Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate. Hypothermia, a sedentary lifestyle, infection (bacterial - most often) becomes the cause of the development of the pathological process. The prostate gland swells, urination is disturbed, pain arises and then constantly disturbed - in the perineum, inside the urethra, above the pub. To get rid of inflammation faster, you should contact a urologist who will prescribe medication for prostatitis. Today there is a wide range of drugs, so it will be possible to get rid of the disease quickly, preventing the transition of the pathology to a chronic form.
Characteristics of the treatment of prostatitis
It is important to understand that only a urologist can prescribe an effective treatment for prostatitis. He will conduct an examination, interview for the events that preceded the development of inflammation. will send for ultrasound (or TRUS), will write a reference for laboratory diagnostics. The results of these studies are very important - the doctor focuses on them, prescribing this or that medicine.
If you buy and take a prostatitis medicine solely for personal reasons, in your sole discretion, you can not only make a mistake, but also harm the body. And in some cases, such treatment is simply ineffective, while acute prostatitis goes into a chronic stage.
During the treatment of prostate inflammation, certain diet and lifestyle recommendations must be followed.
- Alcohol consumption is contraindicated throughout treatment. The treatment of prostatitis is incompatible with the presence of alcohols in the blood.
- Deny intimacy. Sexual intercourse involves the accelerated production of hormones. This effect is stressful for inflammation of the prostate. It is also important to understand that unprotected intimacy increases the likelihood of transmitting pathogenic microflora from a man to a woman's genital tract. A complete operation 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 negatively affects the condition of the prostate, as enzymes irritate its tissue, increasing pain and worsening inflammation.
- To monitor personal hygiene and its first part, 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 treatment course, it is important to inform the doctor about the existing chronic diseases. The fact is that some medicines for prostatitis can not be taken in the presence of certain pathologies.
