    Whether you are a man or a woman, the human body has a urinary system. When the water and nutrients produced by the metabolism of tissue cells enter the kidneys, they are filtered by the kidneys and become urine. Normal excretion of urine will also affect the body. If urination is not smooth, the electrolyte balance of the body will also be damaged. So what causes men to have difficulty urinating?

    Prostatitis is a disease that often occurs in men. After the patient has prostatitis, he will have difficulty urinating and urinating. The patient must be treated immediately. Prostatitis will become more difficult to treat when it becomes malignant.

    2. Prostatic hyperplasia

    When a man's prostate enlarges, it is easy to block the urethral opening. At this time, the patient's urethra is blocked and he needs to use more force when urinating, which will also aggravate the prostate hyperplasia, which is polarizing.

Insufficient urination may cause posterior urethritis. Now many men experience loss of sexual desire.

    2. Chronic renal failure

    If men suffering from urinary obstruction do not receive medical treatment, the genitourinary infection may turn into chronic infection, and long-term inflammation may lead to chronic renal failure, which must be paid attention to.
