Introduction
The prostate may be small, but it plays a big role in men’s health. Prostate issues can sneak up on you, so knowing the warning signs is important.
1. Trouble Peeing
If it takes a long time to start urinating or you feel like you cannot empty your bladder, your prostate could be contributing.
2. Weak or Dribbling Stream
A weak, interrupted, or dribbling stream can be a sign of an enlarged prostate or another urinary concern.
3. Waking Up to Pee at Night
Frequent nighttime urination can be an early warning sign of prostate issues.
4. Pain or Burning When You Pee
Pain or burning can be a sign of infection, inflammation, or another prostate-related issue.
5. Blood in Your Urine or Semen
Blood in urine or semen is never something to ignore. It should be evaluated by a medical provider.
