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 begin treatment in a timely manner, the inflammatory process becomes chronic.In this case, it becomes much more difficult to compensate for the disease.

Is it possible to cure chronic prostatitis forever?According to doctors, this is quite 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.

Note that there is a classification of prostatitis.According to it, there are the following types of illness:

1. According to the causes of occurrence, infectious, bacterial, congestive, fungal, hormonal-dystrophic, allergic and vegetovascular prostatitis are distinguished.
2. According to the nature of the disease, the disease can be acute or chronic.
3. According to the development of the process, a period of active inflammation, a period of latent inflammation and remission are distinguished.
4. According to the duration and localization of the source of inflammation, 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 sex, hypothermia, and stress can also cause the inflammatory process.

The principle of treatment of chronic prostatitis is selected based 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 transfer the disease into 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.

Unpleasant sensations intensify during urination and sexual intercourse.

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

• Chills, fever, elevated body temperature.Signs are characteristic of acute infectious/bacterial prostatitis.
• Difficulty urinating.
• Pain, pain and itching when emptying the bladder.After urinating, the patient may feel as if he or she has not emptied the bladder completely.
• Sluggish 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 appropriate diagnostics.

Treatment methods for chronic prostatitis?

Lifestyle correction and diet

How to cure chronic prostatitis in men?

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

The first thing a man must 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 fulfilling sex life.Prostatitis is not a reason to refuse sex.Rather, on the contrary - when the prostate is inflamed, having sex is very useful, because during sexual intercourse, blood flow in the pelvis is normalized and excess prostatic juice is eliminated.Men must use barrier 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 honey whipping.

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

Prostate massage and physiotherapy treatments

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

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

Then each lobe of the pancreas is progressively massaged.After 5-6 sessions, the organ becomes less swollen, blood circulation in the prostate is normalized, excess prostatic juice disappears and even erection improves.

You can also perform 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 using stimulants, the procedure itself is more pleasant.

In addition to massage, the following help with prostatitis:

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

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

Drug 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 attending physician.

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

The duration of antibiotic therapy is 3-5 weeks.

In addition to antibiotics, the following are prescribed:

1. Bioregulatory peptides.Drugs in this group help normalize metabolic processes in the prostate, stabilize blood flow, accelerate the regeneration of damaged tissue, and normalize erectile function.
2. Alpha-1 adrenergic blockers.Medicines help normalize the outflow of urine and level out 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 needed 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 normalize urine flow and even improve erection.

In the treatment of chronic prostatitis, decoctions, tinctures and baths can be used.

The drug should be used with caution by men who have a tendency to allergic reactions.

Surgery

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

In advanced cases, surgery may be prescribed.

Typically, 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 calculous, 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 most 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 needs to undergo diagnostics.The decision on the advisability of the operation is made by the attending physician.As practice shows, surgical interventions are prescribed in exceptional cases.
