Medical Forum / General / General / February 2007Is this still Prostatitis?
Hi all, I was diagnosed with prostatitis 2 years ago. I was treated with antibiotics which appeared to help. I've occasionally felt prostatitis symptoms since, but they have come and gone. I have very pronounced symptoms right now, and would appreciate if any of you think it sounds like it's still prostatitis: - burning pain in my right abdomen and urethra when urinating - pain in the rectum - pain in the testicles Is there any other condition that could account for this? Thanks, Paul Per Paul: >I have very pronounced symptoms right now, and would appreciate if any >of you think it sounds like it's still prostatitis: [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > >Is there any other condition that could account for this? Dunno and wouldn't trust information in a NG from a stranger anyhow. But I would observe that if it's a prostatic infection you need to get yourself to a competent urologist ASAP and start in on an antibiotic that has significant prostatic penetration. You *really* don't want those infectious organisms to get any deeper into your prostate than absolutely necessary. I say this having suffered from more-or-less chronic prostatitis for many years - mainly, I believe, due to inadequate treatment of my first infections.
