Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland. Hypothermia, inactive lifestyle, infections (bacteria - most often) cause the development of pathological processes. The prostate gland is swollen, urination is disturbed, pain arises and then continues to interfere - in the perineum, in the urethra, above the pubis. To get rid of the inflammation faster, you need to contact a urologist who will prescribe medication for prostatitis. Today there are many types of drugs, so as to quickly get rid of the disease, preventing the pathological transition to a chronic form.
Characteristics of the treatment of prostatitis
It is important to understand that only a urologist can prescribe an effective remedy for prostatitis. He or she will conduct examinations, interviews on events that precede the development of inflammation; will send an ultrasound (or TRUS), write a reference for laboratory diagnostics. The results of this study are very important - the doctor focuses on them, prescribing this drug or that drug.
If you buy and take medication for prostatitis solely for personal reasons, at your discretion, you can not only do wrong, but can also harm the body. And in some cases, such treatment is ineffective, while prostatitis of the acute form enters the chronic stage.
During the treatment of prostate gland inflammation, certain dietary and lifestyle recommendations should be followed.
- It is contraindicated to consume alcohol throughout the entire therapy. Treatment of prostatitis is not compatible with the presence of alcohol in the blood.
- Reject intimacy. Sexual intercourse involves accelerated production of hormones. This effect is stress for the inflamed prostate gland. It is also important to understand that unprotected intimacy increases the likelihood of transfer of pathogenic microflora from men to the female genital tract. Full action will not occur because of erectile dysfunction - a special erectile dysfunction that exists in men with prostatitis.
- Do not eat fried, spicy, sour and salty foods. Such a diet has a negative impact on the condition of the prostate, because the enzymes irritate the tissues, increase pain and exacerbate inflammation.
- To monitor personal hygiene, and its intimate parts from the beginning, it is impossible to create favorable conditions for the development of inflammatory processes, especially if prostatitis is caused by a bacterial flora.
Also, before starting a course of therapy, it is important to inform the doctor about any existing chronic diseases. The fact is that some medications for prostatitis should not be taken in the presence of certain pathologies.
