Speaking of prostatitis, I can't help but think of a little joke. In the waiting room of the hospital, my aunt asked my uncle, "Which county is Qianlie County? Is it far away?" My uncle thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, why are you asking this?" My aunt whispered, "Don't tell anyone. Just now, the doctor told the person in front of me that Qianlie County has salt, and I want to go get some!"
What are the symptoms of prostatitis?
Patients with prostatitis can have systemic symptoms such as aversion to cold, fever, and fatigue. The local symptom is a feeling of heavy pressure in the perineum or suprapubic region, which worsens during prolonged sitting or defecation, and radiates to the waist, lower abdomen, back, and thigh. If there is a small abscess formation, the pain increases and defecation is not possible. Urethral symptoms include burning sensation during urination, urgency in urination, frequent urination, and may be accompanied by terminal hematuria or purulent urethral secretions. The symptoms of the rectum are distended rectum, urgency in defecation, and a feeling of defecation. During defecation, white secretions can flow from the urethral orifice.

Decreased sexual function:
Prostatitis can also lead to the consequences of sexual dysfunction such as impotence and premature ejaculation. If untreated for a long time, it will directly affect the feeling and quality of sexual life. In the long run, patients will lose confidence in sexual life, leading to a decline in sexual function.

Chronic nephritis and uremia:
"If prostatitis is not treated in a timely manner, it can lead to hyperplasia of the prostate, making urine not completely empty, and residual urine can appear.". Residual urine is a good medium for bacterial reproduction, which can easily lead to urinary tract infections such as inflammation such as pyelonephritis, which can develop into nephritis and eventually into uremia.

Endocrine disorder
In general, the prostate gland can secrete a variety of active substances, enabling the body's endocrine system to work normally. When inflammation occurs, it can cause patients to experience endocrine disorders, often manifested as dizziness, fatigue, slow thinking, insomnia, dreaminess, memory loss, and other symptoms.
four
Affect fertility
The harm of prostatitis is also manifested in its impact on fertility. In severe cases, it can lead to infertility. Prolonged chronic inflammation can cause changes in the composition of prostate fluid, which can affect the liquefaction time of semen, reduce sperm activity, and lead to infertility.
