Prostatitis is a common prostate problem. It comes with two types. Acute and chronic bacterial.
Acute prostatitis is a bacterial infection. It usually starts all of a sudden. If you suddenly get a fever, chills, or pain in the lower back and between the legs, and feel painful when you urinate, see your doctor right away. He or she can prescribe medicine to make you feel better.
Chronic bacterial prostatitis is an infection that comes back again and again. Unlike the acute prostatitis, this problem can be hard to treat. Sometimes taking antibiotics for a long time may work. Talk with your doctor about other things you can do to help you feel better.
