Doctor's answer:
Symptoms of prostatitis include:1. Urinary discomfort: It may manifest as bladder irritation, such as frequent urination, a burning sensation or pain during urination that radiates to the head of the penis. In the morning, the urethral orifice may have mucus-like secretions, and difficulty urinating may also occur.
2. Local symptoms: A sense of heaviness and discomfort in the posterior urethra, perineum, and anus. The pain may worsen when squatting, defecating, or sitting on chairs or benches for a long time.
3. Radiating pain: The pain of chronic prostatitis is not limited to the urethra and perineum but may also radiate to nearby areas, with lower back pain being the most common.
4. Sexual dysfunction: Chronic prostatitis can lead to decreased libido, painful ejaculation, premature ejaculation, and affect semen quality. Additionally, white discharge from the urethral orifice may occur after urination or defecation. In cases where seminal vesiculitis is present, hematospermia may also occur.
