Prostatitis is an inflammatory disease of the prostate gland (prostate) in men. With an increase in the prostate, the urinary canal is compressed, which prevents urine passage. Inflammation of the testicles threatens infertility.
Statistics. 30% of men with prostatitis problems with self -esteem. Sexual life suffers and in 50% of cases falls the frequency of sexual contact. In most cases, prostatitis begins with a high temperature up to 39-40 ° C, heat and chills.
Normal dimensions of the prostate:
| Indicator | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Width | 3. 5 cm. |
| Thickness | About 2 cm. |
| Length | 3 cm. |
| Weight | 20 gr. |
Chronic prostatitis - in 90% of cases threatens prostate cancer! During the exacerbation period, there are sensations of pressure in the perineum and anus, aching pain that gives to the sacrum, crotch, rectum, inguinal region.
Normal indicators of the analysis of the secret of the prostate:
| Indicator | Norm | Prostatitis |
|---|---|---|
| Quantity | 0. 5 to 2 ml | Often the amount of secret is reduced compared to the norm, it is distinguished with difficulty |
| Color | The color of heavily diluted milk | White color with a yellowish tint or transparent |
| Density | 1. 022 | Above or below 1. 022 |
| Reaction | Neutral: pH 7. 0 ± 0. 3 | Slightly acidic or acidic: pH< 7. 0 |
| Lipid, or lecithin, grains (Taurus) | 1 ml of mass from 10 million Lipid grains | Reduced in 1 ml of secretion up to 10 million Lipid grains or not at all |
| Amyloid bodies | 1-2 in the field of view (with an increase of 280 - 400 times) | Absent |
| Leukocytes | With an increase in x 280 0-10 in the field of view with an increase in x 400 0-5 in the field of view or up to 300 cells per 1 μl (when counting in the counting chamber) |
With an increase in x 280 more than 10 in the field of view with an increase in x 400 more than 5 in the field of view or more than 300 cells per 1 μl (when counting in the counting chamber) |
| Epithelium of the output ducts of the glands of prostate | 1-2 in the field of view (with an increase of 280 - 400 times) | When deskvamation, the number of epitheliocytes is up to 10-15 in the field of view (with an increase of three hundred and four hundred times) |
| Betther crystals | Single | Single |
Classification:
The world has a classification of prostatitis, developed under the auspices of the United States. Allocated 4 categories:
- I - sharp;
- II - bacterial;
- III - Abacterial:
- III A - pelvic pain syndrome;
- III B - not inflammatory pelvic pain;
- IV - asymptomatic.
The role of the "2nd heart" of a man:
She "envelops" the upper part of the blade channel and includes:
- glandular slices;
- fibrous fabric;
- About 30 ducts that fall into the urethra.
The prostate must correspond to certain indicators:
- length from 2. 5 to 3. 5 cm;
- the width of the organ is from 2. 5 and to 4 cm;
- The weight of the gland is from 20 to 30 grams.
Men often prefer to hide the symptoms, contacting the hospital only when they press in every sense. This is a frivolous approach to health. The fruits of this behavior can be very sad, including infertility.
The number of patients with prostatitis is growing. It is due to the fact that we spend a lot of time in a sitting position - watching the series, behind the machine. The stagnation of the secret of the gland and blood of this organ makes it more vulnerable to infections, so the most "harmless" bacterium will easily cause inflammation.
What is important to know about the prostate?
The prostate is a very important organ. 50% of the blood of the body of a man is involved in the gland, during excitement, all 80%. 30% of men for thirty have signs of prostatitis. The main function of the prostate is the secretion of a secret, the basis of sperm. If you ride a bicycle, this guarantees its prevention.
The prostate has a powerful blood circulation, and if you are struck by infections of various types (flu, tonsillitis, tuberculosis, etc. ), then it is quite real that the infection enters the prostate along with blood flow.
It is very useful to add folk remedies to the course of treatment, they are effective not only with prostatitis, but also for adenoma. It is important to perform physical exercises, make microclysters and take special baths, in accordance with recipes.
The inflamed prostate iron grows, it squeezes the ureters and urethra. This leads to urination disorder, frequent calling to the toilet, as well as staging urine.
The adenoma in men is a benign tumor that occurs in the prostate gland, metastases do not appear. In the risk zone, all men from 45 years old. In young people, cases of disease are not recorded. It is important to fight with adenoma at the initial stages.
The infection is easily transmitted to nearby and remote organs. When one link in the body works with violations, the whole complex of relationships suffers. Microflora, which caused the disease, actively multiplies and spreads, infecting new areas.
Functions for the body:
- Secretory. Produces a substance that is part of the seed fluid. Sets the desired pH level, supports sperm in an active state.
- Motor. Muscle fibers create a urinary sphincter that holds the liquid in the bladder.
- Protective. It includes a zinc-peptide complex, lysozyme, cellular immunity factors, sperm, they prevent the growth of infection.
What will happen if you do not treat prostatitis?
Any acute form of prostatitis necessarily turns into a chronic form. Without treatment, prostatitis causes vesiculitis, cystitis, an abscess of the gland, pyelonephritis and prostate adenoma. Over time, impotence and infertility, which will be very difficult to get rid of.
Visit a doctor - it is important not to miss the first signs of prostatitis, then it will be treated for men simple, quick, effective in men.
Reasons
- Unprotected sexual relations. Infections transmitted during sexual contact (E. coli, gonococcus, herpes, chlamydia, trichomonas, mycoplasma, fungus) infect the urethra, penetrate the gland tissue;
- irregular sex life with different partners;
- hormonal imbalance;
- Sitting work. Drives, office plankton are at risk;
- A long absence of sexual relations. Abstinence, constant use of interrupted sexual intercourse as a method of protection, artificial delaying the process of ejaculation poorly affects the health of the male organ;
- Hypothermia. Fans of extreme sports (diving, skiing in the mountains, baidar) must be careful and not allow frequent hypothermia.
- Stress, constant physical and mental overload affect health.
- Alcohol abuse;
- Deficiency of vitamins and trace elements.
- Infection and bacterial inflammation. It penetrates due to urethritis or gonorrhea, less often with a sore throat, flu, tuberculosis. It also begins when infection enters the iron through lymph or blood, during unprotected sex.
- Injuries of organs and soft tissues. Most of all, this applies to drivers whose lifestyle is associated with such conditions as constant vibrations, shaking, a large load on the muscles of the perineum.
- Frequent constipation. Stool disorders can lead to inflammation in the prostate.
- Lack of personal hygiene;
- constant use of urethral catheter;
- hormonal malfunctions of the body;
- violation of allergic status;
With active sexual life, nervous and physical exhaustion occurs in men, the work of the hormonal system, the secretions of the sex glands are destroyed, which gradually reduces sexual desire and production of hormones. They are not useful to the health of men and interrupted sexual acts.
The main reasons:
- Long lack of sex
- Hypodynamia. A long stay in one position on a car or in the office slows down metabolism. Modern youth live more and more on the Web.
- Hypothermia. Reading their idols, the youth seeks to look stylish, the shkolota is dressed not in the weather, freezes its poor brain and prefers close linen and narrow jeans.
- Infections. Rasisable sexual ties are the main threat on which schoolchildren and students find themselves at the reception of a proctologist at this age. With weak immunity, any infection in the circulatory system can cause a disease. Most often, patients with Chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomonas, Ureaplasma, cytomegalovirus, gonococcus, herpes, Mycoplasma create problems. How they penetrate: from the rectum (hematogenous); from the bladder (ascending); foci of inflammation in the organs of bordering next to the prostate (hematogenous); From the organs of the genitourinary system (descending).
Congenital reasons contributing to promatitis in adolescence:
- Delay in the development of the sex glands that remove sphincters;
- Violations in the work of vascular plexus, interfering with a sufficient blood flow;
- Impaired anatomical structure of the organs located close to the prostate;
Self -medication with tablets or folk methods without conversation with a specialist is not allowed. Many tablets and herbs for the treatment of prostatitis have their restrictions and are contraindicated in some patients.
Symptoms of prostatitis
- Trips to the toilet with increasing frequency, especially at night;
- Weak intermittent urination and discomfort;
- After the end of the main stream of urine, the release of residual drops of white color;
- Pain and unpleasant sensations;
- The bladder seems to be crowded, a feeling of incomplete emptying is pursued.
- Pain in the perineum, lower part of the spinal column, abdomen;
- Sexual life problems (an orgasm, an erection is weakened, libido decreases);
- Irritive, nervousness, depressiveness.
- Changing the color of urine. It can be ordinary, but in acute prostatitis in it impurities are noticeable: pus, blood.
Acute prostatitis begins with high temperature to forty degrees with heat and chills. Urination is painful and difficult. The prostate iron is inflamed, which causes a strong delay in urination. The load is high to the work of the kidneys.
Chronic prostatitis with lighter symptoms, but at any time there may be exacerbation. Perhaps the asymptomatic course in some period. The clinical picture is often uncertain, sick people do not pay attention to the symptoms and do not go to the doctor, confusing with other diseases, which is very harmful with further treatment.
The listed signs of prostatitis are not all at once. The disease has an unpredictable course of even one patient on various temporary indicators, and in a group of patients not to identify the overall system.
A man who set a goal to recover from prostatitis must remove fried food from his diet. Instead, he needs to eat more greenery, fresh vegetables, fruits.
Often a deterioration in well -being, problems with potency are attributed to ordinary fatigue and lack of rest. It is important to determine the disease in advance, annual prevention and examinations will save you from complications and irreparable consequences of this disease.
Otherwise, unpleasant consequences can be expected that will require expensive treatment for prostatitis in a urologist. Among them, impotence, infertility, apathy and constant depression, prostate adenoma.
At the first stage of prostatitis in adolescents, it may indicate a general intoxication of the body and violation of the organs. Irritability, loss of strength, reduction in performance is one of the reasons after which you need to sound the alarm. In addition to such symptoms, young people can get psychological trauma, lose faith in their strength, be depressed, oppressed.
It is important to know that there is also asymptomatic prostatitis. The process with him does not show itself in any way, but you can suspect it after analyzes for leukocytes and bacteria in the urine. Regularly take tests throughout the year will save your emotional health.
Depending on the degree, inflammation, the process of the disease can switch to neighboring organs. These include: rectum, bladder and urethra. Therefore, there is a great probability of symptoms: urethritis, cystitis or colitis.
Physiotherapeutic treatment
To reduce the amount and frequency of pain attacks, except for tablets and other drugs, injected or rectally, experts advise simultaneously to undergo physiotherapeutic procedures. These include:
- Acupuncture (activates the work of the prostate, stimulates the outflow of lymph);
- Electrophoresis (relieves pain, stimulates the effectiveness of drug therapy);
- The effect of the pulse current (stimulates the effect of medicines);
- Ultrasound (removes seals, activates the restoration of damaged tissues);
- Magnetic therapy (weakens pain syndromes);
- UV therapy (stimulates blood circulation, activates metabolism);
- Vitamin therapy (a general strengthening effect is useful for all organs).
Only the attending physician can determine the procedures and treatment time, based on the characteristics of the body, the stages of the treatment process. As a rule, the course includes 10 - 12 procedures, which is important to perform in steps and without stops. Otherwise, the Polsa from the treatment will be minimal.
Exercise
Physical exercises are useful in the treatment of prostatitis, especially since they are not difficult to perform in a home environment, in the morning and evening, until the pain disappears:
- Actively reduce/relax the muscles of the pelvis. We recommend that you perform up to 50 movements in one approach, after a break for 2-3 minutes and repeat those movements.
- When going to the toilet for a few seconds, squeeze the stream, then relax again and finish the process. At a time in the toilet, you can do up to 7 such exercises.
- "Bicycle" and "scissors" are also effective for removing pain. To fulfill them, you need to lie on your back, put your hands behind your head. Perform without a break for at least 30 seconds, then rest for 1 minute. 3-4 approaches.
- Exercise "Birch": to fix in the position with the legs up for 20 - 25 seconds. After a pause, repeat the approach. It is recommended to do 3-4 approaches at a time. It is better to do before meals so that there are no calls to vomiting.
Folk remedies
With ordinary violations, alternative medicine will help to remove pain, but it is better to use them simultaneously with treatment - to accelerate and stabilize the desired result. Natural elements in folk remedies can cause allergies, so it is immediately necessary to check for intolerance to such drugs. If there are no contraindications, effective and proven recipes are presented below:
Important: in a severe course of the disease with a temperature of 38-39 degrees and above, hospitalization is necessary with treatment under the supervision of a doctor. Incorrect therapy and self -medication can lead to irreparable complications.
