Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland. Hypothermia, sedentary lifestyle, infection (bacterial - most often) causes the development of the pathological process. The prostate gland swells, urination is disturbed, pain occurs and then constantly disturbed - in the perineum, inside the urethra, above the pubis. To get rid of the inflammation faster, you need to contact a urologist who will prescribe a medicine for prostatitis. Today there is a wide range of drugs, so it will be possible to quickly get rid of the disease, preventing the transition of the pathology to a chronic form.
Features of the treatment of prostatitis
It is important to understand that only a urologist can prescribe an effective cure for prostatitis. He will conduct an examination, an interview about the events preceding the development of inflammation; will send for ultrasound (or TRUS), write a referral for laboratory diagnosis. The results of these studies are of great importance - the doctor focuses on them, prescribing this or that drug.
If you buy and take a medicine for prostatitis only for personal reasons, in your opinion you can not only make a mistake, but also harm the body. And in some cases, such treatment is simply ineffective, while acute prostatitis progresses to a chronic stage.
During the treatment of inflammation of the prostate gland should follow certain dietary and lifestyle.
- It is contraindicated to consume alcohol throughout the course of therapy. Treatment of prostatitis is incompatible with the presence of alcohol in the blood.
- Deny intimacy. Sexual intercourse involves accelerated production of hormones. This effect is stressful for the inflamed prostate gland. It is also important to understand that unprotected intimacy increases the likelihood of transmission of pathogenic microflora from a man to a woman's genital tract. A full-fledged act will not be due to erectile dysfunction - a typical erectile dysfunction inherent in men with prostatitis.
- Do not eat fried, spicy, sour and salty foods. Such a diet adversely affects the condition of the prostate, as enzymes irritate its tissue, increasing pain and exacerbating inflammation.
- To monitor personal hygiene and its intimate part in the first place it is impossible to create favorable conditions for the development of the inflammatory process, especially if the prostatitis is caused by bacterial flora.
Also, before starting a course of therapy, it is important to inform the doctor about existing chronic diseases. The fact is that some drugs for prostatitis can not be taken in the presence of certain pathologies.
