With all the talk about the dangers of BPH i.e. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia/enlarged prostate, every man would benefit from learning more about swollen prostate symptoms. The function of the prostrate is to generate the fluid that constitutes the major part of semen. The prostate is located near the urethra and the bladder; once it is inflamed the prostate starts squeezing these two organs. As such, the symptoms of this condition are related to the compromising of the functions of the urethra, bladder and the prostate itself.

Swollen prostate symptoms are related to a squeezed bladder including the following: urinary hesitancy, blockage, urgency to urinate, leakage during the day and while asleep (nocturia), urinary dribbling, weakened urination, difficulty starting urinating, unsteady urine stream, frequent urination in small amounts, incomplete urine voiding, incomplete voiding sensation and so forth. For any man these symptoms are very uncomfortable and somewhat embarrassing. As a result of this condition one can hardly sit through a movie or a concert and wakes up several times during sleep.

The swollen prostate symptoms include pressure on the urethra and reduced semen production as well as the following symptoms: burning sensation during ejaculation, problem getting regular erections and pain in the area between the testicles and the anus. These problems may compound into erectile dysfunction and impotency. 

The effects of a swollen prostate may be far reaching and it is recommended to seek prevention and relief by taking natural supplements such as Vixova which was developed in Sweden for the relief of symptoms associated swollen prostate.
