Can Swelling In Prostate Causes Ejaculation Problems?

I am a 31 year old male. I decided to stop masturbating over a year ago. I would average around 3-4 times per week. I have sex with my wife 2-3 times per month. Around the same time I stopped masturbating I noticed I was having increasingly frequent pain in my abdomen, back, and testes. I noticed it would happen after I would use the restroom on some occasions. I also found wearing my belt too tight would cause me pain as well. I visited a specialist and he said my prostate was slightly swollen and had me try some antibiotics for 2 weeks. There was no noticable difference. He wanted to use a scope on my urethra but I wanted to wait to see if the condition would go away with time. I started noticing that the pain would go away for about 2 days after having sex. There was one week that we had sex 3 days in a row and the pain was gone for close to 5 days. I also noticed that being aroused for an extended amount of time would cause me pain. I feel like I am experiencing a severe case of blue balls would it be possible for me to have prostate issues related to not ejaculating enough?

Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Yes, ejaculation comes from various glands and consist if prostatic secretion, epididymis secretion etc. Socif any part is infected secretion won't be good in quantity.

I suspect that your secretion is not in good quantity because of the prostatic infection or pathology.

If this is not solved even by drug intake then you should be examined by urethroscopy. Your doctors decision is right at this point of time.

Over all avoid dirty habits causing you more infected on prostate gland.

If your balls becoming blue then you should also examine for the ultrasound examination of the genital area.

Once you correct the associated pathology your swelling will go.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
