Is it really a problem with the prostate??

Patient's question:

Duration of onset and persistence: Approximately 10 years (cannot be specified precisely)
Condition: Urinary hesitation (no problem in quiet settings, but may wait for several minutes in public restrooms with many people), strong odor during urination, occasional lower abdominal pain.
Explanation: The condition may have developed around the time of junior high school or freshman year of high school. In sophomore year of high school, it was treated, and a kidney test showed normal results. A prostate examination was also conducted. At that time, it might have been due to being too young, and no specific issues were mentioned. Some anti-inflammatory medication and vitamins were prescribed, but with little effect. Due to being busy with other matters at the time, it was put aside, and there has been no improvement since. The lower abdominal pain has only worsened. Currently,

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there is no need to be overly anxious about your situation. I suggest you go to a regular hospital's urology department for a check-up. You are relatively young, and in general, the prostate should not have any issues.
At the same time, you are experiencing frequent urination and blood in your stool, which are not serious problems. You should focus on eating more vegetables and fruits, avoiding alcohol, and reducing the intake of spicy foods to keep your bowel movements regular. This will help reduce the occurrence of these symptoms.
