Prostatitis can cause symptoms such as abnormal urination, localized pain, and decreased sexual function. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for examination. The following are common symptoms:
1. Urinary problems: Frequent urination, urgency, stinging or burning sensation during urination may occur, and some people may feel that urination is not smooth.
2. Pain and discomfort: Common symptoms include dull pain in the lower abdomen, perineum, and lumbosacral region, which sometimes worsens after urination or when sitting for a long time.
3. Impact on sexual function: May be accompanied by erectile dysfunction, painful ejaculation, or decreased libido.
4. Systemic symptoms: Acute attacks may cause fever and fatigue, and prolonged discomfort may also affect mood and sleep.
If you experience related symptoms, please avoid self-medicating. It is recommended to record details of your symptoms and consult a urologist as soon as possible for proper examination to determine the type of symptom. In daily life, avoid prolonged sitting, reduce spicy foods, drink adequate water, and maintain a regular sleep schedule; these measures can help alleviate discomfort.
