Bacterial prostatitis is categorized into acute and chronic, and its most obvious symptoms are somewhat different. Acute bacterial prostatitis manifests itself as chills and high fever, suprapubic pain, bladder irritation, and difficulty urinating. Chronic bacterial prostatitis is characterized by pain and discomfort in the perineum and abnormal urination.
1. Acute bacterial prostatitis:
(1) chills and high fever: it is a more common systemic symptom, caused by the rapid multiplication of bacteria into the bloodstream and the production of toxins.
(2) Suprapubic pain: due to acute bacterial infection will lead to obvious congestion and edema of the prostate, which will involve the surrounding tissues.
(3) Bladder irritation: Frequent urination, urinary urgency, and painful urination often occur due to the inflammation of the prostate gland which can irritate the bladder, thus triggering these symptoms.
(4) Difficulty in urination: Inflammation caused by bacteria leads to congestion and edema of the prostate gland, which compresses the urethra and can cause difficulty in urination.
2. Chronic bacterial prostatitis:
(1) Perineal pain: mainly due to chronic inflammation of the prostate gland affecting local blood circulation disorders and irritation, thus causing pain or soreness.
(2) Abnormal urination: mainly manifested as urinary urgency, urinary frequency, urinary pain and urinary divergence, etc., related to the excessive contraction of the urethral sphincter and the stimulation of the pelvic floor muscles.
(3) white dripping, bloody semen: chronic bacterial prostatitis after urination and often after the white secretion from the urethra outflow, commonly known as urethral urethral “white dripping”.
The actual fact is, when the above mentioned symptoms occur, you should go to the regular hospital and follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
