Prostatitis is one of the most common urological diseases, accompanied by the inflammation of the prostate's tissue.According to official medical statistics data, prostatitis is diagnosed in each tenth patient.This is due to the complexity of the early diagnosis of pathology and the frequent course of the disease in a hidden way.As for the age category of men who are at risk, prostatitis was previously considered elderly disease.In recent years, the ailment is quickly young.This is due to a sedentary lifestyle, malnutrition, tensions present in the life of a modern person.According to doctors, the treatment of the disease should begin as soon as possible.To do this, you should know how pathology arises, what first signs of prostatitis in men should pay close attention.
Types of inflammation of the prostate and classification of signs
The signs of the inflammatory process in the prostate are very diverse, which is associated with the presence of various types in the disease:
- Spicy.It is often purulent.The signs of inflammation in men, both general and specific, are expressed as much as possible, and the pathogen is the pathogenic (pathogenic) flora.Therefore, treatment in most cases is to prescribe antibiotics.
- Chronic.It may be the result of an acute process if the treatment of a man was carried out incorrect or inopportune.The bright symptoms that accompany the purulent process disappear, the signs of the disease are much weaker.In remission, the characteristics characteristics of the process can disappear completely.With the exacerbation of chronic prostatitis, symptoms improve, but more often less intensity than in the acute course of the disease.
Chronic prostatitis in men can initially form without previous signs of acute inflammation.In this case, prostatitis is more often stagnant, that is, that arises from a sedentary lifestyle, the presence of chronic diseases that affect blood circulation in pelvic organs.It is very important to know and be able to distinguish between the first signs of inflammation of the prostate in men, because this affects the choice of additional treatment.If in the case of bacterial prostatitis, which will indicate the symptoms of general intoxication, the treatment must include antibiotic therapy (tablets, injections, candles), then with a stagnation process, the treatment of congestion reaches the first place, that is, modification of the image and therapy of concomitant aggressions.Among the signs of prostatitis, a common and specific one can distinguish.The latter, in turn, are divided into several groups:
- Pain syndrome.
- Urine disorders.Otherwise, this group of signs is called "ever disorders."
- Disorders in the genital area.
- Changes from the nervous system.
- External manifestations.
- Sterility.
General signs of the disease
The general symptoms of prostatitis generally mean generally spacing reactions, indicating the development of an acute inflammatory process in the body.Naturally, in chronic prostatitis, these phenomena are absent (except in cases of pronounced exacerbation).The signs of the active inflammatory process are:
- Increased body temperature.The degree of increase is associated with the seriousness of inflammation.In acute bacterial prostatitis, especially accompanied by the formation of an abscess, the temperature can reach 39-40 ° C. This condition is accompanied by other pronounced signs of the disease.The first viral inflammation sign of the prostate gland can also be a high temperature.
- General weakness, headache.
- Shivers.Breaking chills is characteristic of bacterial prostatitis.
- Loin in the muscles.
The general manifestations of inflammation are rarely the only marker of prostatitis.But there are exceptions.For example, a slow chronic form of the disease with low gravity of specific characteristics sometimes leads to subfebrilet (increasing body temperature to 37.2-37.3 ° C).The diagnosis of the disease in a similar situation can be established only after the exam and additional studies, including sowing the secret of the prostate for pathogenic microorganisms.
Specific Signs of the disease
Consider the specific signs of inflammation of the prostate gland, which allows a precise diagnosis and prescribe an effective pathology treatment.
Pain syndrome
The main and, often, the first sign of inflammation of the prostate is pain.The nature of pain can vary significantly.There are sewing, pain and characteristic location pain.If this is an acute process, then they can significantly affect the life of men, lead to sleep and performance.In chronic prostatitis during remission, pain is weak and sometimes completely absent.A typical pain in prostatitis is a small pelvis.A man can feel pain in the crotch, under the abdomen, in the lower back.They often emit in the penis, scrotum, testicles.The pain can be accompanied by urination and defecation, as well as intensify during an erection and ejaculation.A first characteristic sign of the calculation of the disease can be the pain, intensity and time of the appearance depends on the movement.They appear or intensify, if a man leaves quickly, jumps, leans.A similar sign is due to the mechanical irritation of the walls of the ducts.
Urine disorders
The no less frequent signs of inflammation of the prostate are several urination disorders.Dysuria is manifested by the need to make frequent urinating, an incomplete emptying of the bladder and false calls of urination.The very nature of the urine can also change: a man complains about a slow or intermittent urine flow, the need to make efforts to normally help.A formidable sign, although not the first, of inflammation of the prostate is an acute urinary retention.The symptom develops with acute inflammation, accompanied by severe edema of the prostate gland.In case of exacerbation of chronic prostatitis, urinary retention, but can also have less intensity.More often, a man simply cannot contain a large amount of urine, and a frequent visit to the bathroom is necessary.Dysuria and pain syndrome are the first most common manifestations of any form of prostatitis.It is they who are initials and prevail in the clinic in acute prostatitis or chronic exacerbation.
Disorders in the genital sphere
Unpleasant for most representatives of the strongest sex, although rarely, the manifestation of prostatitis is sexual dysfunction.Intimate sphere disorders are often the result of a chronic inflammatory process and are of a different nature.First, there are problems with an erection.It can become slow, or a man cannot completely complete sexual relations.Ejaculation is disturbed: premature is more common.Over time, the usual severity of sensations is erased.The purely physiological problem becomes psychological.Sexual desire disorders (libido disorders) are developing, problems with orgasm arise.
Changes from the nervous system
These signs negatively affect the general condition of the nervous system, causing a decrease in mood, depression, sleep alterations.A man stops feeling his own fullness.Being constant in a state of stress and depression with your own condition can cause aggressive behavior, irritability and a tendency to conflicts in several men.In this clinical situation, the treatment only of prostatitis does not lead to the normalization of a psychological state.In this case, an experienced psychologist is required, which can prescribe an antidepressant course, it is even possible after the treatment of the underlying disease.
External manifestations
Together with the disorders of the sexual sphere with prostatitis, there is a change in sperm.For example, purulent prostatitis will be accompanied by a color change, smell of seed fluid.Depending on the pathogen that caused the process, the biological fluid can become yellow, green, yellow-green.Sometimes the discharge of the urethra hole and sexual intercourse appears.They are also distinguished by color, smell and other characteristics, although the mucous and transparent discharge that appears in the morning hours is more common.A man can detect pathological impurities in the urine after urine.These are mucous threads, also more often in the portion of the morning urine.Several pathological impurities in several situations remain the first and only manifestation of the inflammatory process.The impurities in the sperm can have a bloody character, which serves as a sign of calculusal inflammation.The condition is called erythrospermia.This phenomenon arises due to the trauma of the walls with stones.As the first sign of prostatitis is rare, therefore, when blood impurities appear in sperm, all other diseases should always be excluded.
Male infertility
The only sign of a chronic slow inflammatory process can be infertility.Often, during a man's examination about the impossibility of involving a child in a stronger sex representative, there is an ancient inflammatory process, which led to a violation of the normal sperm formation process.During the examination in men, there is a decrease in the sperm of full right, as well as a decrease in the mobility of male germ cells.
Dependency of the clinic in the stadium and the type of disease
The dependence on the clinical image of the disease in the type of prostatitis and its stage is well known.Consider it in detail.
Clinic in acute bacterial prostatitis
Acute bacterial prostatitis develops due to the penetration of pathogenically pathogenic bacteria in the prostate gland.This type of prostatitis requires timely treatment, otherwise, the consequence of the disease can be poisoning of blood.
Signals:
- chills and elevated body temperature;
- throw and acute pain in the lower back, groin and perineum;
- frequent urine;
- insufficiency of emptying independent of the bladder;
- painful urine;
- Urex download.
Manifestations in chronic bacterial prostatitis
The development of chronic bacterial prostatitis is facilitated by constant hypothermia, premature urine and long sexual abstinence.In the absence of timely therapy, chronic bacterial prostatitis can cause cystitis.
Signals:
- Pain at the bottom of the abdomen, perineum, scrotum;
- rape of power;
- urine violation.
Non -bacterial chronic prostatitis symptoms
Chronic non -bacterial prostatitis is the most common form of male urological diseases.Most of the time, this ailment is a reflection of extragenital diseases.
Signals:
- Pain syndrome in the pelvic area, which can last 3-6 months;
- Periodic pain in the urethra, the bladder, the penis;
- The absence of signs of the inflammatory process in the secret of prostate, seed fluid and urine.
Symptoms with stagnant prostate
The main reason for the appearance of congestive prostatitis is the stagnation of the secret of the prostate and venous blood in the pelvis.
Signals:
- lethargy of orgasmic sensations;
- weakened erection;
- slight difficulty in urine;
- pain pain in the perineum;
- fast urinating in the morning;
- Libido decreases.
Signs of the asymptomatic course of the disease
This form of prostate pathology is not associated with a bacterial infection and has no pronounced symptoms.Asymptomatic inflammation of the prostate can only be detected by a high level of leukocytes and bacteria in the urine, as well as during biopsy.Whatever the form of prostatitis in a man, the process at any stage can lead to the development of formidable complications.They can become the inflammatory processes of any urinary system (kidneys, bladder), which in turn will lead to the appearance of urolithiasis or even the development of chronic renal failure.Therefore, so that serious complications do not occur, the disease must be treated in a timely manner, and for timely treatment, of course, it must be able to recognize the first signs of the disease and resort to a time specialist.
