Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) – Symptoms and Causes

Painful Urination

Benign prostatic hyperplasia makes the prostate grow bigger. As a result, this organ would squeeze or even partially block the urethra, the tube carrying urine out of your bladder. That’s why people with the condition might feel pain after ejaculation or during urination. In general, the sensation does not occur when you are in activities that do not involve these parts. However, some serious cases would spread to surrounding parts and trigger serious problems. [2]
