Inflammation of the prostate is characterized by a chronic or acute course. Such pathologies usually occur against the background of stagnation with low gases, microtraumatic injuries, infections or penetration of pathogens into the urethra. It is perfectly acceptable to treat chronic prostatitis at home, but only under the supervision of a specialist.
Treatment of chronic prostatitis can take up to several months, during which patients are advised to take prescribed medication, undergo physiotherapy and massage procedures.
Features of chronic prostatitis
Chronic inflammation of the prostate occurs quite often in men aged 25-50 years. This form of pathology is characterized by periodic exacerbations and periods of remission, which are constantly replaced.
- Sometimes inflammation is of infectious origin, which develops as a result of damage by bacterial pathogens. The vital activity of these bacteria negatively affects the prostate tissues, destroying them.
- There is also non-infectious prostatitis, which is caused by low-basal congestion and other factors. One of the non-infectious forms of the prostate is congestive prostatitis, which occurs in the background of congestion.
- Chronic inflammation of the prostate is accompanied by rather unpleasant symptomatic manifestations such as frequent and painful urination, weakening of erectile function, lack of orgasm or pain in the abdomen and perineum.
- But it happens that the pathology secretly develops and manifests itself already in the phase of deterioration after the chronicity of the inflammatory process.
It is completely impossible to cure chronic prostatitis, but it is quite possible to keep the pathology under control so that it remains in remission for a long time. If exacerbation occurs, then it is necessary to use drug therapy and home methods.
