[Uncover the Secrets] Several Mistakes Easily Made in the Treatment of Prostate Diseases

Many male diseases are "scared" out, which is also the biggest mistake in the treatment of male diseases at present. Prostate disease is the most common male disease, and its incidence rate is high. More than 50% of men have been troubled by prostate disease. Therefore, it is also one of the most misinformed and misleading propaganda.

Mistake 1: Prostatitis patients dare not marry

Among young and middle-aged people aged 20-50, the incidence rate of prostatitis is about 30%. Due to the privacy of the site, difficult to speak of symptoms, incorrect publicity, and non-standard diagnosis and treatment, there are many misconceptions about prostatitis in society, and even believe that patients with prostatitis will inevitably develop impotence, infertility, prostate cancer, and some even dare not marry because of this.

Expert correction: Prostatitis is a treatable disease, with a significant proportion of people with mild symptoms. It is difficult to treat because symptoms sometimes cannot be eliminated at once, but it is not impossible to eradicate them. This disease does not have a particularly significant impact on the body, is not life-threatening, and does not turn into pre prostate cancer. As long as we adhere to regular treatment, it can avoid repetition and even cure.

Mistake 2: Chronic prostatitis is kidney deficiency

The symptoms of kidney deficiency often include weak waist and knees, dizziness, insomnia, forgetfulness, premature ejaculation, impotence, and so on. Chronic prostatitis also has many similar symptoms. As a result, some patients believe that chronic prostatitis is equivalent to kidney deficiency, and therefore take various drugs and tonics to strengthen the kidney and yang, resulting in worsening symptoms of chronic prostatitis.

Expert correction: Most chronic prostatitis belongs to the type of damp-heat and blood stasis, with few simple kidney deficiency. The traditional Chinese medicine for tonifying the kidney has the effect of regulating the hypothalamic pituitary gonadal axis and promoting the secretion of prostate fluid. "Because the prostate does not excrete smoothly when inflammation occurs, the symptoms can worsen.". The indiscriminate use of drugs for tonifying the kidney and strengthening the yang is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire. Therefore, the correct method is to diminish inflammation before tonifying the kidney.

Myth 3: Prostate gland has no symptoms, no need for examination

The incidence rate of prostate cancer in China is much lower than that in western countries, but in recent years the incidence rate and mortality are increasing. Compared to other cancers, prostate cancer develops relatively slowly, but its early symptoms are not obvious, making it difficult to detect in time and perform radical surgery.

Expert correction: Because most patients have no specific manifestations, elderly people need to go to a specialized hospital every year to check their prostate health, including digital anal examination, prostate specific antigen (PSA), and ultrasound examination.

Myth 4: Psychological factors do not affect prostate disease

Many patients with prostate diseases have psychological disorders or sexual psychological abnormalities, and have different interpersonal relationships. Patients with mental disorders often have insomnia, dreaminess, dizziness, fatigue, inattention, depression, and are suspected of suffering from sexually transmitted diseases or incurable diseases.

Expert correction: People's psychological activities are very complex, coupled with the current period of social transformation, and various factors affecting people's psychology are increasing, adding psychological pressure to patients with prostate diseases. Due to the increase in unhealthy psychological activities such as anxiety and depression, the immune level decreases. Experiments have shown that a person with long-term depression has lower levels of immunoglobulins in their blood than normal people, and is much more likely to develop colds, gastric ulcers, prostatitis, and even cancer than normal people.
