What are the symptoms of prostatitis?

  Some people have prostatitis but have no obvious symptoms of discomfort; others have symptoms similar to those of a urinary tract infection. These symptoms include painful urination, inability to empty the bladder of urine or significantly more frequent urination than normal (also called frequent urination). When urinary frequency is significant, patients urinate more often at night, often disrupting sleep.  There are other symptoms of prostatitis, including pain in the penis, testicles or other parts of the pelvis, pain during or after ejaculation, and in some patients with acute prostatitis, chills and fever.  Of course, other diseases can also have the symptoms mentioned above, which is why it is important to see a medical professional to determine if you have prostatitis, what type of prostatitis you have and what treatment is best.
