Treatment of acute prostatitis with folk remedies
If the patient has signs of acute prostatitis, such as sharp pain in the lower abdomen, severe burning sensation while urinating, and high fever, poor urination, a doctor should be consulted. Prostatitis can be infectious or non-infectious. In case of bacterial inflammation, antibiotics are essential.
If you do not drink antibiotics and do not take medical treatment, but instead treat the bacterial infection with folk remedies, you run the risk of causing severe pus, which can lead to sepsis. Heating the prostate with infectious inflammation is especially dangerous because the bacteria multiply much faster in the heat.
If the patient has recurrent non-bacterial inflammation of the prostate, prescriptions for conventional medicine can be used in complex therapy. But not all prescriptions should be used with medication. In the case of acute prostatitis, the following remedies are effective:
