Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why there is severe pain at the base of the urethra when urinating. I thought it might be prostatitis, as I have never had this symptom before. I would like to consult about the relevant techniques for prostatitis and seek your help: Is urethral pain during urination a symptom of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis pain is a discomfort similar to chronic prostatitis caused by spasmodic pain in the urethral muscles, prostate muscles, or the muscles of the perineum and pelvic floor. Patients with prostatitis pain have abnormal urine flow, including slow stream and dribbling; the urinary flow chart shows a tooth-shaped wave, with increased urine flow. Its characteristic is that the maximum urine flow rate is mildly impaired or normal, while the uniform urine flow rate is significantly reduced, or the uniform urine flow rate is still at the lower limit of normal, but the duration of urination is shortened. In some long-term cases, there may be a recurrence of significant residual urine.
