&lt;h1 data-start=&quot;164&quot; data-end=&quot;215&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prostatitis: That Pesky Prostate Panic Button&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;217&quot; data-end=&quot;572&quot;&gt;Imagine your prostate as a tiny security guard stationed below your bladder&amp;mdash;usually calm and doing its job. But when things go awry, it&amp;rsquo;s like your security guard suddenly starts flipping light switches and sounding alarms for no apparent reason. That&amp;rsquo;s &lt;strong data-start=&quot;471&quot; data-end=&quot;486&quot;&gt;prostatitis&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;mdash;inflammation or infection of the prostate that can cause surprisingly big annoyances.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;217&quot; data-end=&quot;572&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 data-start=&quot;579&quot; data-end=&quot;601&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who Gets It?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;603&quot; data-end=&quot;811&quot;&gt;Guys aged &lt;strong data-start=&quot;613&quot; data-end=&quot;622&quot;&gt;30&amp;ndash;50&lt;/strong&gt; are most commonly hit, but prostatitis can surprise men of any age. It&amp;rsquo;s more common than you think&amp;mdash;and often more embarrassing to talk about, which is why it tends to fly under the radar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;603&quot; data-end=&quot;811&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 data-start=&quot;818&quot; data-end=&quot;854&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Four Faces of Prostatitis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h4 data-start=&quot;856&quot; data-end=&quot;915&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Acute Bacterial Prostatitis &amp;ndash; &amp;ldquo;Hit by Lightning&amp;rdquo;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;916&quot; data-end=&quot;1088&quot;&gt;This is the full-blown, fever-thumping, chills-shaking version. It&amp;rsquo;s like your prostate decided to throw a skin-crawling, fever-inducing party&amp;mdash;and forgot to invite the fun.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;1090&quot; data-end=&quot;1111&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Symptoms include:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1114&quot; data-end=&quot;1149&quot;&gt;High &lt;strong data-start=&quot;1119&quot; data-end=&quot;1128&quot;&gt;fever&lt;/strong&gt; and intense chills&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1152&quot; data-end=&quot;1188&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;1152&quot; data-end=&quot;1170&quot;&gt;Frequent trips&lt;/strong&gt; to the bathroom&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1191&quot; data-end=&quot;1230&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;1191&quot; data-end=&quot;1202&quot;&gt;Burning&lt;/strong&gt; or difficulty when peeing&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1233&quot; data-end=&quot;1268&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;1233&quot; data-end=&quot;1266&quot;&gt;Cloudy or foul-smelling urine&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1271&quot; data-end=&quot;1323&quot;&gt;Naggy aches in the penis, testicles, or lower back&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1326&quot; data-end=&quot;1356&quot;&gt;Feeling like absolute &lt;strong data-start=&quot;1348&quot; data-end=&quot;1356&quot;&gt;crap&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;1358&quot; data-end=&quot;1445&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;1361&quot; data-end=&quot;1382&quot;&gt;Medical HQ Alert:&lt;/strong&gt; This can spiral into serious infections. Go see a doctor&amp;mdash;fast.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4 data-start=&quot;1452&quot; data-end=&quot;1526&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis &amp;ndash; &amp;ldquo;That Annoying Background Tune&amp;rdquo;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;1527&quot; data-end=&quot;1645&quot;&gt;Less dramatic than its acute cousin, but oh-so-persistent. Picture a drip-drip annoying leak&amp;mdash;you just can&amp;rsquo;t ignore it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;1647&quot; data-end=&quot;1672&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;1647&quot; data-end=&quot;1672&quot;&gt;Symptoms may include:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1675&quot; data-end=&quot;1725&quot;&gt;Ongoing &lt;strong data-start=&quot;1683&quot; data-end=&quot;1723&quot;&gt;pain during urination or ejaculation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1728&quot; data-end=&quot;1770&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;1728&quot; data-end=&quot;1746&quot;&gt;Frequent urges&lt;/strong&gt; even with tiny output&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1773&quot; data-end=&quot;1813&quot;&gt;Occasional &lt;strong data-start=&quot;1784&quot; data-end=&quot;1793&quot;&gt;blood&lt;/strong&gt; in semen or urine&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;1816&quot; data-end=&quot;1871&quot;&gt;Dull discomfort in the groin, perineum, or lower back&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;1873&quot; data-end=&quot;1983&quot;&gt;Often caused by stubborn UTIs or STIs that make themselves at home in the prostate. STD screening? Smart move.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4 data-start=&quot;1990&quot; data-end=&quot;2045&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (Non-Bacterial)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;2046&quot; data-end=&quot;2191&quot;&gt;Prostate inflammation with &lt;strong data-start=&quot;2073&quot; data-end=&quot;2088&quot;&gt;no bacteria&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;mdash;it&amp;rsquo;s like your security guard is on high alert for an imaginary threat. Total mystery, total nuisance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;2193&quot; data-end=&quot;2310&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;2193&quot; data-end=&quot;2206&quot;&gt;Symptoms:&lt;/strong&gt; Like chronic prostatitis but without infection. Discomfort, urinary issues, sexual woes&amp;mdash;no clear cause.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4 data-start=&quot;2317&quot; data-end=&quot;2386&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Asymptomatic Inflammatory Prostatitis &amp;ndash; &amp;ldquo;Undercover Mode&amp;rdquo;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;2387&quot; data-end=&quot;2538&quot;&gt;No symptoms. Nothing. Zilch. But tests reveal inflammation. It&amp;rsquo;s stealth mode at its best. Typically discovered during fertility workups or PSA checks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;2387&quot; data-end=&quot;2538&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;td style=&quot;width: 564px;&quot; data-start=&quot;3614&quot; data-end=&quot;3672&quot; data-col-size=&quot;md&quot;&gt;Often no treatment, but regular monitoring recommended&lt;/td&gt;

&lt;h2 data-start=&quot;2545&quot; data-end=&quot;2579&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to Diagnose Prostatitis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p data-start=&quot;2581&quot; data-end=&quot;2640&quot;&gt;To catch that rogue security guard in the act, doctors may:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li data-start=&quot;2644&quot; data-end=&quot;2706&quot;&gt;&lt;strong data-start=&quot;2644&quot; data-end=&quot;2674&quot;&gt;Digital Rectal Exam (DRE):&lt;/strong&gt; Yup, the classic finger-check&lt;/li&gt;
