Rectal fingerprinting with pressure on the prostate with a desire to urinate without pain may be the result of a mildly enlarged prostate or inflammation of the prostate. When the prostate gland is mildly enlarged, rectal fingerprinting may cause irritation of the prostate tissue, resulting in a desire to urinate but possibly no pain. When there is inflammation of the prostate tissue, there may be varying degrees of congestion and edema, and the urge to urinate may be present but there may be no localized pain when pressure is applied during a rectal exam. Rectal examination can be used to determine whether the prostate tissue is diseased or not. If there is a desire to urinate but no pain when pressing during the examination, other tests such as ultrasound of the prostate can be performed to make a definitive diagnosis. If the prostate gland is found to be enlarged or inflamed, it is necessary to consult a doctor in time for treatment and pay attention to frequent urination and eat a light diet.
