Frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, and behind the scenes prostatitis
"Frequent urination, urgency, and pain in urination are actually behind the scenes. Prostatitis is the most common male sexual dysfunction disease in men, which greatly threatens their physical health and has a significant impact on their work. Frequent urination, urgency, and pain in urination are one of the most common symptoms of prostatitis. Therefore, male friends, especially elderly male friends, should receive sufficient attention, Once you discover that you have symptoms in this area, you must promptly go to a regular public Grade A hospital for examination and treatment to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to yourself.
[Case]:
Mr. Zhang, 40, is a business manager of a real estate company. Recently, he frequently experienced discomfort symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain. At first, Mr. Zhang didn't care, thinking it was caused by high pressure or eating something bad. However, this situation lasted for a month, and instead of improving, it became more and more serious, so that Mr. Zhang could not sleep soundly at night, and as soon as he lay down, he began to urinate again. Mr. Zhang consulted online, and experts preliminarily determined that Mr. Zhang was suffering from prostatitis, and called him to the hospital for examination and diagnosis. After an expert's examination, it was found that Mr. Zhang was indeed suffering from acute prostatitis, and the "culprit" behind Mr. Zhang's restlessness in bed and food turned out to be prostatitis. Fortunately, the discovery was timely, otherwise, when the disease turned into chronic prostatitis, it would add a lot of trouble to himself.
The symptoms of acute prostatitis mainly include the following:
1. Urination discomfort: Bladder irritation can occur, such as frequent urination, urethral burning, pain, and radiation to the head of the penis during urination.
2. Local symptoms: discomfort of falling and swelling of the posterior urethra, perineum, and anus, aggravation of squatting, defecation, and prolonged sitting on chairs and stools.
3. Radiation pain: The pain of chronic prostatitis is not limited to the urethra and perineum, but also radiates into the vicinity. The following types of low back pain are most common.
4. Sexual dysfunction: Chronic prostatitis can cause decreased libido and pain in ejaculation, premature ejaculation, and affect semen quality. After urination or during defecation, it can also cause white discharge from the urethral orifice, and when combined with seminal vesiculitis, it can cause blood semen.
The routes of prostate infection are generally as follows:
1. Direct spread through the urethra: Bacteria enter the urethra through the urethral orifice and then enter the prostate gland through a prostate catheter, causing acute or chronic prostatitis.
2. Infection through blood circulation: Pathogenic bacteria from infected areas elsewhere in the body can circulate through the blood to the prostate and cause prostatitis.
3. Lymphatic infection: Inflammation adjacent to the prostate, such as the rectum, colon, bladder, and urethra, causes prostatitis through lymphatic channels
Causes of urgency, frequency, and pain in urination:
1. Reproductive infection disease: Causes pathological changes and impaired function of the reproductive and urinary system organs. Male reproductive infections include urethritis, mycoplasma infection, chlamydia infection, and some communicable diseases. The main symptoms of reproductive infections include frequent urination, urgency, pain in urination, difficulty urinating, and other common symptoms.
2. Prostatitis: Patients can manifest as frequent urination, urgency, pain in urination, discomfort in urination, burning sensation in urination, and often milky white secretion at the urethral orifice.
3. Prostatic hyperplasia: When a person reaches middle age, their secretory function continues to decline, resulting in hyperplasia that compresses the posterior urethra, causing a series of problems such as frequent nocturnal urination, urgency, and endless dripping of urine. Urination problems in patients with hyperplasia are caused by urethral obstruction or weak bladder contractions, which pose significant health hazards.
Warm reminder: Some related knowledge about frequent urination, urgency, and pain in men can be seen as a major symptom of prostatitis. Therefore, if male friends discover that they have related symptoms, they must go to a regular hospital to check for the disease and be treated as soon as possible. When seeing a rash, they must not go to a private small clinic to avoid misdiagnosis and mistreatment.
