Patient's question:
I recently don't know why my lower abdomen is very uncomfortable, and I also don't have morning erections anymore. Is it a urinary tract infection in this case?Doctor's answer:
If a patient experiences hematuria and difficulty in defecation, it is necessary to consider the possibility of having rectal diseases, such as: hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or rectal mucosal abrasion caused by dry stools. For the patient, it is necessary to undergo a digital rectal examination for careful diagnosis. If urinary tract infection occurs with symptoms of frequent urination, a urinalysis can be performed to check for the presence of white blood cells.
