Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate. Hypothermia, sedentary lifestyle, infection (bacterial - most often) becomes the cause of the development of the pathological process. The prostate gland swells, urination is disturbed, pains occur and are constantly disturbing - 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 cure for prostatitis. Today, there is a wide range of drugs, so it will be possible to get rid of the disease quickly, preventing the pathology from turning into a chronic form.
Characteristics of prostatitis treatment
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 that preceded the development of inflammation; send for ultrasound (or TRUS), print a referral for laboratory diagnostics. The results of these studies are of great importance - the doctor focuses on them, prescribing this or that medicine.
If you buy and take a medicine for prostatitis exclusively for personal reasons, at your discretion, you can not only make a mistake, but also harm the body. And in some cases, such treatment is simply ineffective, while prostatitis goes from an acute form to a chronic phase.
During the treatment of prostate inflammation, certain dietary and life recommendations should be followed.
- Alcohol consumption is contraindicated throughout the therapeutic course. Treatment of prostatitis is not compatible with the presence of alcohol in the blood.
- Reject intimacy. Sexual intercourse involves the accelerated production of hormones. This effect is stressful for the inflamed prostate. It is also important to understand that unprotected intimacy increases the probability of transmission of pathogenic microflora from a man to a woman's genital canal. A full-fledged act will not be the result of erectile dysfunction - a typical erectile dysfunction characteristic of men with prostatitis.
- Do not eat fried, spicy, sour and salty foods. Such a diet negatively affects the condition of the prostate, because enzymes irritate its tissue, increasing pain and exacerbating inflammation.
- In order to monitor personal hygiene and, above all, its intimate 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 the course of therapy, it is important to inform the doctor about the existing chronic diseases. The fact is that some drugs for prostatitis can not be taken in the presence of certain pathologies.
