What Causes Difficulty In Urinating And Getting An Erection?

Yes I am a 32yr old male. I am having difficulty urinating and have been having difficulty for some time now. When I do go and think I am done I continue to have a small amount come out. I am also unable to get an erection. For the past couple of weeks I have been experiencing pain in my lower back and hips that seems worse at night. My father had prostate problems and I am concerned..... However I know it would be very rare at my age...... Is it possible? I see my doctor next week Monday

Hello dear
Understand your concern
I think you have enlarged prostate that cause difficulty in urinating and erection problem. Enlarge prostate compress the urethra and lead to difficulty in urine. And it cause sometime erection problem and delayed/retrograde ejaculation.
I advice you to consult the urologist and get the done proper investigations to diagnose prostate problem. Blood PSA level, USG, rectal examination should be done.
Doctor may give tamsulosin for treatment. If not responds to drug then surgery should be done.
As prostate problems resolves, erection problem goes away.
Other cuase of erction problem like psychiatric problem, diabetes, hypertension, alcohol and smoking, obesity should be rule out.
Start regular exercise, take healthy diet with high protein, antioxidant items like almond, fresh fruits and Tablet Co Q.
You can also take siledenafil tablet for erection after proper evaluation.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
