Can you feel the prostate with your hand?

Normally, you cannot touch the prostate gland with your own hands. The prostate gland is a male-specific organ that is mainly responsible for secreting prostate fluid to form semen, nourishing sperm, and controlling urination and ejaculation. The prostate is attached to the bladder and backed by the rectum. It is usually difficult to feel the outline of the prostate. If there is inflammation, hyperplasia, or enlargement, the doctor can determine the condition of the prostate by sticking a finger into the anus and touching the back of the prostate with the fingertips. For men, if there are some abnormal symptoms, such as urinary urgency, frequent urination, waiting for urine, etc., it may be related to prostate disease. You should seek medical advice for further examination, clarify the cause with the help of your doctor, and carry out targeted treatment or therapy.
