Burning

[Marine]

Greetings: first time on board. I had seed implants on 09 Jan., 2004. For Prostate Cancer. Ever since, I've experiened a weak stream, and burning sensation at urination...which is frequent. Has anyone had any similar problems / If so, how did you deal with it? My Urologist has no idea. Take two Advil every four hours. Doesn'r wotk. Thanks for your time. Semper Fi. Don

This is a highly focused forum that deals with chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS) aka pelvic myoneuropathy (PM) and male interstitial cystitis (IC).

I am no expert on prostate cancer and the side effects of its treatment methods, but I have read that soreness and slight bleeding, as well as more frequent or uncomfortable urination are common side effects of radioactive seed implant therapy. The good news is that decreases with time.
