently lately, and sometimes he goes in and comes out right away. When I ask him what's wrong, he says he can't urinate! At night, he's also restless and can't sleep well, and during the day, he lacks energy.Doctor's answer:
The main symptoms are as follows:1. Clinical manifestations of acute prostatitis: Onset is sudden, with systemic infectious symptoms or sepsis manifestations, including high fever, frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, urethral pain, perineal and suprapubic pain, rectal fullness, and difficulty defecating. Occasionally, due to bladder neck edema and severe pain, urination may become difficult, or even urinary retention may occur.
2. Clinical manifestations of chronic prostatitis: The symptoms vary greatly among different patients. Common symptoms include:
- Pain: The posterior urethra may have a burning sensation or crawling sensation. Pain in the perineum and anus can radiate to the lumbosacral region, groin, suprapubic area, penis, testicles, and occasionally to the abdomen.
In addition to treating prostatitis, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
