Article Excerpts about Prostatitis
Prostatitis is inflammation of the prostate gland that results
in urinary frequency and urgency, burning or painful urination
(dysuria), and pain in the lower back and genital area, among other
symptoms. In some cases, prostatitis is caused by bacterial infection and
can be treated with antibiotics. But the more common forms of prostatitis
are not associated with any known infecting organism. Antibiotics are
often ineffective in treating the nonbacterial forms of prostatitis.
