It has long been known that the more complete the treatment, the faster the disease will recede. So, it will be much easier to deal with prostatitis if you take several steps at once, or make a competent treatment plan, which is quite simple for an experienced doctor. For this there is a comprehensive treatment for prostatitis.
Why complex treatment?
Inflammation of the prostate can occur for several reasons, for example, if a man "received" pathogenic bacteria from his sexual partners, or leads a sedentary lifestyle that has led to stagnation of sperm or blood in the pelvic region.
But in order to cure the disease, it is necessary to eliminate the cause of its development, eliminate harmful bacteria and stagnation, strengthen immunity after suppression with antibiotics and saturate the body with vitamins so that it can fight the virus on its own.
And in order to turn all of the above into reality, a comprehensive treatment program is needed.
A set of measures to treat prostatitis?
Most often, complex treatment of prostatitis involves the use of the following methods of combating inflammation in the organ:
- Antibacterial (antibiotic therapy);
- Anti-inflammatory therapy;
- immunomodulatory;
- physiotherapy;
- Phytotherapy.
In some cases, surgery may also be part of a treatment plan. They resort to it for all kinds of complications of acute and chronic prostatitis. For example, it may be an abscess or the need to restore patency of the urethral canal due to its strong narrowing.
Drug therapy
Complex treatment of prostatitis cannot be called such without drugs. The patient is prescribed antibacterial agents necessary to remove harmful bacteria from the body. And without these drugs, healing is impossible. These are usually broad-spectrum antibiotics.
Anti-inflammatory therapy is no less important. Most often, the doctor prescribes drugs in the form of rectal suppositories, because they reach the diseased organ much faster and more accurately.
Acute prostatitis is characterized by severe pain and fever. To eliminate these symptoms, the doctor prescribes other suppositories.
Immunostimulatory therapy consists of taking tablets rich in vitamins and microelements. But the main thing is that this drug should contain a large amount of zinc - this element is very important for men's health.
Herbal medicine and physiotherapy
Herbs - there is no more useful and effective medicine on Earth. In addition, they have a minimum of contraindications and almost never give side effects. In the treatment of prostatitis, it is recommended to drink teas of chamomile, sage, lemon balm, calendula. You can also infuse these herbs in the form of microenemas through the rectum. Often doctors prescribe similar prescriptions to their patients because they fit perfectly into the treatment plan.
Physiotherapy treatments are just as important as antibiotic therapy. With the help of various devices, it is possible to improve blood and lymph flow, resorption of inflammatory foci, improve metabolism in the pelvic region and restore prostate functionality.
This also includes prostate massage. There are several types, but the main thing is the ability of this method to eliminate stagnant processes. Complex treatment of chronic prostatitis cannot take place without massage.
Lifestyle correction
You need to think about lifestyle even in the stage of prostatitis prevention, but if the disease has already been diagnosed, it is never too late to change your habits. The main thing is that it will really help to cure prostatitis sooner.
Proper nutrition, regular walks in the fresh air, rejection of nicotine and alcohol, a full-fledged sex life with a proven partner - that's what little is needed in the complex therapy of prostatitis.
In addition to morning exercise and regular walks or jogging on the street, urologists often advise patients to do at least a few physical exercises during the day. After all, if a person is constantly moving and not sitting in one place, the probability of stagnation in it will be reduced to zero.
Even a simple exercise like lifting the pelvis while lying on the floor speeds up the healing process. Of course, if you do it several times a day and regularly.
