What Is Prostatitis and How It Develops
Prostatitis occurs when the prostate gland becomes inflamed or irritated, affecting urinary flow and pelvic comfort. It may be caused by bacterial infections, immune responses, pelvic muscle tension, nerve sensitivity, or underlying health conditions. Some men experience sudden intense symptoms, while others develop persistent, recurring discomfort that affects daily life. Identifying the underlying cause is essential to select the right treatment approach.
