If you have recurrent pelvic area pain or discomfort, abnormal urination, etc. for a long time, you must pay attention to the possibility of being entangled in chronic prostatitis. If the related symptoms affect the quality of life of the patient, it is recommended to visit the urology department of the hospital in time.
Many chronic prostatitis patients are confused as to why suffering from chronic prostatitis can be painful. In fact, it is related to these factors.
First, abnormal urinary function.
Some chronic prostatitis patients will have urinary frequency, urinary urgency, painful urination, incomplete urination and other urinary abnormalities, which belong to the performance of abnormal urinary function. The pain of chronic prostatitis can be caused by urinary dysfunction. The cause of pain caused by chronic prostatitis due to urethral dysfunction is mainly urinary reflux.
Second, nerve dysfunction.
Patients with chronic prostatitis experience pain not only because of the prostate itself, but may also be related to abnormalities in its painful neuromodulatory mechanisms and lesions in the conduction pathways.
Third, immune response factors
The body’s immune system is stimulated, CD4T cells are activated, and a series of cytotoxic effects mediated by cells and cytokines cause pathological changes in the prostate, resulting in local pain.
Fourth, psychological factors
Many patients with chronic prostatitis have negative emotions such as depression and anxiety, which may cause autonomic disorders through specific loops and trigger pain in the pelvic region.
All four of these reasons may be the cause of pain in patients with chronic prostatitis.
In fact, in most cases, if the symptoms associated with chronic prostatitis do not affect the quality of the patient’s daily life, no special treatment is needed. If you feel that your life is being affected, it is advisable to go to a hospital urology department for consultation and treatment.
