Suggest Treatment For Pelvic Pain Syndrome Due To Prostatitis

default
Posted on Tue, 28 Jan 2014
Question: Hi there - about 1 year and a half ago I experienced a situation where I had to hold my urine for some time. Later that day - I noticed some pain in my pelvic area and suddenly increased urgency and frequency of urination. This went on for several days and weeks. I was first treated for a bladder infection and then twice for prostatitis. None of the antibiotics really made it better. During this course of time - I noticed that the rigidity of my erection was decreased. I also discontinued sexual activity for about 3 months because of the pain associated with ejaculation. I eventually found someone who treated me for chronic pelvic pain and interstitial cystitis. Over the course of time - the frequency of urination dissipated and some time after that the chronic pelvic pain did also. The pelvic still comes back here and there but nothing like before. During this time it was also discovered that I had a varicocele, but this does not cause me pain on a day to day basis. However, the rigidity of my erection has never returned. I can have an erection but it isn't as hard as it was before, and at times I still have a slight bit of pain when ejaculating. Is there anything I can do to improve the erection?
