Doctor's answer:

Symptoms and Treatment of Prostatitis: Prostatitis is a common disease among adult males. It may be asymptomatic, or it can present with noticeable symptoms that persist or recur, even leading to chronic or recurrent urinary and reproductive tract infections. The common symptoms are primarily as follows:
1. Urinary discomfort: Frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, burning sensation during urination, incomplete urination, and urine splitting.
2. White discharge: A drop or two of white fluid may be expelled from the urethral opening after urination or defecation. This phenomenon is known as "white discharge."
3. Swelling pain in the testicles, anus, and perineum: The pain intensifies when squatting, defecating, or sitting for long periods.
4. Lower back pain and leg weakness.
5. Premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction.
If you experience 2-3 of the above symptoms, please seek medical attention at a professional hospital as soon as possible for timely diagnosis and treatment to prevent the condition from worsening.
