Male Organ Pain May Signal Prostatitis
by John Dugan OwnerUrinating is supposed to
be no big deal – just unzip, aim and shoot. But sometimes things don’t go
exactly that way, such as when a guy finds that urinating is accompanied by
male organ pain – a burning sensation, perhaps. And sometimes there’s male
organ pain even when not urinating, making a guy feel even more nervous about
the state of his male organ health. Many things can be responsible for male
organ pain – including prostatitis.
About prostatitis
As most men may deduce from its name, prostatitis is a medical
condition involving the prostate gland. The prostate is a small gland, about
the size of a walnut, which is located directly below the bladder and in front
of the rectal opening. Only men carry a prostate gland, for the perfectly
sensible reason that it plays a significant role in creating reproductive
fluid.
Simply put, prostatitis means that the prostate has become swollen
and inflamed. And that can cause a few problems.
Symptoms
Symptoms commonly associated with prostatitis include, as
mentioned above:
1) Pain in the member,
either when urinating or when at rest – or both;
2) Difficulty urinating,
such as “dribbling” or may experience difficulty getting things going;
3) The need to urinate
more often than usual greater urgency;
4) Cloudy or pinkish urine
(indicating the presence of blood);
5) Blood in the
reproductive fluid and/or painful emissions.
In addition to these symptoms, a man may experience pain near the
member – in the perineum, in the balls themselves, or in the stomach or pelvis.
Occasionally, there may be some general aches and pains that can resemble flu
symptoms. Sometimes men with prostatitis may experience reproductive problems.
Causes
So, prostatitis is a real pain – but what brings it about? Much is
still being learned about it, but one of the most common causes of prostatitis
is a bacterial infection. Sometimes that bacteria the result of an STI. But
more often it is bacteria which is not transmitted by a partner. For example,
bacteria in urine may leak into the prostate, causing the infection. This may
happen for several reasons, one of them being not completely eliminating urine
from the body when urinating.
Sometimes trauma to the lower urinary tract might cause nerve
damage that creates a non-bacterial form of prostatitis.
Treatment
When the cause of prostatitis is bacterial, doctors typically
prescribe antibiotics to treat it. Most often this takes the form of a 4-to-6
week course of oral antibiotics. Severe or persistent cases may require an IV
form of antibiotics. Alpha blockers and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory
medications may also be used to help deal with pain symptoms. Sometimes
lifestyle changes – such as eliminating certain foods or drinks, utilizing warm
water baths, etc. – may also be recommended.
The male organ pain associated with prostatitis may require that
the member be given soothing treatments to help ease the soreness. Regular use
of a first rate male organ health crème (health professionals recommend
Man 1 Man Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) may
help. For example, often making sure the member is well-moisturized can prove
soothing, in which case a crème that includes both a high-end emollient (such
as shea butter) and a natural hydrator (such as vitamin E) is urged. In
addition, a crème with L-arginine can help to allow manhood blood vessels to
more easily expand, thereby providing nutrients and oxygen to nourish and
strengthen manhood cells.
