Hello, prostatitis can cause the symptoms mentioned above. A prostatic fluid test can be performed to aid in diagnosis.When abdominal pain is generally tolerable, it is important to seek medical diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. Avoid self-administering painkillers, as this may mask the condition.

When necessary, a hot water bag can be used to warm the abdomen to alleviate the pain.
