Overview

Prostatitis must be differentiated from various other diseases on the basis of symptoms like dysuria. The differential diagnosis includes acute cystitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic abscess, bladder cancer, urinary tract stones, and a foreign body within the urinary tract.[1]

Differentiating Prostatitis from other Diseases

Prostatitis must be differentiated from:[1]

Differential Diagnosis on the basis of Urinary Symptoms

Prostatitis can be differentiated from other diseases that cause lower urinary tract irritation symptoms, such as: dysuria, urgency and frequency in addition to urethral discharge , the differential list include: urethritis, pyelonephritis, cystitis, cervicitis, vulvovaginitis, epididimitis and syphilis.[2][3][4][5]


Disease Findings
Cystitis Bladder inflammation, Features with increased frequency and urgency, dysuria, and suprapubic pain. Is more common among women. E.coli is the most common pathogen[6][7][8][9].
Urethritis infection of the urethra,causes dysuria and urethral discharge[4][10][11]
Bacterial vulvovaginitis Presents with dysuria and pruritus, Vaginal discharge and odor are almost always present, caused by Gardnerella species[12].
Cervicitis Often asymptomatic,some women have an abnormal vaginal discharge and vaginal bleeding (especially after sexual intercourse)[13]
Prostatitis bacterial infection of the prostate,causes discomfort during ejaculation[14]
Epididymitis Presents with scrotal pain and swelling accompanied by fever and lower urinary tract irritation symptoms(dysuria and frequency)[15].
Syphilis Presents with generalized systemic symptoms such as malaise, fatigue, headache and fever. Skin eruptions may be subtle and asymptomatic. It is classically described as 1) non-pruritic bilateral symmetrical mucocutaneous rash; 2) non-tender regional lymphadenopathy; 3) condylomata lata; and 4) patchy alopecia.[3]
