Today, modern medicine can offer drugs with a wide variety of therapeutic effects for the treatment of a disease called prostatitis. If we talk about even the most complex and serious manifestations of this disease, they can be cured if all the doctor's prescriptions are followed and comprehensive treatment is carried out.
Prostatitis– the most common urological disease, which is an inflammatory process in the prostate gland. According to statistics, approximately 3 out of 5 men between 20 and 50 years old suffer from prostatitis. Even from the age of 16-18, this disease can be contracted, for example, with banal hypothermia of the pelvic area. Complications of advanced forms of this disease are impotence, infertility, inflammatory diseases of other organs of the genitourinary system and prostate cancer.
Since there are many reasons for the development of prostatitis, it is impossible to identify the most effective remedy for prostatitis.
In the presence of infectious and non-infectious forms of the inflammatory process, a wide variety of types of drugs or their complex combinations are used. The choice of drugs is especially influenced by the general condition of the patient, the presence of concomitant diseases and complications.
Types of therapeutic treatment depending on the form of the disease.
Medications for the treatment of prostatitis are available in a wide variety of dosage forms. These medications can come in the form of tablets, capsules, injections, and rectal suppositories. By using these drugs in combination, you can get a faster positive result and almost complete recovery.
The complex of treatment procedures includes antibiotic therapy, prostate massage, immunostimulation and physiotherapy. Correcting the patient's lifestyle plays a very important role in the treatment of prostate diseases.
More recently, traditional medicine has recognized traditional methods of combating prostatitis. Certain medications can be purchased ready-made at the pharmacy, while others can be collected and prepared yourself. This herbal collection includes anti-inflammatory, diuretic, relaxing and calming herbs; This treatment can be used in addition to the main treatment after consulting with a qualified specialist.
Treatment acutely.
The acute form of prostatitis is caused by various pathogenic bacteria and microorganisms. The main symptoms of this disease include general intoxication of the body, elevated body temperature and chills. Very often there is pain in the groin and lower back area, and there is an increased urge to urinate. The process of urination is quite painful and is accompanied by the release of pus from the urethra.
Treatment of acute conditions.– the use of prostatitis medications, such as antibiotics. They have a fairly broad spectral activity and are capable of penetrating prostate tissue. The most common types are macrolides, cephalosporins, protected penicillins, and fluoroquinolones.
The choice of an effective drug always depends on the type of microorganism and its sensitivity to a particular type of antibiotic. Treatment is mainly outpatient; in particularly advanced cases, with severe poisoning, urgent hospitalization is indicated; In the presence of serious complications, surgical intervention is recommended.
chronic stage
Chronic inflammation of the gland is the result of an acute phase suffered without adequate treatment or of an acute course of the disease that has not been completely cured. The characteristic symptoms are persistent pain in the genital area, perineum or rectum. There may be a burning sensation when urinating, worsening sleep, and irritability. Complications of the chronic course are male infertility, erectile dysfunction and the inflammatory process of the pelvic organs.
Treatment must be outpatient, but it takes longer than in the acute form. Medicines for the treatment of the chronic form must be selected by a specialist on a strictly individual basis, the choice of the necessary medicines depends on the quality of the previous treatment and the sensitivity of the bacterial agents. In addition to antibiotics, immunomodulators, analgesics, physiotherapy procedures and prostate massage are used.
At this stage, medications such as rectal suppositories (suppositories) have become widespread. They effectively combat inflammation of the gland, increase local immunity, improve blood microcirculation and inhibit pathogenic microorganisms. The most popular preparations are products based on an extract of bull prostate tissue.
Very often cases such as asymptomatic chronic prostatitis can be observed, which does not present obvious signs and occurs latently in the body. The treating specialist knows what medication to take in this case, but most often medications with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects are recommended.
Precautionary measures
After antibiotic treatment for acute prostatitis, it is necessary to take medications aimed at combating relapses and preventing chronicity.
For this, herbal preparations and immunocorrectors are prescribed. Prostate massage is quite effective as a preventive treatment.
Additionally, you should adjust your lifestyle and exercise more frequently. Special gymnastic methods have been developed designed to improve the functioning of the prostate and other organs of the genitourinary system. It is important to have a regular sexual partner and lead a normal sexual life.
Therapy of acute and especially chronic stages of inflammation of the prostate is a rather long and financially expensive process. Many times it is not possible to cure it completely, the use of medications only helps to relieve the symptoms and improve the patient's well-being. Therefore, the best treatment for prostatitis is timely preventive measures.
New treatment methods.
Modern treatment methods do not stand still. More and more new drugs for prostate inflammation are periodically developed. These include adrenergic blockers, they relieve spasms in the bladder, sphincter and prostate, this promotes the free release of secretions from the glands, and also prevents congestion and bloating.
Sometimes female hormones are used to treat inflammatory processes in the prostate. They reduce the inflammation process and can cure it in combination with other medications.
To quickly obtain the desired effect of treatment of any form of prostatitis, medications should be prescribed exclusively by a specialist urologist andrologist. After studying the patient's condition and passing all tests, identifying all possible concomitant diseases and complications, the specialist will create an individual physiotherapeutic and medicinal complex. Only compliance with all the specialist's recommendations allows patients to achieve a complete recovery.
