More than half of the male population suffers from prostatitis. This disease is characterized by the development of the inflammatory process in the prostate gland. The disease takes place in acute or chronic form. It happens in young men 20-45 years. But not everyone knows how prostatitis manifests themselves and why inflammation develops. A careless attitude towards illness makes it one of the most common in men.
Causes of the disease
The inflammatory process of the prostate most often occurs against the background of a bacterial infection. There are no exact causes of prostatitis, since the likelihood of inflammation of the tissue of the prostate increases with the weakening of immunity. The pathogenic pathology can be staphylococci, E. coli, enterococci, pseudomonas.
These infectious active ingredients are located on the mucous membranes and the skin of a healthy person, but in the event of predisposing factors, the development of the inflammatory process can cause:
- Infidant sex life: rare sexual contacts, interrupted sexual actions with incomplete ejaculation;
- Settlement;
- sitting lifestyle;
- Stagnating phenomena in the pelvic organs;
- Frequent urological diseases, sexually transmitted infections;
- Stress;
- Wear a narrow clothing that presses a man's genitals;
- Chronic alcohol poisoning, drugs, chemical agents;
- Step injuries;
- Reduce immunity.
The main symptoms of prostatitis mainly depend on the shape of the disease (acute, chronic). It is recommended to be treated in good time inflammation of the prostate, otherwise the disease decreases and regularly gives relapses. Therefore, every man should know how prostatitis begins and what signs you should be careful first.
Etiology of chronic prostatitis
Chronic prostatitis develops against the background of the acute inflammation of the prostate. During the remission period, the man is concerned about weak pain in the perineum and increases during urination, defecation and intimacy. Small slime recording from the urethra can occur when stressed.
The causes of the aggravation of chronic prostatitis can be all factors: stress, forced restriction of the emptying of the rectum or the bladder, wearing narrow lower linen, soil infections. During exacerbation, pathological characteristics can only increase slightly and manifest themselves with increased body temperature and insignificant hyperthermia. Men who suffer from chronic inflammation of the prostate are subject to frequent diseases of the disease. Even short -term stagnant phenomena can act as the reason for the development of the disease.
Forms and symptoms of acute prostatitis
Which signs of prostatitis will be available in men depends on the shape of the disease. Acute inflammation in the gland appears great. The disease has three forms: Katarrhal, follicular and parenchyma. The latter is the most difficult. Men often do not know what symptoms in prostatitis talk about the beginning of the development of the inflammatory process.
What signs of prostatitis should you pay special attention? The initial manifestations of the disease:
- Pull pain in the perineum and shame;
- Complaints when urinating intimate contacts;
- Broot, weakness;
- A minor temperature increase.
The catarrhal stage of the inflammation of the prostate is considered the simplest, but still the treatment at home is contraindicated. Processing can lead to the development of a chronic inflammatory process. Without prior consultation with a doctor, no tips can be used for healers or acquaintances, since a urologist can prescribe the most effective and correct treatment.
Consequences of inflammation occurs. There are severe pain in the crotch and penis, unpleasant sensations can cover the entire lumbar region. The main feature of this form of prostatitis in men is a painful pain that does not allow to completely empty the rectum and bladder. Against the background of this type of inflammation of the prostate, acute urinary retention develops and the quality of the patient is disrupted. In the event of early treatment, the disease can go to the next stage - parenchymal.
Parenchymal form of the disease
Symptoms of prostatitis in men with parenchymal form:
- serious illness of the patient;
- At the beginning of the disease, fast urination quickly moves into dysuria (complete urinary retention);
- The appetite is reduced, the patient is tortured by the thirst;
- Bloating, the inability to empty the intestine due to severe pain;
- Mucleus from the rectum can appear;
- The body temperature is increased, it is kept within 39 ° C.
One of the signs of prostatitis in men of this severe form is the sharp pain of the prostate during the exam. The patient's palpator examination at this stage of the inflammatory process is difficult due to a serious illness and unpleasant sensations in the genital area. If qualified treatment does not begin at this stage, the disease can make it difficult to make the occurrence of an abscess or the development of a chronic inflammatory process.
, In the event of urine delay, urgent medical care is required. The disease is characterized by an acute start with a deterioration in general well and intensive pain in the pubic area. The body temperature usually increases. Against the background of severe poisoning, the appearance of joint and muscle pain is possible.
The course of chronic prostatitis
If the symptoms of chronic prostatitis occur, men do not always go to the hospital. Pain pain can be transferred relatively easily, and the patients are in a hurry to consult a urologist. Despite the fact that chronic prostatitis is less pronounced in a man than an acute form of inflammation, the disease directly threatens the reproductive and sexual abilities of the patient. And the treatment of the chronic form of pathology is longer and in some cases even requires surgical intervention.
Symptoms of prostatitis in men's chronic form:
- Pain pain, painful pain, which are located above the Schubis in the perineum, tend to gain weight while urinating after sex;
- Urinating somewhat difficult to urinate, the intermittent of an urine current is the main symptom for chronic prostatitis.
- the appearance of the discharge from the urethra after hard work or stool;
- Impair sexual function.
In chronic prostatitis, the temperature usually remains normal. The appearance of the febrile syndrome is possible during the aggravation. Typically, the temperature of 37 degrees in prostatitis indicates a sluggish inflammatory process. It is dangerous enough, especially for a man's reproductive health.
The chronic inflammation is more imperceptant and usually only manifests itself with frequent urination and a violation of an erection. Remissions are replaced by relapses, but many men prefer not to treat their sensitive problem with a urologist, which indicates extremely irresponsibility. The disease can lead to infertility even in young men, and at an older age, the symptoms of the inflammation of the prostate are sometimes hidden by prostate cancer.
Diagnostic methods
When men have the first signs of prostatitis, the urologist carries out an external examination, the prostate examines through the rectum and determines the dimensions of the affected organ, its structure and density. The doctor's movement should be as careful as possible during the scanning.
Additional diagnostic methods for symptoms of prostate inflammation in men:
- Studied the secret of the prostate;
- Laboratory diagnostics;
- PCR research;
- Prostate -ultrasound;
- Urofloometry;
- Magnetic resonance, computer tomography of the pelvic organs.
It is recommended to examine yourself as soon as there are signs of inflammation of the prostate. This prevents complications under which erectile dysfunction, hyperplasia and infertility are often found. The examination of the causes and symptoms of prostatitis lies in the competence of the urologist. It is worth contacting even minor signs of a prostate disease.
Features of treatment
Many patients make a frequent mistake - they begin to use folk remedies, to delay the development of the disease and increase the risk of complications. The treatment scheme is selected exclusively on an individual basis, only after determining the pathogen and determining the true cause of the development of inflammation with the termination of the damage factor - smoking, pyelonephritis, violation of erection, hypothermia.
The inflammation of viral etiology is treated using antiviral medicines. Inflammation of the prostate, which was provoked by a chlamydia infection, requires antibacterial medication. A lot of attention is paid to strengthening immunity.
Under no circumstances should treatment be treated at home, as it is impossible to heal the disease with the help of traditional medicine in acute form. The chronic inflammatory process requires the intervention of experienced specialists. With modern treatment medication, you can quickly and effectively alleviate the inflammatory process and avoid the development of dangerous complications.
Pharmaceutical therapy
The following funds are used to treat inflammation of the prostate:
- antibacterial, antifungal, antiprichomonna medication (depending on the cause of the development of the disease);
- Anti -spas modos, analgesics;
- Physiotherapeutic methods.
Therefore, urologists recommend contacting doctors as soon as the first signs of prostatitis appear in a man. This will win the time. Treatment with improvised means at home is strictly contraindicated.
Every man with prostate diseases requires effective urological care. Proven drugs and modern therapeutic methods use qualified urologists. During treatment, antibacterial medication are used that easily penetrate into the prostate tissue. Special therapy is indicated during poisoning.
Physiotherapeutic treatment is also used. It is used when there are no signs of prostate disease or to prevent relapse. Each technology used by specialists should be selected taking into account the individual characteristics of a man's health.
Prostate massage
Patients with chronic inflammation of the prostate massage the gland. This procedure should only be carried out by experienced specialists, since it is a powerful treatment means that improves the drainage of astrarten anti -inflammatory secrets from the channels.
Prostate massage refers to complex treatment and a diagnostic procedure that should only be carried out by experts. It is carried out by the rectum. The organ's channels are massaged with the fingers, which stimulates the bloodstream and the drainage of the secret of the prostate, the study of which is required for many diseases of the genitals. The massage frees the channels from the accumulation of pus, eliminates stagnation, reduces the manifestations of inflammatory processes.
Possible complications
If you do not pay attention to the signs and symptoms of prostatitis, the infection for other organs of the pelvic region is possible, intensive pain when urinating and the occurrence of blood and pus in the urine and pus. In neglected form, the temperature in prostatitis in men increases noticeably.
The main complications of prostatitis:
- Vesiculite (inflammation of the seed bubbles);
- Prostate sclerosis;
- Prostate abdress;
- Prostate cysts;
- Infertility;
- Impotence;
- Purulent infections of neighboring organs.
Each of the complications can disturb the reproductive function and cause sexual disorders. Chronic inflammation is particularly dangerous. Against the background, Harnraha structures, qualitative and quantitative indicators of seed fluids are often reduced. And this threatens the development of infertility in the future.
However, the most impressive complication is viewed as hyperplasia of the gland with an increase in growth of growth of malignant tumors. A man often does not even know the growth of adenoma and cancer neoplasms until he reaches impressive sizes and have no difficulty urinating.
Preventive measures
Preventing the inflammation of the prostate gland aims to eliminate the influence of negative external and internal factors. It is recommended to avoid unprotected sexual contacts that lead to the development of sexually transmitted diseases, which are complicated by damage to the prostate tissue as well as hypothermia and radial effects on the body.
Refuse excessively tight pants and underwear that press the pelvis. Stagnation processes in the genitator organs contribute to the active reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms, the development of infectious diseases. It is also important to empty the bladder in time. One of the methods of prevention is measured and regularly sex life. Long -term stimuli leads to stagnation of blood and leads to an inflammatory reaction.
An early attraction to the urologist with the first clinical manifestations of diseases of the prostate enables you to prevent the chronic course of inflammatory processes and dangerous complications. It is much easier and easier to treat acute prostatitis than to deal with a longer course of illness.
