Causes, signs and symptoms of prostatitis

Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland called prostate. Prostate iron is a secondary part of male reproductive organs. Located under the bladder around his neck. The fact is that the urethra passes through the prostate, that is, the prostate is located around the urinary tube. As a result, as the prostate enlarges, a canal is squeezed, which shows urine, which interferes with the passage of urine.

prostatitis

In men over 35, the prostate is often increased. This is a typical phenomenon. Most of the diseases in men over 50 are just a consequence of a disorder of the genius system, that is, as a result of inflammation of the prostate gland. It must be remembered that the more simple iron, the more urine it will be blocked, thus more poisoned by this urine.The causes of prostatitis

The causes of prostatitis are distinguished by the following:

  • The main cause of prostatitis is a disorder of blood circulation, which leads to an increase in the prostate. The cause of circulatory disorders is a sedentary lifestyle as well as a high weight.
  • Another cause of prostatitis is infection. Often, the infection can be resulting from gonorrhea or urethritis, rarely as a result of complications of tonsillitis, influenza, tuberculosis.
  • Inflammation of the bacterial prostate begins when infectious contractors enter the prostate gland through blood, lymph, during unprotected sexual intercourse, in other words through the biological fluids of the body. Various microorganisms that are constantly present on the skin of a person or even in the organs of the abdominal cavity, such as the intestine, under certain conditions, can cause the development of the disease.
  • Injuries to the organs and soft tissues of the pelvis, disruption of their blood circulation are often the cause of prostatitis. As a rule, this is most applied to drivers whose work is related to professional harm - constant vibrations, shaking, increased workload of the perineum muscles. Signs of prostatitis

    The signs of acute prostatitis are an increase in body temperature and rapid urination, which is accompanied by raw and low pressure. In addition, the signs of prostatitis are the burning of the perineum and the pain in the rectum during bowel movements. At the stage of purulent inflammation, the likely spontaneous opening of the abscess and the leakage of pus from the urethra or rectum.

    A sign of chronic prostatitis forests in urethra and perineum, release of pus at the end of the act of bowel movements or urination, increased fatigue and irritability of the body.

    It is very dangerous with prostatitis of difficulty urinating, which in the absence of timely treatment can lead to acute retention of urine.

    If we talk about even specialized manifestations, then in most cases patients notice a transparent or sometimes purulent discharge from the urethra, especially noticeable in the morning and the presence of white flakes and threads in the urine.

    Signs of prostatitisSymptoms of prostatitis

    A sharp shape. Like many diseases, prostatitis is divided into acute and chronic. The common symptoms are characteristic of the acute form of the disease.

  • The patient develops a general weakness, an apparent discomfort
  • Often accompanied by fever, headache
  • As a rule, the pain in the perineum is pronounced, covers the inguinal region and increases during urination or bowel movements.
  • The feeling of honor impulse to the toilet, which does not bring relief due to incomplete emptying of the bladder, leads to increased irritability and nervous excitability of patients. In severe cases, acute urinary retention develops.

    Chronic form. Unlike acute form, the chronic form of prostatitis has an asymptomatic course and is latent (ie without pronounced characteristic characteristics). The clinical picture is often erased, with mild symptoms, patients do not pay proper detection of appropriate attention and do not consider seeking medical help, confusing symptoms of prostatitis with prostate adenoma, which is extremely dangerous. The principles for the treatment of these diseases are completely different, as well as possible complications with unwanted consequences.

    Often the worsening of overall well -being, problems with the potency and nervous disorders of men are written off by fatigue and lack of rest, that is, a person simply does not want to realize that he is sick and needs treatment. An important role in the timely detection of this disease is annually preventive examinations, which allow for a diagnosis at the most in the most stages.

    The chronic form of prostate inflammation is expressed in mild pain in the perineum, in the pubic region and the groin that quickly passes. As a rule, the duration of sexual intercourse changes both the extension and the vice versa and the brightness of sexual sensations. Disposes appear from the urethra, especially in the morning or white flakes are visible in the urine with the naked eye.Prostatitis diagnosis

    Identification of prostatitis is engaged with a urologist. It diagnoses the fact of prostate damage. Based on the symptoms of the disease, the doctor can now determine the stage of its development during the first trick. Be sure to be prescribed the ultrasound of the person of the prostate.

    Possible diagnostic measures:

  • Palpation of the prostate gland during the initial examination.
  • Urethral spread fence. The result is sent for a bacteriological examination.
  • Urine transmission for analysis.
  • PSA level assessment. This is a protein of the prostate gland.

    If the data obtained is not sufficient to diagnose, then the patient is placed in a hospital and under his or her conditions a urodynamic examination is performed.

    Cystoscopy is a method of diagnosing prostate diseases during which the doctor can perform some therapeutic manipulations. However, they rarely resort to it.

    Symptoms of prostatitisTreatment of acute and chronic prostatitis

    Although such a disease as prostatitis is long known and is widely used among men of different ages, it is difficult enough to treat.

    While with the therapy with acute prostatitis of difficulties, as a rule, there is no, chronic prostatitis of the correction is not always busy. In addition, exactly how it is necessary to treat chronic inflammation of the prostate gland in scientists have many perspectives.

    However, the following points have no disagreements:

  • The effectiveness of therapy directly depends on its timely onset.
  • Therapy should be performed in the complex, while all the characteristics of the health of a particular patient should be taken into account. It is extremely important to calculate the cause that led to the development of the pathology.
  • Only diagnosis and suicide are strictly prohibited.Treatment of acute bacterial prostatitis

    Treatment of acute bacterial prostatitis directly depends on how much the symptoms of the disease are expressed. Sometimes the patient's condition is extremely serious, which often happens when the body is intoxicated.

    The disease manifests itself acute, body temperature rises sharply, it seems chills, pelvic pain, at the lower back, perineum. It is possible to join nausea and vomiting, violation of the bladder emptying process with acute pain, burning sensation and more. This condition is dangerous with its complications. It is possible to join the bacterial infection, the development of an abscess of the prostate gland. Most often, complications arise against the background of existing chronic diseases, for example, in the presence of diabetes.

    If the disease is acute, the man should be hospitalized in the hospital, in the urological profile ward. If this is not possible, then the patient is determined in the general surgical department.

    There is a general treatment tactics to conduct patients with acute prostatitis:

  • Observing rest in bed.
  • The appointment of antibacterial drugs.
  • Prohibition of prostate massage even to obtain a prostate secret. The ban is due to a high risk of sepsis.
  • The appointment of drugs aimed at normalizing the microcirculation of blood, to increase its smoothness and viscosity. Due to the effect of these drugs, it is possible to achieve leakage of lymph and venous blood from the inflamed gland, to reduce toxic manifestations and to remove the decay products from the body.
  • October adoption of NSAIDs. They are prescribed to reduce pain.
  • Other analgesics may be used. In addition to reducing pain, these drugs eliminate inflammation to some extent. In their practice, urologists and andrologists widely use rectal candles to have an analgesic effect to reduce inflammation. These include the same components as in tablet medicines, but thanks to local administration, the effect is enhanced. You can use prostatitis candles with propolis.
  • If the patient suffers from severe intoxication of the body, the introduction of rheological solutions, as well as detoxifying agents and electrolytes, a solution of potassium chloride with the addition of glucose.

    Surgery is necessary if the possibility of independent emptying of the bladder is completely absent or an abscess of the prostate is formed.

    The use of antibiotics to treat bacterial prostatitis is a must. If the disease starts acute, there are symptoms of intoxication, then antibacterial drugs are prescribed as quickly as possible, wait for the results of the bacterial flora tests in this case are inappropriate and dangerous.Treatment of chronic prostatitis

    Chronic prostatitis therapy depends directly on what stage the disease is. If the disease is exacerbated, then the treatment is similar to treatment with acute bacterial prostatitis.

    Suggest the following patient tactics:

    Prostatitis

  • Adoption of a NSAID course.
  • The appointment of agents aimed at normalizing the leakage of lymph and improving the microcirculation of blood in the organ.
  • Immunomodulatory preparations.  
  • To eliminate erection problems, the use of antidepressants and sedatives is shown.
  • To strengthen the pelvic muscles, regular physical activity helps to normalize blood circulation. It is best if there is a specially composed complex of physiotherapy exercises. Physiotherapy procedures have a good effect-rectal electrophoresis, transrectal microwave hyperthermia, UHF, magnetic laser therapy, etc. These procedures help to get rid of pelvic pain syndrome. Complications of prostatitis and consequences

    Prostatitis is a serious disease that is associated with a number of complications. Sometimes you manage to get rid of them, and sometimes they are irreversible. Therefore, with the first manifestations of the disease, you should contact a specialist.

    So, with prostatitis, testes and appendages can be inflamed. If you do not eliminate the pathological reaction of the body over time, that is, the likelihood of developing an abscess in which the organ will begin to rot.Prevention measures

    Measures for the prevention of chronic prostatitis are primarily aimed at preventing its exacerbation. If this has already happened, the inflammation should be removed as soon as possible.

    In order to minimize the risk of relapse, you must completely refuse or minimize the effect of the following negative factors:

  • Alcohol consumption. This does not mean that you need to abandon it at all, but it is necessary to limit it. No one prohibits a glass of red wine, but you should not drink a whole bottle.
  • Smoking. The prostate gland is the organ that constantly experiences oxygen fasting due to poor blood supply. With inhalation of tobacco smoke, blood vessels are a spasm, and the microcirculation of blood is even more abused. In addition, all smokers will sooner or later suffer from high blood pressure.
  • Lack of movement. You should be forced to break away from the sofa and start moving.
  • Stress. You need to learn how to remove from the head the whole negative that was obtained during the day. The family in this case will be the best antidepressant. The weekend spent with relatives will replace all the sedatives.
  • Hypothermia, colds. These negative factors directly affect the prostate gland. If there is a car, you should make sure that the seats are heated in it.
  • Physical fatigue is no less dangerous than lack of movement. Do not lift weights if the body is not prepared for it.

    There are also some recommendations that will enhance the health of men:

    Prevention of prostatitis

  • Physical activity. At least 10 minutes of morning time should be dedicated to loading. In this case, you do not need to include heavy exercise in your workouts. Let this be just a soft gymnastics that allows you to scatter stagnant blood. The same rule is relevant to the sitting work.
  • The contrast shower is also an excellent tool for improving his well. It is very effective to take it before intercourse. In addition, exposure to water is important on both the whole body and the prostate. It is useful in this regard to visit the bathroom. But you should not immediately get out of the steam with ice water - it will only cause harm.
  • As for food, you should include raw pumpkin seeds, honey, garlic, plums, parsley, nuts in your diet.
  • It is necessary to refuse marinated products, especially this is true of various sauces with the addition of vinegar - mayonnaise, ketchup, salting, marinades, etc.
