Prostatitis - Seed (prostate) gland - prostate.It is the most common disease of the sex system in men.Most often this affects patients aged 25-50 years.According to various data, prostatitis suffers from 30-85% of men older than 30 years.Inflammation of the tests and attachments may endanger infertility.The ladder of infection causes inflammation of the upper part of the genital system (cystitis, pyelonephritis).
Symptoms of prostatitis
In rare cases, chronic prostatitis becomes the result of an acute process, although the primary chronic course is usually observed.Temperature sometimes rises to subacute values.The patient reports weak pain in the perinum, discomfort during urination and defecation.The most characteristic symptom is a scarce discharge from the urethra during defecation.The main chronic form of the disease develops during a significant period.It is preceded by prostatosis (blood stagnation in the capillaries), gradually turning into a abyssal prostate.
Chronic prostatitis is often a complication of the inflammatory process caused by a specific infection agent (chlamydia, trichomonas, urapasma, gonococcus).Symptoms of a specific inflammatory process often mask the manifestations of prostate injury.A slight increase in pain in urination, weak pain in the perinum, scarce discharge from the urethra during defecation.A slight change in the clinical picture is often overlooked by the patient.
Impotence and sometimes the danger of possible sexual disorders is difficult to go to patients.There is often a change in character, irritation, madness, excessive concern about one's own health and even "traveling to the disease".
If a man is suspected of developing prostatitis, then he is immediately offered a differential diagnosis.This allows you to distinguish the inflammation of the prostate gland from other pathological conditions that have similar symptoms.
Without a diagnosis, the doctor will not be able to distinguish prostatitis from diseases such as urethritis, pyelonephritis, orchitis, cystitis and epidemic.
Chronic prostatitis can be confused with this organ with prostate adenoma or malignant tumor.In the latter case, the patient will have significant blood loss during urination and a noticeable deterioration of the general health condition.
Typical symptoms of acute bacterial prostatitis are:
- Frequent urination;
- Burning during urination (usually in small amounts of urine);
- Pain in the bladder and perinum;
- Pain during defecation;
- Nausea, vomiting;
- Fever and cold.
Chronic bacterial prostatitis is also characterized by pain and urinary problems.Nevertheless, these symptoms disappear immediately and then appear after some time.Chronic prostatitis is characterized by a recurrent course that fades and inflammation.It can last for many months.
In rare cases, your doctor may detect an increased amount of leukocytes in the ejaculatic or secretion of the prostate gland, but the patient may not feel pain or other symptoms of prostate inflammation.
What signs of prostatitis should you pay special attention to?Initial manifestations of the disease:
- Pain in Perineum and Pubic;
- Discomfort in urination after intimate contact;
- Weakness, weakness;
- A slight increase in temperature.
Symptoms of prostatitis in parenchymal forms:
- Serious patient condition;
- At the beginning of the disease, rapid urination is rapidly transmitted to the dissuria (complete urinary retention);
- The appetite decreases, the patient suffers from thirst;
- Inability to empty the intestines due to severe pain;
- Mucosal discharge from the intestine may appear;
- Body temperature rises, it is held in 39C.
One of the signs of prostatitis in men in this severe form is the sharp pain of the prostate gland.At this stage of the inflammatory process, the patient's palpation is difficult to check for a serious condition and unpleasant sensations in the genital area.If qualified treatment does not begin at this stage, then the disease can be complicated by the transition to the neighboring organs, the appearance of abscess, or the development of a chronic inflammatory process.
Diagnostics
<>The characteristic clinical picture simplifies the process of diagnosis in acute and chronic prostatitis.Mandatory:
- Rectal study of prostate
- Prostate gland fence to determine microflora sensitivity (sowing of prostate and bacterial urine secrets).
- Prostate ultrasound to identify structural changes (tumors, cysts, adenomas) and differentiate prostatitis from other diseases
- Spermogram to exclude or confirm the development of infertility.
To confirm the diagnosis, your doctor can also analyze the urine and get blood from the patient to study the level of inflammatory cells.
Additional diagnostic methods of symptoms of prostate inflammation in men:
- Study of prostate secrets;
- Laboratory diagnosis;
- PCR research;
- Prostate ultrasound;
- Urophlometry;
- Magnetic -Raisonance, computed tomography of pelvic organs.
Treatment: Basic and non -specific therapy
Treating acute prostatitis
Patients with an uncomplicated acute process who experience a course of treatment with a urologist who is exclusive.With strong intoxication, the purulent process is suspected, hospitalization is indicated.Antibacterial therapy is performed.Medications are selected considering the sensitivity of the infectious agent.Antibiotics are widely used that can well penetrate the prostate tissue (ciprofloxacin, etc.).
With the development of severe urinary tract delays on prostatitis FNU, they resort to the installation of cystostomy, not the urethral catheter, as there is a danger of prostate abscess formation.With the development of the abscess, endoscopic transrectal or transurethral opening of the abscess is performed.
Treatment of chronic prostatitis
Treatment of chronic prostatitis should be difficult, including etiotropic therapy, physiotherapy, adjustment of immunity:
- Antibiotic therapy.The patient is prescribed long-term antibacterial courses (4-8 weeks).The type and dose of antibacterial medicines, as well as the duration of the course of treatment, are individually determined.The drug is chosen on the basis of microflora sensitivity, on the basis of urinary sowing and prostate secrets.
- Prostate massage.Massage of the gland has a comprehensive impact on the affected body.During the massage, the inflammatory secret accumulated in the prostate gland is cut into the ducts, then enters the urethra and removes it from the body.The procedure improves blood circulation in the prostate, which allows to minimize stagnation and ensure the best penetration of antibacterial medications into the affected body tissue.
- Physiotherapy.Laser exposure, ultrasound waves, and electromagnetic vibrations are used to improve blood circulation.If it is not possible to perform physiotherapeutic procedures, the patient is prescribed warm healing microclimate.
In chronic, long -term inflammation, the consultation of an immunologist is indicated for choosing immunocorogetic therapy tactics.The patient is given recommendations for changing your lifestyle.The introduction of some changes in the lifestyle of a patient with chronic prostatitis is both a therapeutic and preventive measure.The patient is recommended to normalize sleep and alertness, diet and moderate physical activity.

The following funds are used to treat prostate inflammation:
- Antibacterial, antifungal, antitrichomonas medications (depending on the cause of the disease);
- Antispasmodics, analgesics;
- Physiotherapeutic methods.
Thus, urologists recommend contacting doctors as soon as the first signs of prostatitis occur in men.It wins the time.Treatment with improvised remedies is strictly contraindicated at home.
Prostate massage
Patients with chronic inflammation of the prostate do a gland massage.This procedure should only be performed by experienced specialists, as it is a powerful healing agent that improves the drainage of purulent inflammation of the ducts.
Prostate massage refers to difficult treatment and diagnostic procedure that should only be performed by professionals.It is carried out through the rectum.The body's ducts are massaged by the fingers, stimulating blood flow and drainage of prostate secretion, which is needed for many diseases of the genitalia.Massage relieves ducts from accumulation of PUS, relieves stagnation, reduces the manifestations of infectious and inflammatory processes.
Knowing what the first signs of men's prostatitis have, one can identify them in a timely manner and consult a doctor.
Complications

- Vesiculitis (inflammation of the seed bubbles);
- Prostate sclerosis;
- Prostate abscess;
- Prostate cysts;
- Infertility;
- Impotence;
- Pulmonary infections of neighboring organs.
But the most powerful complication is the gland hyperplasia, with an increase in the risk of growth of malignant tumors.Men often do not even know about the growth of adenoma and cancer neoplasms until they reach impressive measures and there are no difficulties in urination.
In the absence of timely treatment of acute prostatitis, there is a significant risk of developing prostate gland abscess.When purulent focus is formed, the patient's body temperature rises to 39-40 ° C and can acquire a terrible character.Heat periods alternate with a pronounced cold.Sharp pain in the perinum complicated urination and makes it impossible to defecate.
Chronic prostatitis is characterized by a wave -like course of prolonged remission periods, in which inflammation in the prostate is latent or is manifested in extremely minor symptoms.Patients who are worried about anything often stop treatment and only convert complications.
