Your Body Is Speaking
There is a burning where nothing was before. A dull pressure between the perineum and lower abdomen, a pulling sensation when urinating, sometimes a sharp pain during ejaculation. The prostate — that small, chestnut-sized organ deep in the pelvis — is inflamed. Medically: a bacterial infection, a chronic irritation, a pelvic floor pain with no clear pathogen finding. The urologist palpates, measures, prescribes antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medication. Sometimes it helps. Sometimes the burning returns. And again. And again.
