Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland. Hypothermia, sedentary lifestyle, infection (bacterial - most often) become the cause of the development of pathological processes. The prostate gland swells, urination is disrupted, pain arises, and then it is constantly disrupted - in the perineum, inside the urethra, above the knee. To prevent inflammation, you should contact your urologist, who will prescribe medication for prostatitis. Today there is a wide range of medications, so it will be possible to get rid of the disease quickly, which prevents the transition to a chronic form of pathology.
Peculiarities of treatment of prostatitis
It is important to understand that only a urologist can prescribe an effective cure for prostatitis. He will conduct an investigation, an interview about the events that preceded the development of inflammation; Will send you an ultrasound (or TRUS), write a referral for laboratory diagnosis. The results of these studies are of great importance - the doctor pays attention when prescribing this or that drug.
If you buy prostate medicine and take it only for personal reasons, at your discretion, you can make not only a mistake, but also damage to the body. In some cases, such treatment is simply ineffective, and the acute form of prostatitis progresses to a chronic stage.
When treating inflammation of the prostate gland should follow certain dietary and lifestyle recommendations.
- It is contraindicated to drink alcohol throughout the therapeutic course. Treatment of prostatitis is incompatible with the presence of alcohol in the blood.
- Refuse an intimate relationship. Sexual intercourse involves the accelerated production of hormones. This effect is stressful for the inflamed prostate gland. It is also important to understand that unprotected intimacy increases the pathogenic microflora from male to female genital tract. Full action will not be with erectile dysfunction - typical erectile dysfunction characteristic of men with prostatitis.
- Do not eat fried, spicy, sour and salty foods. Such a diet adversely affects the condition of the prostate because enzymes irritate its tissue, increase pain and aggravate inflammation.
- For monitoring personal hygiene and, above all, its intimate part, it is impossible to create favorable conditions for the development of the inflammatory process, especially if prostatitis is caused by a bacterial flora.
Also, it is necessary to inform the doctor about the existing chronic diseases before starting the therapeutic course. The fact is that it is impossible to take some medications for prostatitis in the presence of certain pathologies.
