What is the best treatment for chronic prostatitis?

Chronic prostatitis is harmful to male reproductive health. I believe that many male friends have this problem. It seems that the prostate gland has suddenly become problematic. In fact, this is not surprising. After all, this is caused by its physiological characteristics. The prostate gland itself is also more susceptible to infection. So what should we do about chronic prostatitis? Let's talk about what are the good treatments for chronic prostatitis.

(1) Antibiotics: Currently, in the clinical practice of treating prostatitis, the most commonly used first-line drug is antibiotics, but only about 5% of patients with chronic prostatitis have clear bacterial infection.

(2) α-receptor blockers α-receptor blockers can relax the smooth muscles of the prostate and bladder and improve lower urinary tract symptoms and pain, thus becoming a basic drug for the treatment of type II/type III prostatitis.

(3) Herbal preparations The therapeutic effect of herbal preparations in type II and type III prostatitis is increasingly valued and is a recommended therapeutic drug. Herbal preparations mainly refer to pollen preparations and plant extracts, which have a wide range of pharmacological effects, such as non-specific anti-inflammatory, anti-edema, and promoting bladder detrusor contraction and urethral smooth muscle relaxation.

(4) Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics are empirical medications for the treatment of symptoms associated with type III prostatitis. Their main purpose is to relieve pain and discomfort.

(5) M-receptor blockers: For patients with prostatitis who have symptoms such as urgency, frequency and nocturia but no urinary tract obstruction, M-receptor blockers (such as tolterodine) can be used for treatment.

(6) Antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs For patients with chronic prostatitis who also have mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs can be used while treating prostatitis. These drugs can not only improve the patient's mood disorder symptoms, but also relieve physical symptoms such as abnormal urination and pain.

(7) Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) It is recommended that TCM treatment of prostatitis be carried out in accordance with the relevant standards of the Chinese Association of Chinese Medicine or the Chinese Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine.

Above, we have told you about various methods of treating chronic prostatitis. I believe that male friends who have this problem now have a relatively simple understanding of its treatment. I believe they also have an understanding of what good treatment methods there are for chronic prostatitis. In fact, the combination of Chinese and Western medicine is better for chronic prostatitis. Western medicine controls the disease, and Chinese medicine regulates the root cause. I believe it can lead to faster recovery.
