Experts said that at present, because many antibiotics are difficult to enter the prostate through the lipid envelope of the prostate to play a therapeutic role, some doctors take direct injection of antibacterial drugs into the prostate to treat prostatitis.
However, experts remind that injection treatment of prostatitis has advantages and disadvantages. For this, the following editor will introduce the advantages and disadvantages of injection treatment of prostatitis one by one.
1、 Benefits
1. The drug is injected directly into the prostate and reaches an effective therapeutic concentration in the prostate.
2. Ultrasound-guided prostate puncture can make drugs more accurately reach the lesions to be treated.
3. The liquid medicine injected into the prostate can also spread widely from the injection site to the surrounding tissues, which can not only kill the bacteria at the injection site, but also kill the bacteria around it, and stay in the tissues for a certain time to play an antibacterial role.
4. Some of the absorbed blood can also synergistically eliminate the infection of urethra and other parts.
2、 Disadvantages
1. Puncture is easy to cause local injury, and complications such as hematuria and hematospermia will disappear after weeks.
2. It is easy to bring in bacteria through skin from outside, especially through rectal mucosa, which can cause infection of prostate and surrounding tissues.
3. Puncture and drug injection can cause pain and discomfort, and repeated puncture is required, which is difficult for patients to endure.
4. Repeated injections can cause hyperplasia and sclerosis of fibrous tissue of the prostate, which can affect the effect of other treatment methods in the future, and should be carefully selected.
