Does prostatitis cause symptoms on the glans?

Patient's question:

What are the symptoms of prostatitis affecting the glans? My glans has become rough and wrinkled. Is it related to prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

If it is bacterial prostatitis, it could be a urinary tract infection, and the slight pain in the glans may be a referred pain. The common prostatitis is just an aseptic inflammation, so you still need to go to the hospital for a urine test to determine if there is an infection. Then you can determine the cause of the pain.
