For many years, prostatitis in men was considered a very common pathological process that disrupts the function of the glandular organ.
The prostate itself will perform three main functions - motor, excretory and barrier.After all, the secretion secreted by this blandular organ is rich in amino acids, vitamins, special enzymes and zinc.
Over time, serious disturbances in sexual function and a decrease in the quality of life are observed.To avoid negative consequences, urologists recommend using complex drug treatment for prostatitis.Only in this case we can hope for complete recovery and normalization of the genitourinary system.
Forms of prostatitis in men and their symptoms
The experience of urologists considers this disease to be the most common and dangerous disease, which mostly affects adult men.
Often, representatives of the stronger sex simply hide existing health problems.
This behavior is extremely dangerous because it can provoke complications, including cancer.Therefore, it is necessary to know the forms and characteristic symptoms of prostatitis.
Spicy
This pathological form is characterized by the presence of acute inflammation provoked by pathogenic microorganisms in the patient's body.
Most often, the main reason is the rapid spread of E. Coli, and in some cases, the main pathogen can be an ordinary amoeba or an enterococcus.
Many of these representatives of the microflora are constantly in the human body, but in some cases, against the background of weakened immunity, their uncontrolled growth can occur.Acute prostatitis is characterized by rapid development and certain symptoms.
The patient can independently determine his condition if he experiences the following symptoms:
- erectile dysfunction;
- a feeling of unimaginable severe illness;
- periodic discharge of pus from the irethra;
- frequent urge to urinate;
- Sharp pain that may radiate to the anal region, perineum, lower back, lower extremities.
Chronic
If you have not undergone a different course of treatment for chronic prostatitis, the pathology can be transformed into a more dangerous and complex form - an adenoma.
The disease is dangerous because it develops slowly and the symptoms are mild.This disease can be caused by microorganisms that are able to penetrate the organ of the gland.
But in rare cases, the disease develops due to chronic stagnation and age-related changes.Urologists, in medical practice, there are situations when the prostate is attacked by its own immune system after complete recovery from infectious microorganisms.
Often this happens against the background of the patient's body being systematically exposed to various unfavorable factors.
The following symptoms are characteristic of chronic prostatitis:
- general weakness throughout the body;
- periodic pain in the perineum, which can be accompanied by various unpleasant sensations;
- weakening or complete suppression of sexual desire for the opposite sex;
- itching, burning and even pain in the groin.
Only a specialist who will conduct all the necessary laboratory tests and palpation of the body can make a correct diagnosis.
Bacteria
It can be an acute or chronic form.The main provocateurs of the disease are considered to be a certain group of bacteria.
All symptoms are characteristic of acute damage to the organ of the gland.Laboratory studies allow to detect existing inflammatory foci in the secretion.
The characteristic symptoms of the bacterial form of the disease are:
- Violation of the biological function of the genitourinary system (frequent urination, impaired erectile function and complete emptying of the bladder);
- general inflammation;
- specific changes in the composition of biological fluids.
Diagnosis is made only after examination.Most often, the bacterial type of prostatitis occurs in people of reproductive age (from 19 to 42 years).The prevalence among the remaining group of men is quite low - only 10%.
Account
This form of prostatitis is characterized by inflammation of the gland organ, which occurs against the background of the presence of specific stones.
This type of disease is considered very rare, as it is mainly diagnosed among older men.
Stones themselves are formed from exudate, phosphates, prostatic secretions and calcifications.
Symptoms of the calcified form of prostatitis are as follows:
- Pain in the sacrum and pelvis, which increases during intimacy and increases during walking;
- a small amount of blood in the semen;
- urinary disorder;
- increased irritability;
- erectile dysfunction;
- Depression and apathy.
How to treat the prostate gland with medicine?
Each case should be considered separately by urologists.This is because the etiology of prostatitis is different for each person, so high-quality therapy differs in its specific effects.
During the treatment, the specialist can make any adjustments.
To improve efficiency and quick recovery, you can use certain herbal teas, as well as regular massage.
But the main focus is on drugs, because they are able to cope with pathogenic microorganisms and bacteria, preventing possible aggravation of the disease.
Drug treatment of prostatitis at home
Is it possible to take a course of drugs to fight inflammation of the gland organ at home?It depends on the condition of the patient.
In this case, the structural characteristics of the prostate, the causes of the disease, whether a person is allergic to a certain group of drugs, as well as the severity of the disease are of great importance.The final decision should always be made by a urologist.
If the treatment of prostatitis is based on the regular use of drugs and therapeutic exercises, it is not necessary to stay in the hospital.After all, you can register for physiotherapy on an outpatient basis at a local clinic.
Antibiotics
When choosing this group of drugs, it is important to remember that there are a large number of them, and all of them help to destroy harmful microorganisms.
Broad-spectrum antibiotics work well against any pathogen, but drugs originally designed for specific microorganisms are more effective for the prostate.
Antibiotics can be taken in the form of injections (the most effective option), tablets or rectal suppositories.
Pain reliever
Correct treatment for prostatitis consists only in not taking antibiotics and immunostimulating agents, because alleviating the painful symptoms of the disease is not even more important.
There are pain-relieving injections to combat inflammation of the glandular organ.
In addition, the doctor can prescribe pain-relieving suppositories.
Alpha Blockers
Such drugs have been used for several years now to help relieve the unpleasant symptoms of Dysuria.In general, this group of drugs is necessary to obtain a hypotensive and vasolating effect, as well as blood glucose levels.
Treatment with drugs can begin only if approved by a urologist.
Medicines that improve blood circulation
With any form of prostatitis, there is a violation of the natural blood circulation, which is full of blockages and complications.Therefore, it is necessary to use drugs that improve blood flow for complex treatment.
Muscle streamers
Drugs in this group have an effect similar to alpha-blockers, only in this case all the effect is directed to the stratified muscles.After completing the full course, patients note a decrease in general pressure in the pelvic organs, as well as the elimination of pain.
Herbal medicines and vitamins
Most patients tend to choose medicines that contain only natural ingredients.
After all, their effect is aimed at reducing inflammation, relieving pain, removing swelling of the glandular organ and restoring the normal flow of physiological fluids.
The most commonly used remedy is pumpkin seed oil..Medicines that are not at all popular are medicines based on the fruits of creeping palm and sabal.
About the endolymphatic method of prostate therapy
Long-term clinical and experimental studies of the state of the lymphatic system have shown its leading importance in inflammatory processes.
Thus, endolymphatic administration of drugs allows reducing the number of injections to 1 injection per day.
In addition, the dosage of administered drugs was reduced by 70%.Complete recovery of the patient occurs without the use of antibiotics, without a positive effect on the functioning of the whole body.
