Prostatitis is a common and frequently occurring disease in young and middle-aged men, often caused by urethritis, seminal vesiculitis, or epididymitis.
Experts point out that the reason why young and middle-aged people often experience acute and chronic prostatitis is that this period is the peak period of male sexual function, with frequent sexual activity. Under the stimulation of sexual excitement, it can easily lead to repeated congestion of the prostate and induce inflammation.
The blood circulation characteristics of the prostate are:
The arterial blood supply is relatively rich, while the venous blood return is relatively resistant. If there are some factors that promote the long-term repeated congestion of the prostate, the venous return barrier will be aggravated, and local blood stasis will lead to prostatitis. The prime of life is also the period when prostate secretion is most vigorous, and prostatic fluid provides good conditions for the growth of bacteria.
During this period, the chances of prostate merging with other diseases are also significantly increased. If personal hygiene is not taken seriously, the body's resistance is low, or other parts of the body become infected, pathogens can enter the prostate and form acute or chronic inflammation. If you have prostatitis, you should treat it correctly and actively treat it. Some people's condition is always good and bad when treated, mainly due to a lack of proper understanding and adherence to treatment
Three key points in the treatment of prostatitis
Correct Understanding and Elimination of Psychological Burden in the Treatment of Prostatitis
Many patients with chronic prostatitis often experience severe psychological burden due to prolonged treatment, with around 50% experiencing varying degrees of mental symptoms, and even 1% to 3% believing that "life is better than death" and having a tendency to commit suicide. This is extremely detrimental to the treatment and recovery of the disease, and some patients are caused by severe mental and psychological abnormalities. Many doctors believe that chronic prostatitis is a physical and mental illness. Therefore, eliminating anxiety, reducing mental and psychological burden, and diverting attention from physical abnormalities are crucial for the recovery of the disease.
When treating prostatitis, it is important to avoid taking it easy.
Chronic prostatitis is a complex and difficult to treat disease. To adhere to comprehensive treatment, a certain course of treatment is required, usually for 1-3 months, and after the treatment is effective, it is necessary to continue to consolidate the treatment for a period of time. It is important to avoid "stopping at the first sign of improvement". Some patients refuse to continue treatment due to significant relief or disappearance of clinical symptoms, but in reality, patients' subjective feelings and objective examinations often differ, and once the time is ripe, they may relapse. The cure criteria for chronic prostatitis also include the normal results of prostatic fluid test and the removal of the causes that will lead to prostatitis.
Developing good habits for treating prostatitis
Good living habits include paying attention to daily life, keeping adequate rest and sleep, taking part in physical exercise moderately to prevent excessive fatigue, having regular sex life, not drinking too much, not eating a lot of stimulating food, sitting or riding for a long time soon, living in a cold and humid place soon, and preventing infectious diseases such as influenza.
