Thanks for contacting HCM with you health question
You describe having acute prostate infection last year and since then having continue pain in the rectum and after ejaculation. Prostatitis is frequently cause by a urinary tract infection that also infects the prostate. Even after treatment the prostate can become chronically infected. Your symptoms are consistent with a chronic prostate infection. In my practice I will treat men with chronic prostatitis for 4-12 weeks of antibiotics and then a low dose suppressive antibiotic. This usually takes the symptoms away. I recommend for you to seek medical attention with a urologist to be tested and treated.
