Prostate disease knowledge popularization

In today's society, many male friends have prostate diseases. Generally speaking, the symptoms of prostate diseases are fever, weakness, and various symptoms during urination, such as difficulty urinating. Today, follow the editor's steps to learn some relevant knowledge about prostate diseases, including its clinical manifestations and treatment methods.

Clinical manifestations

Type I often presents with sudden onset, with systemic symptoms such as chills, fever, fatigue, and weakness, accompanied by perineal and suprapubic pain, and even acute urinary retention. Type II and Type III have similar clinical symptoms, often with pain and abnormal urination. Regardless of the type of chronic prostatitis, similar clinical symptoms can be manifested, collectively referred to as prostatitis syndrome, including pelvic and sacral pain, abnormal urination, and sexual dysfunction. Pelvic and sacral pain is extremely complex, and the pain is generally located in the suprapubic, lumbar and perineal regions. Radiating pain can manifest as pain in the urethra, spermatic cord, testicles, groin, and lateral abdominal area. It radiates to the abdomen, similar to acute abdominal pain, and radiates along the urinary tract, similar to angina, which often leads to misdiagnosis. Abnormal urination is manifested by frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, difficulty urinating, bifurcated urine stream, dripping after urination, increased frequency of nocturia, and milky white discharge from the urethra after urination or defecation. Occasionally, sexual dysfunction occurs, including decreased libido, premature ejaculation, painful ejaculation, weak erection, and impotence. Type IV has no clinical symptoms.

treatment:

1. Antimicrobial therapy

The discovery of pathogenic pathogens in prostatic fluid culture is the basis for selecting antibacterial drugs for treatment. If patients with nonbacterial prostatitis have signs of bacterial infection and general treatment is ineffective, they can also be treated with appropriate antibacterial drugs. When choosing antibacterial drugs, it is necessary to pay attention to the existence of a prostate-blood barrier composed of lipid membranes between the prostate acini and the microcirculation, which hinders the passage of water-soluble antibiotics and greatly reduces the treatment effect.

2. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can improve symptoms. Generally, indomethacin is taken orally or in suppositories. Chinese medicine also has certain effects in using anti-inflammatory, heat-clearing, detoxifying, and hardness-softening drugs. Allopurinol can reduce the concentration of uric acid in the whole body and prostatic fluid. Theoretically, as a free radical scavenger, it can also remove active oxygen components, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. It is an optional auxiliary treatment method.

3. Physical therapy

Prostate massage can empty the concentrated secretions in the prostate duct and drain the infection focus in the obstructed area of ​​the gland. Therefore, for stubborn cases, prostate massage can be performed every 3 to 7 days while using antibiotics. A variety of physical factors are used for prostate physiotherapy, such as microwave, radio frequency, ultrashort wave, medium wave and hot water sitz bath, which are beneficial for relaxing the prostate, posterior urethral smooth muscle and pelvic floor muscle, enhancing antibacterial efficacy and relieving pain symptoms.

The above is some of the knowledge about prostate disease that I want to popularize today. I hope it will be helpful to friends with prostate disease. Although prostate disease is a relatively serious disease, there are still treatment methods. As long as you persist in treatment and treat it in time, you will get better.
