Prostatitis can give a number of symptoms including:
Chills
Fever
Pain in the lower back, genital area and penis
Frequent, painful or burning urination
Body aches
Bone/joint pain
Painful ejaculation
Nausea
Occasionally the sufferer may be completely unable to pass urine. Prostatitis is often linked to a urinary infection, as evidenced by white blood cells and bacteria in the urine. There may also be discharge from the penis. Acute bacterial prostatitis can present as a severe illness that makes the sufferer generally unwell and result in hospitalisation.
