How to treat mild prostatitis?

Nowadays, more and more male friends suffer from prostatitis. Many male friends will be confused. Generally, most of the patients suffering from prostatitis are middle-aged and elderly people. Why do they suffer from it at such a young age? In fact, this is inseparable from personal living habits. Some patients do not pay attention to hygiene in their lives, which leads to genital infection. Some patients are caused by too frequent sexual life. When prostatitis is discovered in the early stage, it should be treated early. Next, let's take a look at how to treat mild prostatitis.

First of all, a clinical assessment should be conducted to determine the type of disease, and treatment methods should be selected according to the cause. Psychological therapy and sexual life regulation should be carried out throughout the entire treatment process. Misunderstanding of the disease, unnecessary anxiety, and excessive abstinence will aggravate the symptoms. Prostatitis may be a disease with mild or no symptoms, a self-limiting disease that can be relieved on its own, or a disease with complex symptoms that leads to urinary tract infection, sexual dysfunction, infertility, and greatly reduced quality of life. The treatment of patients should avoid over-exaggerating the harmfulness of the disease to patients, and should also avoid taking a simple, negative, and blindly focused attitude towards antibiotic treatment. It should start with the cause and carry out comprehensive treatment.

Antimicrobial therapy

The discovery of known urinary tract pathogens in prostatic fluid culture is the basis for selecting antimicrobial treatment. If rare pathogens or commensal bacteria are found in the urogenital tract, they cannot be determined to be the causative pathogen. If patients with non-bacterial prostatitis have signs of bacterial infection and general treatment is ineffective, antimicrobial treatment is also appropriate. When choosing antimicrobial drugs, it is necessary to pay attention to the presence of a prostate-blood barrier composed of lipid membranes between the prostatic acini and the microcirculation, which hinders the passage of water-soluble antibiotics and greatly reduces the effectiveness of treatment. Some bacteria secrete a glycoprotein matrix that prevents antibiotics from approaching bacteria. When prostatic stones are present, the stones can become a shelter for bacteria. The above factors make chronic bacterial prostatitis difficult to treat, requiring a long course of treatment and prone to relapse.

I believe that everyone has a certain understanding of how to treat mild prostatitis after reading the above content. In many cases, for mild prostatitis, early treatment has a high chance of cure, but some patients often miss the best treatment period due to personal problems, causing the condition to become more and more serious.
