Patient's question:
I haven't drunk much water recently, and my body hasn't been sick with things like colds. However, I've always felt the urge to go to the bathroom, with a sensation of frequent and urgent urination. But every time I go, there's not much urine, and sometimes it's very difficult to urinate—half a day goes by without being able to go. This symptom has been making me feel very low-spirited these days.Doctor's answer:
Hello, in such cases, it is important to be aware of the possibility of prostatitis. The main causes of prostatitis are the direct spread of urinary tract infections, hematogenous dissemination of infections from other parts of the body, and prostatic calculi. Additionally, various factors that cause prostatic congestion, such as excessive alcohol consumption, sexual stimulation, prolonged sitting, tight clothing, chronic cross-legged positions, and perineal trauma, are also triggers for prostatitis. It is recommended that if you experience any of these discomforts, you should undergo relevant health check-ups, such as a prostatic fluid routine examination, and consider treatment based on the results.
