Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a lot of pain while urinating, and I've also noticed that my urgency to urinate is very severe. If I slow down even a little when going to the toilet, I'll end up urinating in my pants. Moreover, during this period, I've been experiencing pain in the perineum area while urinating. I went to the hospital for a detailed examination and found out that I have prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
Hello, prostatitis can also manifest as acute chills and fever, accompanied by frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria. It is typically characterized by lower back pain and discomfort on the affected side; however, it does not involve suprapubic or perineal pain, nor does it cause urinary difficulties. It is recommended that patients seek examination and treatment at a specialized hospital. Spicy foods, such as scallions, raw garlic, and chili peppers, can cause blood vessel dilation, leading to organ congestion, which can also affect the prostate. If you have the condition, it is essential to receive active treatment at a reputable hospital.
