“…However, patients with pain on urination, sexual discomfort, testis and glans pain only, accounted for about a fifth each, and all lower than reported in American populations [11], at 40%, 52%, 48% and 31%, respectively. Among an Italian population the symptoms of burning during micturition, ejaculatory pain or discomfort, testicular pain or discomfort, penile pain or discomfort were reported as 81.7%, 63.9%, 43.9%, and 55.2%, respectively [6]. Thus from these results we conclude primarily that most of the present patients had much less pain than reported in previous studies.…”
