Is prostate treatment good?

Prostatitis is a disease that many people have heard of. It is an inflammation that occurs in the prostate. The prostate plays a relatively large role in men. If the prostate is inflamed, it will have a certain impact on the health of the male urinary system, and will also seriously affect the quality of male sexual life and fertility. So, can prostatitis be cured?

1. Can prostate be cured?

First of all, a clinical evaluation should be conducted to determine the type of disease and select treatment methods based on the cause. Misunderstanding of the disease, unnecessary anxiety and excessive abstinence will aggravate the symptoms, so the patient's mental concerns should be relieved. 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, etc. The treatment of patients should avoid over-exaggerating the harmfulness of the disease to patients, and also avoid taking a simple, negative, and blindly focused attitude towards antibiotic treatment. Individualized comprehensive treatment should be adopted.

2. Physical therapy for prostatitis

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.

3. Prostate massage and heat therapy

Prostate massage is one of the traditional treatment methods. Studies have shown that proper prostate massage can promote the emptying of the prostate duct, increase local drug concentration, and thus relieve the clinical symptoms of chronic prostatitis. Heat therapy mainly uses the heat effect produced by a variety of physical means to increase blood circulation in prostate tissue, accelerate metabolism, and help to eliminate tissue edema and relieve pelvic floor muscle spasms.

4. Surgical treatment of prostatitis

Surgical treatment can be used for recurrent chronic bacterial prostatitis. Prostatectomy can achieve the goal of cure, but it should be used with caution. Because prostatitis usually affects the peripheral zone of the gland, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is difficult to achieve the goal of treatment. TURP can remove prostate stones and bacterial infection lesions near the prostate ducts, which helps to reduce the reinfection of peripheral zone lesions.
