Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing recurrent prostate pain. It hurts when I urinate, and even a slight touch causes pain. It takes a long time to feel better once the pain starts. I also frequently feel the urge to urinate and avoid sexual activity due to the pain. I'm wondering if it might be something like prostatitis. What kind of help I'm looking for: What are the harms of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis refers to any discomfort or pain in the prostate. Ignoring the treatment of the disease can lead to the following hazards: interference with normal life and work. The recurrence of prostate pain can make it impossible to feel at ease and engage in activities, and the disease can affect normal sexual life between couples. Over time, it can be very detrimental to the relationship between spouses and family harmony. It can cause pain and discomfort. Patients may experience pain and discomfort in areas such as the urethra, prostate, lower abdomen, and perineum. As the condition gradually worsens, the pain and discomfort become more severe, and some patients may also notice discomfort in the groin and waist.
