Prostatitis Diagnosis Help
Posted: 03-23-06 22:30pm

Hi everyone,

can anyone help me? I did some research on the internet and finally found some possible answers for a problem that has been with me a while.

Sometimes after I ejaculate, I have an uncomfortable pain in my penis, between the testes and anus and up into my pelvis/groin area. I can liken the pain to a combination of "mild burning" and "the need to pee a little bit" as well as "general discomfort". My ejaculate usually has a yellowish colour to it. Sometimes after I have urinated while having a full bladder, I have pain standing upright, as if there is a short string attached to two different points inside me, and if I do stand up straight, the points at which they are attached will tear.

After reading on the internet about prostatitis and its variants I felt pretty sure this was the problem, however I would really like to hear from anyone else who has experienced these symptoms or similar and what they found out their problems were, as well as their treatment.

Please help, thankyou.

I have the prostate disease and I am 21. I had the same type of problems with pain in my pelvis/groin area. I recommend seeing a family doctor first then they might appoint to to see a urologist. Although my problems did get really bad for awhile. Now everything seems fine. The whole problem never made sense to me at all. Because I didnt understand why sometimes it would bother me and other times not.

Hi there,

thanks for your reply! I am 27 and i'm not entirely sure if I do have this disorder or not. I'm hesitant to go to a doctor because I currently live in taiwan and I don't trust the medical profession here.

You said everything seems fine for you now.... Did you see a doctor? If so, what were the results and what was the eventual treatment for you?

I hope you can let me know,

thanks.

I seen my doctor along time ago and I got consulted to a urologist. And I was diagnosed with prostadynia. After ejaculation I would have groin pain, upper leg pain, pain around scrotum, and sometiems burning when ejaculating. It caused me to be depressed and it seemed to make it worse or like it was playing a trick on my mind. There is no treatment. Painkillers dont even work. It's basically over-sensitive nerves around the prostate.

Wow - thats exactly the pains I use to get.

Can I ask you when you get the pains ?

I use to get the pains after several hours of having an erection, but ive since had erection problems, and so the pain does not exist anymore.

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome is the most common but least understood form of prostatitis. It is found in men of any age, its symptoms go away and then return without warning, and it may be inflammatory or noninflammatory. In the inflammatory form, urine, semen, and other fluids from the prostate show no evidence of a known infecting organism but do contain the kinds of cells the body usually produces to fight infection. In the noninflammatory form, no evidence of inflammation, including infection-fighting cells, is present.

Antibiotics will not help nonbacterial prostatitis. You may have to work with your doctor to find a treatment that's good for you. Changing your diet or taking warm baths may help. Your doctor may give you a medicine called an alpha blocker to relax the muscle tissue in the prostate. No single solution works for everyone with this condition
