Is it possible to cure chronic prostatitis in men?

Prostatitis is a common problem among men of reproductive age.Many patients ask doctors whether chronic prostatitis can be completely cured or not.

According to doctors, it is quite possible to achieve a stable remission of the disease.To do this, it is enough to eat well, take the necessary medications, lead a healthy lifestyle and have a fulfilling sexual life.

Physiotherapeutic procedures, diet and prostate massage are used to treat chronic prostatitis.Antibiotics, alpha-1 blockers and bioregulatory peptides are mandatory.

If necessary, treatment is supplemented with antispasmodics, muscle relaxants and herbal remedies.Optionally, it is allowed to use traditional medicine: tinctures, baths, decoctions.

What is chronic prostatitis?

Prostatitis is a general term.It refers to the inflammatory process in the prostate gland.If a man does not start treatment on time, the inflammatory process becomes chronic.In this case, it is much more difficult to compensate for the illness.

Is it possible to cure chronic prostatitis forever?According to doctors, this is very possible.The chronic form of the disease is certainly more difficult to treat, but nothing is impossible.When choosing treatment tactics, the form of the disease and the severity of the inflammatory process are taken into account.

Please note that there is a classification of prostatitis.According to him, there are the following types of diseases:

1. Depending on the causes of appearance, infectious, bacterial, congestive, fungal, hormonal-dystrophic, allergic and vegetovascular prostatitis are distinguished.
2. Depending on the nature of the disease, the disease can be acute or chronic.
3. Depending on the development of the process, a period of active inflammation, a period of latent inflammation and remission are distinguished.
4. Depending on the duration and location of the inflammation focus, prostatitis can be catarrhal, follicular and parenchymal.

There are many causes of chronic prostatitis.The main ones are the penetration of infectious agents/fungi/viruses into the prostate, chronic diseases of the genitourinary system, decreased immunity, abnormalities in the structure of the acini and hormonal disorders.Bad habits, obesity, impaired blood flow in the pelvis, sedentary lifestyle, lack of sexual relations, hypothermia and stress can also provoke the inflammatory process.

The principle of treatment of chronic prostatitis is selected depending on the etiology of the inflammatory process.

Symptoms of the disease

The question of whether prostatitis can be treated is clear.Let us repeat that it is quite possible to bring the disease to a stage of stable remission if you consult a doctor in a timely manner and undergo appropriate treatment.

What are the characteristic symptoms of chronic prostatitis?

The main symptom is pain.Pain sensations are localized in the perineum.Sometimes the pain “radiates” to the lower back, tailbone, testicles, and even the penis.

The unpleasant sensations intensify when urinating and having sexual intercourse.

In addition to pain, characteristic signs of inflammation of the pancreas are:

• Chills, fever, elevated body temperature.Symptoms are characteristic of acute infectious/bacterial prostatitis.
• Difficulty urinating.
• Pain, soreness and itching when emptying the bladder.After urinating, the patient may feel as if the bladder has not been completely emptied.
• Slow erection or its absence as such.
• Premature ejaculation.
• The appearance of mucous, purulent or whitish discharge from the urethra.These symptoms are characteristic of fungal, bacterial and infectious forms of prostatitis.
• Lack of orgasm.
• Decreased sperm count.

If the above symptoms appear, you should immediately contact a urologist and undergo proper diagnosis.

Treatment methods for chronic prostatitis?

Correction of lifestyle and diet.

How to cure chronic prostatitis in men?

According to doctors, finally getting rid of this disease will be possible only with an integrated approach.Therapy is not complete without lifestyle adjustments.

The first thing a man should do is eliminate bad habits from his life.Alcohol and cigarettes should become taboo.Alcohol and tobacco negatively affect blood circulation and the immune system.

Lifestyle correction also includes:

1. Sports activities.To normalize blood flow in the pelvis and quickly stop the inflammatory process, the patient needs physical activity.There is no point in exhausting yourself with training.It is enough to visit the pool, do yoga or squash, walk more and run.
2. A full sexual life.Prostatitis is not a reason to reject sexual relations.Rather, on the contrary, when the prostate is inflamed, having sexual intercourse is very useful, because during sexual intercourse the blood flow in the pelvis is normalized and excess prostate juice is removed.Men should use barrier methods of contraception so as not to infect their chosen one with bacteria/fungi/viruses.
3. Balanced diet.A properly structured diet can have a positive effect on a man's body.To get rid of chronic prostatitis, you need to eat more fish, vegetables, fruits, seafood, berries, dairy products and meat.It is also useful to consume honey, green tea, freshly squeezed juices and whipped honey.

Doctors also strongly recommend avoiding physical fatigue and sleeping at least 6 to 8 hours a day.

Prostate massages and physiotherapy treatments.

To cure chronic prostatitis, a man needs to attend prostate massage sessions.Please note that the procedure is prescribed for the stagnant form of the disease.In case of acute bacterial, infectious or fungal prostatitis, massage will not be beneficial.

A urologist should massage the pancreas.The procedure itself lasts no more than 3 to 5 minutes.The doctor puts on latex gloves, lubricates the index finger, and inserts the finger into the patient's anus.

Each lobe of the pancreas is then progressively massaged.After 5-6 sessions, the organ swells less, blood circulation in the prostate normalizes, excess prostate juice disappears and even the erection improves.

You can also do a massage at home.To do this, you will need a specialized device called a prostate stimulator.Hardware massage is as effective as finger massage.In addition, when stimulants are used, the procedure itself becomes more pleasant.

In addition to massage, the following helps with prostatitis:

• Acupuncture.
• Magnetotherapy using the Almag-01 device.
• Hirudotherapy.
• Electrophoresis.
• Shock wave therapy.
• Moxibustion therapy.
• His Jok.

Physiotherapeutic procedures and prostate massage can be used for both preventive and therapeutic purposes.

Pharmacological treatment

To prevent the development of complications of prostatitis, including adenoma and pancreatic cancer, the patient must take certain medications.

Which means to use is decided directly by the treating doctor.

For infectious, fungal and bacterial etiologies of the disease, broad-spectrum antibiotics are necessarily prescribed.

The duration of antibiotic therapy is 3 to 5 weeks.

In addition to antibiotics, the following are prescribed:

1. Bioregulatory peptides.Medicines in this group help to normalize metabolic processes in the prostate, stabilize blood flow, accelerate the regeneration of damaged tissue and normalize erectile function.
2. Alpha-1 adrenergic blockers.Medications help to normalize urine output and level dysuric disorders.
3. Herbal medicines.They normalize prostate function, prevent stagnation and stimulate reparative processes.
4. Medicines to increase potency.They are assigned optionally.

If necessary, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antispasmodics and muscle relaxants are prescribed.These medications are necessary to relieve spasms and pain.

Traditional methods

Alternative medicine can be considered as a complement to conservative treatment.Of course, homemade drugs are not a panacea, but their use helps to normalize urine flow and even improve erection.

Decoctions, tinctures and baths can be used in the treatment of chronic prostatitis.

The drug should be used with caution in men prone to allergic reactions.

Surgery

There are cases when conservative treatment does not produce any effect or prostatitis is accompanied by serious consequences.

In advanced cases, surgery may be prescribed.

Usually, surgical intervention is prescribed for the calculous form of prostatitis, when stones form in the glandular organ.

It is often not possible to remove stones from the pancreas conservatively.

For prostatitis, including gallstones, 3 methods are used:

• Prostatectomy is a procedure in which the entire prostate gland is completely removed.Prescribed for BPH, prostate cancer, acute prostatitis, which is accompanied by an abscess or phlegmon in the pelvic area.Prostatectomy is also used for calculous prostatitis.
• Prostate resection is an operation in which part of the prostate gland is removed.Prescribed for calculous prostatitis, BPH, prostate cancer, urinary retention, hematuria.
• Laser therapy.The minimally traumatic method.Laser therapy is an operation in which, with the help of laser radiation, inflammatory processes in the pancreas are leveled or benign neoplasms are “evaporated.”Indications for treatment are erectile dysfunction, prostatitis, BPH, narrowing of the ureter, impotence due to prostatitis.

Before surgical treatment, the patient must undergo diagnosis.The decision on the appropriateness of the operation is made by the treating doctor.As practice shows, surgical interventions are prescribed in exceptional cases.
