Patient's question:
I just finished a routine prostate examination at a private hospital and after going home, I noticed pain while urinating, which has lasted for several days without any relief. I called the doctor to ask, and he told me that this is a common symptom after the sample is taken for the examination. People around me who have had similar examinations have also experienced this symptom. What could be the situation? Is this normal? Does urination pain occur after a routine prostate examination?Doctor's answer:
It may be caused by prostate diseases. It is recommended that you visit the urology department of a hospital as soon as possible for further examination. You will need to undergo a urinalysis, color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate, and a routine examination of prostatic fluid to confirm the specific diagnosis. Then, based on the results of the tests, you should take medication that is sensitive to the infection. It is also important to maintain good health and avoid staying up late, drinking alcohol, sitting or standing for long periods, spicy and irritating foods, and overexertion.
