Patient's question:
Every time I have the urge to urinate, I stand there and can't urinate, and if it takes too long, it causes lower back pain. It takes a lot of effort to urinate, coming out drop by drop. After a while, it takes about 2 minutes to slowly urinate, and the stream is forked and very thin. This is prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
