< b>Bacterial prostatitis, chronic- Longstanding bacterial infection of the
prostate gland superimposed on a defect in the prostate. (The prostate is a small
organ below the bladder which surrounds the urethra, the tube that carries urine
down from the bladder.) The symptoms can include low back pain, discomfort in the
perineum (the area between the anus and the genitalia), testicular pain and, if
the infection spreads to the bladder, mild pain or burning on urination (dysuria)
and frequent and urgent need to urinate (frequency and urgency). The presence of
white blood cells and bacteria in the urine attests to the fact that the urinary
tract is infected with bacteria.
The defect in the prostate is the focal point for the persistent infection. Effective
treatment requires identification and correction of this defect before antibiotics
can be effective.
