The 4 main types of prostatitis are acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic prostatitis, and asymptomatic prostatitis.

 

Acute Bacterial Prostatitis


A bacterial infection is a common cause of the severe condition known as acute bacterial prostatitis, which manifests symptoms suddenly.

  • Trouble Urinating 
  • Cloudy Urine 
  • Pain around the penis and testicles 

 

Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis 


Chronic bacterial prostatitis is a less severe bacterial infection that happens to older men. The symptoms may often come and go. The causes of chronic bacterial prostatitis are often linked to UTIs in males and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). An STD screening can determine the cause of chronic bacterial prostatitis.

  • Blood in semen or urine 
  • Pain around the lower back and genital areas 

 

Chronic Prostatitis or Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS)


Chronic prostatitis is also known as chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS). It is the most typical type of prostate inflammation that results from stress, trauma, nerve irritation, or other medical conditions.

The common symptoms of chronic bacterial prostatitis are:

  • Pain in the genitals and pelvic area 
  • Trouble Urinating 
  • Painful ejaculation 
  • Painful urination 
  • Pain in the lower back 

 

Asymptomatic Prostatitis

Diagnosing Prostatitis 


Different types of prostatitis require different tests, such as urine tests, blood tests, ultrasounds, or X-rays.

A doctor may perform a physical check for prostate and lymph node swelling.
