Hi all
I was talking to an acquaintance of mine who I told about the pelvic floor problems I have or have had for the past few years. He told me one of his friends once had a hernia directly around or in (I'm not sure which one exactly) his prostate which gave him symptoms that mimic prostatitis/CPPS. Has anyone ever heard of anything like this? Is this even possible?
Also would an ultrasound of the area be sufficient to detect a hernia in this region??
thanks

hernia in or around the prostate???
Age: 25 | Onset Age: 19 | Symptoms: cloudy white urine (most frequently in the colder months of the year), pain in testicles (very infrequent and mild nowdays, used to be 24/7 and bad for like at least 1 1/2 years), pain in lower back (now virtually nonexistant, used to be 24/7), muscle spasm in perineum area (during sexual activity, extreme stress/injury, sneezing, and when changing position when lying down), dribbling after urination, weak urine stream, a feeling of not emptying completely after urination, sometimes hesitancy starting, golfball feeling in rectum at times (usually relieved/lessened by defecation), premature ejaculation, little pleasure when ejaculating too quickly from masturbating, weak erections most of the time (and even if they have some strength sometimes, usually it goes limp after a few minutes), white particulate matter in semen most of time, | Helped By: Relaxation | Worsened By: ejaculation, or any kind of sexual activity, especially prolonged arousal without touching my genitals, spicy foods, hard excercises, prolonged sitting

Re: hernia in or around the prostate???
Inguinal hernias are common but rarely painful. I suggest you read this page and have a think about it

A competent MD should be able to set your mind at rest.
