I went to the doctor the other day for what turned out to be prostatitis - inflammation of the prostate. It's fairly (debilitating at times) painful & I'm hoping I don't have to explain all the "stuff" it makes "difficult".
The doctor said "A lot of bikers have this chronically".
My questions are:
Is this true? I've never heard any o' my friends who ride have this. Or do people just not talk about it?
What can be done about it? Seats? Susp. posts? Susp. frames?
I've actually been off the bike for about a month & think that my current problem was brought on by a LOT of time in the car recently. But the doctor did think that my prostate was probably
already inflamed a little from riding my mountain bike.
Any thoughts, info & shared experience on this would be helpful.
Thanks.
