Prostatitis is the inflammation of the prostate gland, an organ, so important for the male body that it is not without reason, it is called the "second heart of a man".
This gland has the shape of a tacit roll located under the bladder.A mouth of the bladder and the urethra (partially) crosses the roller of the gland.The structurally prostate iron consists of a set of alveolar tubular glands linked by muscle tissues.
The goal of the prostate gland:
- Produce the secretory fluid necessary for the liquefaction, safety and transport of sperm,
- Regulation of the urination process.
There are two types of prostatitis - acute and chronic and chronic prostatitis represents 95% of the total number of prostatitis diseases.
Foracute prostatitisAll signs of a feverish state are characteristic:
- Frequent painful urilation;
- painful urination;
- painful defecation;
- Increase in perspiration;
- high temperature and feverish state;
- the state of apathy and drowsiness;
- fatigue and sense of general weakness;
- Reducing power.
Chronic prostatitisMuch more insidious: by producing destructive work in the gland of the prostate, it does not find its presence little presence.As a general rule, for chronic prostatitis, the desire to night is typical (in the sense - the rise of the bed in the middle of the night for a visit to the toilet) and a feeling of improper improper aggressions in the groin.Unfortunately, few men attach the importance of these symptoms.
All the above symptoms can be observed simultaneously, but can - selectively (only a few symptoms);However, there are situations where a man does not correlate these symptoms with the disease of the genitarinian sphere, but explains the discomfort with an emotional state and a fatigue.
Unfortunately, the health of the prostate gland is very fragile.As medical statistics testify, this iron is very easily inflamed.It is almost impossible to call a reason that certainly does not cause inflammation of the prostate gland.
The causes of prostatitis
- penetration of infection;It can be an infection that has been thrown from a neighboring organ (for example, an inflammatory process in the urethra, the bladder, the testicle, in the appendages) or a very distant time - of the inflamed glands (amygdalite), ears (average otitis), teeth (cavities), even nails and skin infections.
Causal agents of infection can be a wide variety of bacteria and viruses, as well as various mushrooms and pathogen viruses.
- Exacerbation of stagnant processes both in the gland of the prostate itself, and in general in the genital sphere of a man, that is to say inflammation without carriers of infection.
Stagnation in the genitorerinary sphere is a frequent phenomenon.This means that a man has problems with the right way of life and, as a rule, often these problems are caused by a sedentary lifestyle and are so linked that, according to authority scientists, the scale and all the lightness of prostatitis in our time are a duty for civil goods.In addition, prostatitis awaits those who are excessively active in sexual terms and those who lead an ascetic lifestyle.
We can certainly predict the appearance of prostatitis in men leading a random sex life even if they follow the contraception of the barriers.
Who is at risk?
The enemies of prostate health are an excess weight, alcohol, smoking, from the wearing of inappropriate clothing (cramped, synthetic or not until the season), hypothermia, frequent travel in transport (on all transport, but especially on cars and motorcycles), and regardless of quality - a driver or a passenger.Men who are forced to make frequent trips are subject to a double threat of prostatitis: due to constant tremors, and due to the impossibility of emptying the bladder and the intestines during the first calls.
Prostatitis following tremors has become so frequent that doctors called it the second coming of Scythian disease ("Scythian disease" - Driving prostatitis).According to constant tremors, the microtrauma of the perineum occurs, which has a cumulative effect and, therefore, manifests itself by typical problems of one time for a serious injury.
The consequences of prostatitis
Complications of prostatitis: it is input and infertility, prostate adenoma, prostate sclerosis (death of the gland), prostate cystsAnd many other diseases.To date, medicine has accumulated enough examples proving mutual conditioningProstatitis and prostate cancer.
The frightening scale of prostatitis does not mean despair before this very insidious disease.They only speak of the underdevelopment of the culture of visiting doctors.Statistics indicate: In 90% of patients who approached the doctor, the development of prostatitis is found, and there are few patients who are diagnosed with the initial stage of the disease.
Certainly, recently, doctors have spoken of small small but distinct but distinct movements in this area - the number of patients who are faced with a preventive objective has increased.As a rule, they are young men with the position of working life if called.The community of doctors in any way possible welcomes this business.
Prostatitis diagnosis
Establishing the fact of prostatitis is only half of the battle.The main thing is to find the reason that caused it.For this, he is supposed to perform a diagnostic examination.
The patient who contacted the clinic about the diagnosis of prostatitis will be proposed to go through:
- PCR for sex infections,
- Ultrasound and trusi prostate, bladder and seed bubbles,
- microscopy of secretion of the prostate gland,
- Sow the secretion of the prostate gland to determine the pathogen of the infection (it is necessary to determine the sensitivity to antibiotics and to choose the corresponding antibiotic),
- Various urine tests,
- spermogram;
- Palpation of the prostate.
All these tests are necessary for the choice of treatment, otherwise it would become symptomatic (aimed only to eliminate the symptoms of pain, without affecting treatment as such).
Treatment of acute prostatitis and the treatment of chronic prostatitis have significant differences.
Prostatitic treatment
The treatment of acute prostatitis, as a rule, is complex and may include:
- Antibacterial therapy,
- Anti-inflammatory therapy,
- laser treatment,
- Prostate massage.
The treatment of chronic prostatitis is always individual and depends on the medical history (of the type of prostatitis) and the individual characteristics of the patient.
The most common type of prostatitis is bacterial prostatitis.Antibiotics for its treatment are prescribed taking into account the sensitivity of the microbes which caused them.
In order for treatment to be as effective as possible, Atibacterial therapy is combined with laser therapy, prostate massage, as well as anti-inflammatory treatment and general strengthening.
A prostate massage is necessary to eliminate the purulent masses of the prostate, which are still there, with inflammation of the prostate.
In chronic prostatitis, taking antibiotics as the only form of treatment is ineffective;A combination with other methods is necessary.
After treatment, a prostate control ultrasound and an analysis of control of the prostate gland are necessarily carried out.
The prognosis for the treatment of prostatitis is favorable (the prognosis for the treatment of prostatitis at an early stage is successful).
