Chronic prostatitis: causes, symptoms, consequences and treatment

Prostatitis is a urological disease of the prostate gland that is inflammatory.Middle and older men are most affected by their appearance.

Prostatitis is acute and chronic, but the chronic form of the disease is most widespread.

Chronic prostatitis

Chronic prostatitis is a longer inflammatory disease of the prostate gland, which leads to malfunctions in the work of the genitator system of men.

The disease gradually develops for several years (without being worried), so that men only seek a doctor during a deterioration, accompanied by a significant deterioration in the general state.

Chronic prostatitis is divided into two forms: infectious and not infectious.

The infectious shape results from the introduction of infectious pathogens into the body.

The non -infectious shape occurs with a violation of the blood flow to the pelvic organs and the stagnation of the secret in the prostate, which contributes to the inflammatory process.

Causes

There are various factors that can cause the appearance of chronic prostatitis.

The most important of them is:

  • Violation of the rhythm of sexual activity.
  • Interruption and tightening of sexual intercourse.
  • Wrong and early treatment of prostatitis.
  • The presence of the pathology of the pelvic organs.
  • Infection of transmitted sexually transmitted pathogens.
  • Inflammatory diseases of internal organs.
  • Settlement of the body.
  • Inactive lifestyle.
  • Alcohol abuse and smoking.
  • Nerve revision.
  • Excessive physical exertion (including weight lifting)
  • Wear tight linen.
  • Weakening of the defense of the body.

Clinical manifestations

During the agitation of chronic prostatitis, the presence of such symptoms is possible:

How chronic prostatitis manifests itself
  • The appearance of a feeling of symptoms and pain in the perineum, in the lumbosacral department, in the scrotum.
  • Violation of the urine process (frequent urge, sluggish or intermittent urine current)
  • Reduction of the quality of a man's sexual function (weak erection, lack of sex drive, premature orgasm, etc.)
  • Sharp pain in the lower abdomen.
  • Unpleasant feelings after ejaculation.

Through its characteristics, chronic prostatitis resembles other diseases of the genitarian system.A thorough examination is required to precisely determine the presence of an illness.

The consequences of the disease

Chronic prostatitis can lead to serious complications that lead to the development of new diseases.

With premature or unfinished treatment, it can occur:

  • Cystitis and pyelonephritis anti-inflammatory and infectious processes in the urine system.
  • Vesiculit - inflammation of the seed bubbles (which leads to infertility and inflammation of the urogenital tract)
  • Orchoepididimitis - inflammation of the testicles and their attachments.
  • Prostate abscess - the accumulation of pus in the tissues of the prostate (can lead to the formation of fistulas and constipation of the genitarian tract)
  • Prostate - the replacement of the glandular fabric of the prostate binding effect, which leads to a decrease in the size of the prostate and to complete its functionality (the only way to treat surgical interventions))
  • Cysts and stones that occur in the prostate due to long -term chronic inflammation (surgically);
  • Disorder of sexual function (up to infertility).

Diagnostic measures

The diagnosis is carried out using the following methods:

Diagnosis of chronic prostatitis
  1. Visual examination of the patient (examination of the genitals to identify rashes and unload from the urethra);
  2. Rectal examination (to determine the structure, consistency, pain and the preservation of the secret of the prostate);
  3. Bacteriological examination line from the urethra;
  4. Laboratory examination of blood and urine tests.
  5. In some cases, an ultrasound examination (ultrasound or echography) is prescribed in order to obtain a more precise diagnosis.

After changing the echogenicity of individual areas, the degree of the inflammatory process is evaluated, the echobillus chronic prostatitis determines: an increase in the size of the prostate, diffuse changes in its structure, the presence of pathological formations in the tissues.

The most pronounced echographic characteristics are present during the transrectal ultrasound.It is considered more informative and reliable than transabdominal.

Signs of chronic prostatitis with ultrasound:

  1. An increase in the volume of the prostate by 20 cm3.
  2. Change the structure of the fabric (it will be heterogeneous)
  3. The presence of prostate swelling.
  4. The presence of fibrosis and lime meat in the prostate.

Treatment of chronic prostatitis

The treatment of this disease is a time -consuming and longer processes and should be strictly under the supervision of a doctor.

It is carried out with medication by complex methods:

  • Antibiotics of different groups, depending on the testimony of the diagnosis.Take 10 to 14 days (depending on the severity of the disease).
  • Anti -inflammatory tablets, injections and rectal suppositories that reduce pain and reduce the inflammatory process;
  • Immun modulators to increase the body of the body and the positive effect on cell function.
  • Alpha blockers promote the drainage of urine and remove the cramp and tension of the muscles of the bladder and urethra.

In addition, it is recommended that the prostate massage (to improve blood circulation and normalize the functionality of the prostate gland), the use of physiotherapeutic methods (electrophoresis, laser and magnet therapy), for the use of physiotherapeutic methods).

With proper treatment, the patient should have a complete remission (lack of symptoms of the disease over a long period of time).

Preventive measures

The prevention of the disease of the prostate includes:

  1. Compliance with diet and drinking mode.
  2. Maintain normal body weight.
  3. Regular physical education and sport.
  4. Increasing immunity.
  5. Strengthening the nervous system.
  6. Exclusion from the use of harmful food.
  7. Restriction of alcohol consumption and the rejection of smoking.
  8. Introduction of regular sexual activities;
  9. Timely treatment of inflammatory and infectious diseases;
  10. Exclusion of wearing close underwear.
  11. Avoid hypothermia.
  12. Annual preventive examinations with a urologist.

It should not be forgotten that chronic prostatitis is easier to prevent (to observe some rules) than for many years to suffer from an unpleasant illness.
