Patient's question:
I have been experiencing frequent urination for a while now. I basically go to the bathroom more than ten times a day, which makes me feel embarrassed at work. Recently, I've also felt pain during urination. After a check-up, I found out that I have prostatitis. How does prostatitis occur?Doctor's answer:
1, The location of the human prostate is relatively special, as it is anatomically adjacent to the seminal vesicle. Therefore, prostatitis can affect the seminal vesicle, and prostatitis can be caused by many pathways. If not careful, it can lead to prostatitis, making it the most common disease among prostatitis. People with prostatitis may sometimes have no symptoms, but it persistently causes discomfort in the urinary and reproductive systems, gradually affecting the seminal vesicle and causing prostatitis.2, Circulatory infection. Many bacteria in the body can reach the prostate through the bloodstream, causing prostatitis. For example, bacteria from the skin, tonsils, respiratory tract, or intestines can enter the prostate. There is also lymphatic infection. The prostate is close to the rectum, colon, and bladder, so inflammation can spread to the prostate through these areas. It can also enter directly through the urethra. Our hands carry a lot of bacteria, and during urination, bacteria can enter the urethra, leading to chronic prostatitis.
