Are men plagued by prostatitis behind their well-dressed clothes? In life, more and more people are suffering from prostatitis, and more and more people are beginning to want to understand this disease. What is the clinical manifestation of prostatitis? Is it just a simple case of frequent urination and urgency? no, it isn't. Let's systematically describe the clinical manifestations of prostatitis:
Type I (acute bacterial prostatitis)
The onset is acute, which can be manifested as chills and high fever, accompanied by persistent and obvious symptoms of lower urinary tract infection, such as frequency of urination, urgency of urination, pain in urination, burning sensation in urination, difficulty in urination, retention of urine, and distension and discomfort in the posterior urethra, anus, and perineum. The number of white blood cells in blood and urine increases, and bacterial culture is positive.
Type II (chronic bacterial prostatitis)
There are recurrent symptoms of lower urinary tract infection (as described above) that persist for more than 3 months.
Type III (chronic prostatitis)
The main manifestation is pain in the pelvic region, which can be seen in the perineum, penis, perianal region, urethra, pubic region, or lumbosacral region. Abnormal urination can be manifested as urgency, frequency, pain, and increased nocturia. Due to chronic pain that cannot be cured for a long time, the quality of life of patients decreases, and there may be sexual dysfunction, anxiety, depression, insomnia, memory loss, etc.
Type IV (asymptomatic prostatitis)
There are no subjective symptoms, and only evidence of inflammation is found during examinations related to the prostate.
Because there are many types of prostatitis, there are also many clinical manifestations. Male friends can determine which type of prostatitis they belong to based on their symptoms, thereby allowing symptomatic treatment. However, the multiple types of this disease determine that the treatment method is comprehensive treatment, so male friends with this disease should seek medical attention as soon as possible.
