What Could Prostate Cramps With Heaviness Suggest?

Hi lately I ve been getting cramps in the prostate region - I also noticed that when I jump I can feel my prostate, almost as if it got heavier or something. I m not sure if this problem is related to the other but i ve also been having difficulties getting a full erection. I ve been told these problems usually occur to older men but I m only 19. Do you have any idea what s happening to me?

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.

Yes, some serious prostate issues are usually seen in elderly but some meay occur in youngs as well.

These symptoms indicate in most cases prostate issues such as prostatitis or hypertrophy and rarely it may be sign of STD infection. You should avoid intercourse for till symptoms persist and drink plenty of fluids. If symptoms persist it would be good to do prostate ultrasound and check your PSA levels to rule out hypertrophy and further treatment depends on these findings.
In most cases it can be controlled with medications but sometimes, in case of tumor, open surgery is required. And severe benign hypertrophy may be managed endoscopically so you should consult urologist about appropriate options.

I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
