Took Benedryl. Having Lower Back Pain, Sensation Of Bladder Fullness. Worried For BPH Or Prostatitis

Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have sensation of your Bladder being always filled with urine,and feeling to empty it frequently, and loss of sex drive ..
This is mostly due to chronic Prostatitis.
However this can be confirmed only on clinical and digital rectal examination.
Please undergo following test to come to conclusion.
1) Routine Urine Test.
2) Ultrasound Scanning as a preliminary test to reveal any pathology in bladder and size of the Prostate.
3) Microscopic examination of fluid after prostatic massage to detect the causative organisms.
You will need help of a Urologist to do prostrate massage in order to get this fluid for examination.
Consult qualified Urologist for examination and further treatment.
In the mean while you may require antibiotics like combination of Trimethoprim with Sulphsmethoxazole. Please visit your family physician for a prescription. You may need to take these medications for a long time may be for 2-3 months as Chronic Prostatitis takes long time to get cured.
There is no obvious co relation of getting this sensation after exercise and does not have clinical significance.
Hope I have answered your query.
Please feel free to ask if you have any more questions I shall be happy to help you.
Thanks with Regards.
