Patient's question:
My husband has been experiencing frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination recently. He constantly feels the need to go to the bathroom, sometimes with a particularly urgent sensation. There is also some pain during urination. When he went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor diagnosed it as inflammation and prescribed some anti-inflammatory medication. After taking it for a few days, the symptoms started to improve.What kind of help is needed: What causes frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination in men?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is considered urethritis. Urethritis is a common disease in men, generally divided into specific and non-specific types. Specific urethritis is often caused by infections such as E. coli, streptococcus, and staphylococcus, as well as gonorrhea, duodenal bacteria, and trichomoniasis, chlamydia, and mycoplasma. Non-specific urethritis is caused by urethral injury, stones, prostatitis, urethral stenosis, phimosis, masturbation, and sexual activity, among other factors.
