case analysis
It is obvious that a 16-year-old student in school who has frequent urination symptoms the other day can't continue his classes, so he must go to the toilet. There is intermittent burning sensation when urinating. At first, I felt very embarrassed, but I'm sorry, I told my mother, and then I couldn't help but lower my head and tell her. Mother rushed to the hospital for examination, and the doctor diagnosed it as prostatitis.

At the same time, they may have difficulty urinating. Compared with adults, there are few reflex pain in waist, abdomen and perineum.
Six common causes of juvenile prostatitis
1. Prepuce balanitis. Many boys have long phimosis or foreskin, which are not completely treated or cleaned, and are prone to secondary urinary tract infection, such as balanitis of foreskin. If not treated in time, inflammation will extend to the prostate and cause prostatitis.
2. Hematological infection. Repeated upper respiratory tract infection or suppurative infection cannot be cured for a long time, and the resistance is reduced. Inflammation may invade the blood locally. At this time, the prostate immunity is poor, and the possibility of secondary prostatitis is high.
3. Congenital urethral malformation. Some boys have congenital diseases such as abnormal urethral or ureteral openings, hypospadias, urethral valves, etc., which cannot be found in the condition of phimosis or excessive prepuce. However, because of stopping urine, the pressure of the urethra is high, and urine may flow back to the prostate, causing infection.
4. Excessive masturbation. Due to the increase of male hormones in adolescence, the physiological sex impulse is caused, and external adverse factors such as internet, advertising, magazines and so on cause adverse stimulation to them, which may cause excessive masturbation. The prostate is repeatedly congested, the immunity is decreased, and prostatitis is frequent.
5. Sit for a long time. Junior high school students have heavy learning tasks. They sit for a long time and oppress the pelvis, causing neuromuscular dysfunction of the pelvic floor and prostatitis.
6. Cool. The weather is unstable, hot and cold, but it is easy to get cold. Poor pelvic floor cold blood circulation and prostatitis are also inducing factors.
