10 Prostatitis Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #4: Nausea
Earlier, we mentioned that prostatitis can be the result of a bacterial infection and cause flu-like symptoms. One of the symptoms most commonly associated with the flu is nausea, a queasy-sick feeling that may or may not precede vomiting.
Nausea is an indication that your body is processing something that it believes does not belong inside. In this case, the invader is bacteria that is causing inflammation of the prostate. Not everyone with prostatitis will experience vomiting in addition to their nausea, but some may. Over-the-counter or herbal antiemetics are usually enough to manage the nausea caused by prostatitis.
