Chronic prostatitis is a fairly common, non-life-threatening condition. There are three types of prostatitis with clinical symptoms: acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, and chronic non-bacterial prostatitis. Symptoms of prostatitis include pain in the pelvic region such as the perineum, perianal area, urethra, suprapubic, inguinal, and lumbosacral regions, and urinary symptoms such as frequency, urgency, and effort to urinate, but they may not be present in every patient.
