Cause #4: Prostatitis
Prostatitis, or infection of the prostate, is a problem that affects men. The prostate is the walnut-sized gland located right below the bladder. It is involved in the production of semen. The prostate also provides the sperm with nutrition and helps transport it throughout the body.
Prostatitis occurs when the prostate becomes swollen and inflamed. When the prostate becomes inflamed, it presses against the bladder, which can make urination painful or uncomfortable.
