Today, modern medicine can offer a variety of therapeutic drugs for the treatment of the disease called prostatitis. If we talk about even the most complex and severe manifestations of the disease, they can be cured if you follow all the doctor's prescriptions and take part in comprehensive treatment.
Prostatitis– the most common urological disease, which is the inflammatory process of the prostate. According to statistics, about 3 out of five men between the ages of 20 and 50 suffer from prostatitis. Even from the age of 16-18, you can catch this disease, for example, with banal hypothermia of the pelvic area. Complications of advanced forms of the disease include impotence, infertility, inflammatory diseases of other organs of the urogenital system, and prostate cancer.
Since there are many reasons for the development of prostatitis, it is impossible to single out the most effective remedy for prostatitis.
In the presence of infectious and non-infectious forms of the inflammatory process, a variety of drugs or their complex combinations are used. The selection of drugs is particularly influenced by the general condition of the patient, the presence of concurrent diseases and complications.
Types of therapeutic treatment depending on the form of the disease
Medicines for the treatment of prostatitis are available in many different dosage forms. These drugs can be in the form of tablets, capsules, injections and rectal suppositories. By combining these drugs, you can achieve a positive result faster and an almost complete recovery.
The complex of treatment procedures includes antibacterial therapy, prostate massage, immunostimulation and physiotherapy. The correction of the patient's lifestyle plays a huge role in the treatment of prostate diseases.
Recently, traditional medicine has recognized traditional methods of combating prostatitis. Some medicinal preparations can be bought in ready-made form at the pharmacy, others can be collected and prepared independently. This herbal collection contains anti-inflammatory, diuretic, relaxing and calming herbs, this treatment can also be used in addition to the main course after consultation with a qualified specialist.
Treatment of acute form
The acute form of prostatitis is caused by various bacteria and pathogenic microorganisms. The main symptoms of this disease include general intoxication of the body, increased body temperature and chills. Quite often, there is pain in the groin and lower back, as well as an increased urge to urinate. The process of urination is quite painful and involves the release of pus from the urethra.
Treatment of acute conditions- use of anti-prostatitis drugs, such as antibiotics. They have a fairly wide spectrum of activity and are able to penetrate the prostate tissue. The most common types are macrolides, cephalosporins, protected penicillins and fluoroquinolones.
The selection of an effective drug always depends on the type of microorganisms and their sensitivity to a specific type of antibiotic. The treatment is primarily outpatient, especially in advanced cases, in case of severe poisoning, urgent hospitalization is justified, in case of serious complications, surgical intervention is recommended.
Chronic stage
Chronic gland inflammation is the result of the acute phase suffered without proper treatment, or the acute course of the disease that has not been completely cured. Typical symptoms are shearing pain in the genital area, perineum or rectum. A burning sensation may occur during urination, sleep and irritability worsen. Complications of the chronic course are male infertility, erectile dysfunction, and the inflammatory process of the pelvic organs.
Treatment should be outpatient, but it takes longer than in the acute form. Medicines for the treatment of the chronic form must be selected strictly individually by the specialist, the selection of the necessary medicines depends on the quality of the previous treatment and the sensitivity of the bacterial agents. In addition to antibiotics, immunomodulators, pain relievers, physiotherapy procedures and prostate massage are used.
At this stage, drugs such as rectal suppositories (suppositories) are widely used. They effectively combat gland swelling, increase local immunity, improve blood microcirculation and inhibit pathogenic microorganisms. The most popular preparations are products based on the extract of the prostate gland of bulls.
Cases such as asymptomatic chronic prostatitis, which has no obvious signs and occurs latently in the body, are quite often observed. The treating specialist knows what medication to take in this case, but they most often recommend antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory medications.
Preventive measures
After antibiotic treatment of acute prostatitis, you need to take drugs aimed at combating relapses and preventing chronicity.
For this purpose, herbal preparations and immune correctors are prescribed. Prostate massage is quite effective as a preventive treatment.
You should also change your lifestyle and exercise more often. Special gymnastic methods have been developed to improve the functioning of the prostate gland and other organs of the urogenital system. It is important to have a regular sexual partner and have a normal sex life.
Treatment of acute and especially chronic stages of prostatitis is a rather long and financially expensive process. In many cases, it is not even possible to cure completely, the use of medicines only helps to relieve the symptoms and improve the patient's well-being. Therefore, the best treatment for prostatitis is timely preventive measures.
New treatment methods
Modern treatment methods do not stand still. From time to time, more and more new drugs are being developed for prostate inflammation. These include adrenergic blockers, they relieve spasms in the bladder, sphincter and prostate itself, this promotes the free release of glandular secretions and prevents congestion and swelling.
Sometimes female hormones are used to treat inflammatory processes in the prostate. They reduce the inflammatory process and can be cured in combination with other drugs.
In order to quickly achieve the desired effect from the treatment of any form of prostatitis, the drugs can only be prescribed by a urologist-andrologist. After studying the patient's condition and passing all tests, as well as identifying all possible simultaneous diseases and complications, the specialist creates an individual physiotherapy and medical complex. Only compliance with all the recommendations of the specialist allows patients to fully recover.
