Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .
Frequency for urination ,painful ejaculation .burning urination that you have strongly suggest active infection of Prostate (prostatitis)


Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical and digital examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen and pelvis
3) Serum PSA.
4) Semen Examination and culture
5) Swab test of urethral discharge obtained after digital prostate massage .

In the mean while start taking antibiotic like Doxicycline along with anti inflammatory medicine like Diclofenac twice daily .You will need to take these drugs for 4-6 weeks

Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
