Prostatitis frightens many men. Prostate disease has become a common and frequently occurring disease that disturbs men's health. The incidence rate is on the rise and young. Prostate disease seriously affects the normal life of male friends. After inflammation and destruction of the prostate gland, it often leads to a decrease in semen quality, abnormal sexual function, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and even infertility. Therefore, male friends must protect their prostate gland. Let's take a closer look at how long it takes to treat prostatitis.
The treatment time for prostatitis is directly related to the following factors:
1、 Prostatitis is not caused by a specific bacterial infection, and multiple bacteria can cause the disease. Due to the unclear etiology, targeted treatment is difficult to achieve, resulting in a long course of treatment.
2、 Prostatitis patients generally have a longer course of disease, often accompanied by symptoms of urethral obstruction and irritation. Prostatitis is often accompanied by dysfunction of the posterior urethral neuromuscular system, dysfunction of the bladder neck function, and/or spasm of the pelvic muscle group, which increases the pressure on the prostate urethra during urination, making it easy for urine in the urethra to flow back into the prostate, causing urine reflux. The returned urine not only brings bacteria, but also may cause "chemical" prostatitis and prostate stones, and increase the patient's susceptibility, making it difficult to cure after infection.
3、 The occurrence of prostatitis is influenced by various factors, such as daily habits, dietary habits, smoking, alcohol, spicy foods, and marital sexual activity, which can all affect the therapeutic effect.
4、 Due to the complex anatomical structure and unique physiological characteristics of the prostate, as well as the barrier effect of lipids in the prostate capsule and acinar epithelium, various antibiotics cannot enter the prostate acini and secretions. Many drugs are difficult to directly enter the prostate, and treatment requires a systematic process.
Therefore, most patients with prostatitis require 1-3 courses of treatment, which takes approximately 2-3 months to improve. Sometimes persistent prostatitis can even last for several years. Patients must be patient during treatment and cannot "fish for three days and bask in the net for two days". The so-called "three point treatment, seven point maintenance", when treating prostatitis, attention should be paid to maintenance measures. During the treatment process, you can eat more tomatoes and lotus seeds. The lycopene in tomatoes has a direct therapeutic effect on the prostate, and lotus seeds also have a good alleviating effect on the frequency and urgency of urination of patients.
