The treatment of prostatitis - one of the most common male diseases - is an extremely delicate process. The disease itself mainly affects older men, although recently there has been a steady trend of rejuvenation of victims and today it is possible to detect prostatitis not only in 40-year-old men but also in 30-year-old men. Prostatitis is the culprit for the reduction of erections, therefore the knowledge of how to quickly cure prostatitis can be useful for a man of any age.
Symptoms and diagnosis of prostatitis
The axiom does not require proof that in order to cure a disease, it must first be properly diagnosed and the causes of its occurrence.
Prostatitis is classified in medical records as an inflammatory process that affects the prostate gland. Inflammation is caused by fungi, viruses or bacteria that enter the prostate. The prostate gland can also become inflamed through prolonged stagnation of blood in the blood vessels of the pelvis and scrotum.
Factors that increase the risk of prostatitis include a sedentary lifestyle, smoking, sexual abstinence and, paradoxically, frequent use of the sauna. All these factors change the blood circulation in the pelvic area, objectively contributing to the stagnation of the lymph in it. As a result, the immunity decreases and the body becomes more susceptible to attack by viruses or bacteria.
There are acute and chronic forms of prostatitis. The signs of inflammation of the prostate are:
- the appearance of discomfort in the groin, testicles or penis;
- soreness in the groin or perineum;
- pain during urination and defecation;
- fever accompanied by chills;
- reduced erection.
If you do not pay attention to these symptoms and do not visit a doctor in time, acute prostatitis turns into a chronic and in rare cases inflammatory process, which began in the prostate gland, can cause general blood poisoning.
So when the first symptoms of the disease appear, you can not hesitate to see a doctor. It should never be forgotten that prostatitis, which has gone from acute to chronic, significantly reduces not only a man's sexual activity, but also the sexual sensations he experiences.
The modern development of medicine makes it possible to diagnose prostatitis at the very beginning of the inflammatory process. This is facilitated primarily by the pronounced, inherent only in this disease, distinctive symptoms.
For a correct diagnosis, the doctor may send the patient for an ultrasound or tomography. But in fact, in most cases, a qualitative analysis of the number of leukocytes in the urine is sufficient for an accurate diagnosis of inflammation of the prostate gland. Another thing is that to determine the cause of the inflammatory process, a comprehensive study may be needed, in which even the results of ultrasound and tomography will be small. But the decision for such a study is made only by a doctor.
Some aspects of treatment
Today in pharmacies you can find many drugs for the treatment of prostatitis. These are usually products of well-known brands and are quite expensive. The realities of today's medicine are such that due to aggressive public advertising of such drugs, doctors usually prescribe something that is more expensive.
Prostatitis is a very unpleasant disease for men, but it does not pose a direct threat to the patient's life. That is why the leading pharmaceutical corporations have long commercialized his treatment, making significant profits from the sale of their drugs.
However, the treatment of prostatitis is one of those rare cases where you can effectively use the available means. The acute form and all kinds of complications of the disease are treated only in a hospital and here you must follow the doctor's prescriptions. But with the initial stage of prostatitis and its chronic form, everything is not so simple.
Therefore, once you have learned the diagnosis from the doctor and received from him a sick note with a prescription for outpatient treatment and a prescription with the names of expensive drugs, there is no need to rush to buy them. With a rich selection of time-tested traditional medicine for prostatitis, the treatment of this disease will cost you an order of magnitude cheaper.
Almost all pharmacological preparations are aimed only at the treatment of prostatitis, while many folk remedies can not only effectively cure the disease, especially in its early stages, but are also an excellent prophylactic. In other words, if you take these medications regularly to prevent prostatitis, you are unlikely to need treatment.
In addition, when making a choice between modern pharmacological preparations and folk remedies, it should be borne in mind that factory preparations contain a large number of artificial chemical compounds that can cause severe allergies.
The better the disease is treated
To treat prostatitis, traditional healers most often recommend:
- pumpkin seeds;
- hazelnut leaves and bark;
- chestnuts;
- propolis;
- aspen bark;
- asparagus juice;
- black elderberries;
- parsley;
- honey candles.
Pumpkin seeds have long been used by healers and healers to treat male diseases and improve potency. In terms of the combination of treatment effectiveness and cost, this is one of the best options. Pumpkin seeds contain a lot of zinc - a trace element, in the absence of which in the male body the treatment of prostatitis will be ineffective. The effect is given only by raw seeds, dried and even more than fried, it makes no sense.
Aspen bark soaked in vodka also effectively helps treat prostatitis. However, not every bark is suitable for processing, but is collected in early spring, before the buds of the trees and with a thickness of 3 to 5 mm. You can also treat prostatitis with hazelnuts. Thin hazel twigs with flowering leaves are boiled and drunk instead of tea a quarter cup 4 times a day. You can also boil bare twigs, but you only need to boil them twice as long. 2-4 weeks of such tea - and the symptoms of the disease will cease to irritate you. But to eliminate the cause of inflammation, it is better to alternate this with other methods of treatment.
Prostatitis is also treated well with chestnut infusion. Although the course of such treatment lasts up to six months, it has virtually no contraindications, so even older men can use it safely. The main advantages of this method are that with the help of chestnut tincture it is possible not only to relieve discomfort, but also to eliminate the cause of inflammation of the prostate gland. You can prepare the tincture yourself in your home kitchen. The full cycle of treatment includes 3 courses lasting 1 month, but between courses there should be 2 breaks, also 1 month. In order to treat prostatitis as effectively as possible, other treatments can even be used during monthly breaks.
Effective treatment of prostatitis is also provided by bee products: honey and propolis, which have long been known for their anti-inflammatory properties. They are not used in pure form for treatment, but as components of effective drugs, these products are indispensable.
Simple folk recipes
To prevent inflammation of the prostate gland, it is enough for a man to eat 30 pieces of raw pumpkin seeds every day. To treat prostatitis with seeds, you need to work a little, but the result is worth it. First, peel 0. 5 kg of pumpkin seeds and beat them in a blender or grind them in a meat grinder. Then add a cup (200 g) of honey to this mass and mix everything well.
From the resulting mixture are formed balls the size of a walnut (possibly a little more - there will be no harm). It is mandatory to store these blanks in the refrigerator, but it should be borne in mind that they can not be used cold. Therefore, they must be removed from the refrigerator beforehand so that their temperature approaches room temperature.
This medicine should be taken 1-2 balls in the morning, half an hour before meals. The balls should not be swallowed, but slowly dissolved, stretching the pleasure for 2-3 minutes. The treatment cannot be interrupted, the course must continue until all the formed balls are exhausted. One such course per year is usually sufficient to set a reliable barrier to prostatitis. But if this recipe did not help, then you should use other means - you should not abuse them.
100 g of dried and crushed aspen in the oven are poured with a glass of vodka, closed with a tight lid and left for 2 weeks in a dark place to infuse. Then strain the infusion when taken in a quarter cup of water, add 20 drops of tincture and drink before meals. You should take it 3 times a day, the course of treatment is designed for 2 months.
Chestnuts are peeled from the brown rind and then crushed into small pieces. Then the crushed chestnut peel is poured into a thermos and 600 ml of boiling water is poured. After 12 hours, the tincture of the thermos is placed in a water bath, evaporated until its volume is reduced to 200 ml. filter through 3-4 layers of gauze and send in the refrigerator. You should use it 3 times a day, 30 drops before meals.
40 g of propolis are evaporated in 200 ml of medical alcohol. Then this propolis is mixed with cocoa bean oil in the amount of: 0, 1 g propolis 2 g butter. 30 suppositories are then formed from this mixture and each suppository is inserted into the rectum every night before bedtime. When the candles run out, take a break of 1-1, 5 months and repeat the course of treatment.
Diet and exercise
Treatment of prostatitis does not require a special diet, but will be much more effective if certain dietary rules are followed during treatment. It is necessary to exclude from the menu fish and meat dishes during the treatment, as well as hot spices and condiments: black pepper, garlic, horseradish, onion, radish and the like. It is also not recommended to abuse foods such as whole milk, white cabbage and all types of legumes during treatment, as they cause increased flatulence.
The only thing that must be strictly observed during treatment is to consume as many different fluids as possible. It is desirable that they also have a diuretic effect, as the treatment of prostatitis requires maximum urinary lavage.
Simple exercises will help increase the effectiveness of treatment. In the morning, getting up after sleep, you should massage the perineum for 5 minutes. Then tighten and relax the muscles several times, simulating urination. These exercises help to avoid stagnation in the prostate gland.
