Inflammation of the prostate gland is called prostatitis. Types of prostatitis include chronic prostatitis (the most common), acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, and asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis.
Symptoms can range from severe (lower back pain, painful/difficult urination, fevers, chills) to no symptoms at all (asymptomatic). Pain can travel to other nearby areas, such as the testicles.

"Dr. Kraus and his team are top notch in all respects, from diagnosis through treatment, procedures, ultrasound, care management and follow-up on each of my urological issues, including kidney stones and prostate inflammation."
"I found Dr. McCahill to be a wonderful choice after searching for a prostate doctor. During my visit, he was very thorough, caring, and extremely helpful to me with the problems I presented to him. I'll stick with him in the future."
"I first met Dr. Corea for an annoying and painful medical problem which through tests that Dr. Corea gave me turned out to be a couple of stones and an enlarged prostate problem. Dr. Corea performed two procedures on me by laser to break the stone and the Green Laser surgery to open my prostate passageway. I'm now pain free and able to urinate very fast and easily. I would recommend Dr. Corea to everyone - he is caring and knows what he is doing. Thank you, Dr. Corea - A+ rating from me."
"Dr. Geffin is an outstanding, caring doctor. He's always very clear with me and double checks to make sure he's answered all my questions. I never feel rushed by him. He's also very down to Earth and has a good sense of humor which puts me at ease during some stressful times. I highly recommend him!"
"Everyone from Dr. Lin to all the support staff was very professional and made me feel comfortable."
