Various causes and symptoms
Type III accounts for 90%
The "geographical location" of the prostate is adjacent to the bladder and urethra, which makes it easy to understand why prostatitis can cause dysuria, such as frequent urination and painful urination. "In addition to the typical symptoms, the symptoms of prostatitis are complex and varied, even inexplicable. Some patients even complain of a significant sense of compression in the lower abdomen, not only causing small abdominal pain, but also pain in the waist, and feeling very uncomfortable in the head." Zha Guozhang introduced.
In addition, prostatitis can also be accompanied by systemic symptoms such as tinnitus, dizziness, and mental decline such as inattention. In addition, premature ejaculation, which affects men's sexual well-being, is also one of the complications of prostatitis.
"Clinically, the prostate is divided into four types: I, II, III, and IV. Type III accounts for 90% of prostatitis. The main manifestation is pain in the pelvic region, which can be seen in the perineum, penis, perianal region, urethra, pubic region, or lumbosacral region. Abnormal urination can be manifested as urgency, frequent urination, pain in urination, and increased nocturia. Due to long-term treatment of chronic pain, the quality of life of patients decreases, and may have sexual dysfunction, anxiety, depression, and insomnia." , decreased memory, etc.
Massage is not suitable for acute authors
Prostate massage is one of the traditional treatment methods for chronic prostatitis. The method is to wear rubber gloves, apply lubricating paraffin oil, extend the index finger from around the anus into the rectum, touch the prostate, and then press with certain techniques. Some patients learn methods and then massage themselves at home. Prostate massagers are also available on the market.
Studies have shown that proper prostate massage can improve local blood circulation and alleviate symptoms, making it an adjunct therapy for type III prostatitis. "But this method is prohibited for patients with type I prostatitis," Cha Guozhang warned. Type I prostatitis is an "acute bacterial prostatitis" characterized by acute onset, characterized by chills and high fever, accompanied by persistent and significant frequent urination, urgency, pain, burning sensation of urination, difficulty in urination, and discomfort in the posterior urethra, anus, and perineum.
Warm water sitz bath for childless children
Warm water sitz baths are also commonly used folk methods to relieve prostate discomfort, which can alleviate symptoms in a short period of time. However, unmarried and non fertile individuals are not recommended to use this method. To use it, it is necessary to control the water temperature and duration.
This is because the testicle is the organ that produces sperm, and the high-temperature environment is the natural enemy of sperm. Moreover, the damage to sperm caused by high-temperature environment is irreversible, and it is difficult to recover once the damage is caused.
It can be seen that the treatment of prostatitis varies from person to person. Professor Zha Guozhang stated that the main treatment goals for chronic prostatitis are to alleviate pain, improve urination symptoms, and improve quality of life. The main treatment methods are medication, etc. He himself also created a unique "Cha's therapy", which injects drugs from the perineum and urethra, directly delivering the drugs into the prostate, changing the previous clinical treatment methods.
