Rectal Pain or Itching

Occasionally, an infection in the prostate ("prostatitis") can cause symptoms in the rectum or buttock. Please review the following symptoms that suggest a prostate problem:

• pain in the penis or testicles

• frequent urinating

• burning upon urinating

• difficulty starting your urine stream or inability to pass urine

• cloudiness or blood in the urine

• blood in your semen

• pain when you ejaculate.

Do you have one or more of these symptoms?

Yes I have one or more symptoms that suggest prostatitis.

No, I do not have these symptoms.
