Signs Of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Urinary Tract Infection

While urinary tract infections (UTIs) are uncommon in men, benign prostatic hyperplasia makes developing a UTI more likely. This is because the bladder can't empty completely after urinating which increases the risk of a urinary tract infection. When urine remains in the bladder, bacteria can better grow and develop into an infection. A UTI comes with its own symptoms including a frequent and intense need to urinate, cloudy and foul-smelling urine, a burning sensation during urination, pain in the lower abdomen, and fever.

Urinary tract infections are very uncommon in men under fifty but about twenty to fifty percent of men after the age fifty experience at least one UTI and it's usually associated with an enlarged prostate or prostatitis.
