Patient's question:
I have been experiencing frequent urination and urgency lately, and I don't know what caused it. I have friends who have had similar symptoms before, and they said they suffered from frequent urination and urgency. So, is frequent urination and urgency prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms and Treatment of Prostatitis: Prostatitis is a common disease among adult males.

The common symptoms are primarily as follows:1. Urinary discomfort: Frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, burning sensation during urination, incomplete emptying of the bladder, and urine splitting.
2. White discharge (Diping): A few drops of white fluid are expelled from the urethral opening after urination or defecation. This phenomenon is referred to as "white discharge."
3. Swelling and pain in the testicles, anus, and perineum: Pain worsens when squatting, defecating, or sitting for long periods.
4. Lower back pain and leg weakness.
5. Premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction.
