How to treat painful urination? Male prostatitis may be

If a male friend experiences painful urination, the most likely cause is prostatitis. Prostatitis can cause symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain during urination. It requires timely treatment. In addition, more attention should be paid to the prevention of prostatitis in daily life. Drink plenty of water, avoid sitting for long periods of time, and exercise more.

1. Ultrasound therapy : Ultrasound refers to vibration waves with a frequency of more than 20,000 cycles/second that cannot cause auditory response in normal people. The commonly used frequency in clinical practice is 800-1000 kilocycles/second. Medical ultrasound can improve local healing fluid and lymphatic circulation, strengthen local metabolism, change tissue acidity and alkalinity, change pH to alkaline, reduce local acidosis, and relieve or eliminate pain. Ultrasound therapy is suitable for patients with chronic prostatitis who have obvious urinary tract irritation symptoms and a large number of white blood cells in prostatic fluid microscopy.

2. Shortwave therapy: It is a high-frequency current therapy. The current used is called shortwave current, and the frequency is 3*10 6~3*10

7 Hz, wavelength is 10~100 meters, and the voltage during treatment is 90~120 volts. The bactericidal effect of shortwave is not direct, but an indirect effect produced by shortwave enhancing the body's immune defense mechanism. Shortwave therapy is easy to operate. Two electrodes are used during treatment, one on the buttocks and the other on the pubic bone in the lower abdomen. Each treatment lasts 15~30 minutes, once a day, and a course of treatment is 2 weeks. This therapy is suitable for acute and chronic prostatitis and those with more white blood cells in prostate scopy.

3. Ultrashort wave therapy: It is another method of treatment using high-frequency electric current. The frequency of the electric current is relatively high, generally 30~300 MHz, the wavelength is 10-1 meter, and the voltage during treatment is 40~50 volts. Its mechanism of action and adaptations are the same as those of shortwave therapy, but its ability to penetrate tissues and kill microorganisms is much greater than that of shortwave.

4. Microwave therapy: It is a new high-frequency electrotherapy. The frequency is 2450 MHz and the wavelength is 12.5 cm. It is easier to penetrate into the tissue than shortwave and ultrashortwave. It has a strong ability to kill microorganisms in deep tissues, and it will not overheat the subcutaneous tissue and the heat generated is uniform. The method of use is to put the microwave emitting probe into the rectum about 5 to 6 cm deep, and irradiate the prostate through the rectal wall. Each irradiation lasts 8 to 12 minutes, once a day or every other day, and a course of treatment is two weeks. Microwaves are generally harmless to the human body under normal dosage, but the testicles are very sensitive to microwaves. Therefore, when treating prostatitis, care must be taken to protect the testicles from irradiation. People with infertility caused by prostatitis should be more careful when using this method.

5. Direct current drug ion introduction method : It is a method that uses direct current to diffuse drug ions into tissues through the skin or mucous membranes to achieve the purpose of treating diseases. The main route for drugs to enter the human body is the opening of the skin and sweat gland ducts, and then gradually enter the blood and lymph; its treatment is the synergistic effect of direct current and drugs. Both Chinese and Western medicines can be introduced by ion, such as 1% streptomycin solution, 10% scutellaria solution, etc. Before the operation, the patient clears the stool, and the drug solution is poured into the rectum from the anus, and then direct current is applied, and the drug components can penetrate into it. Once a day, 20 minutes each time, two weeks as a course of treatment. This method is suitable for those with severe pain and obvious bladder irritation symptoms of chronic prostatitis.
