Don't Exaggerate Your Fear When Having Chronic Prostatitis

Chronic prostatitis always brings a series of urination symptoms and pain symptoms to males, making them deeply troubled and miserable. Also, patients with chronic prostatitis are prone to psychological symptoms, resulting in male depression, loss and other adverse emotions. In this regard, Wuhan Dr.Lee Xiaoping said that comprehensive treatment is the key to chronic prostatitis.

Why can chronic prostatitis produce psychological symptoms?

Dr.Lee said that because chronic prostatitis is one of the most common male diseases. There is more information about this kind of disease on the Internet. Still, many of them exaggerate the propaganda, describing chronic prostatitis as a severe disease, which aggravates patients' psychological burden.

This disease is just like a cold, and even some cases can recover slowly without treatment. However, due to the lack of correct understanding of the disease, they feel nervous and worry about whether it will cause infertility? Will it affect sexual function? Can it become a tumor?

The pathogenesis of chronic prostatitis is complex, and the treatment effect is not apparent sometimes when treating with antibiotics. Patients often go to different hospitals to see many doctors, but the treatment effect is not particularly ideal. Therefore, patients with tension, anxiety and depression, in turn, make prostatitis symptoms worsen, forming a vicious circle.

According to the clinical observation and statistics of experts, more than 50% of patients with chronic prostatitis have symptoms of anxiety, depression, fear, and pessimism, which seriously affect patients' quality of life. Experts have been able to study the correlation between patients' mental state and chronic prostatitis symptoms.

They used face-to-face conversation, questionnaire surveys, psychological tests, and other methods to collect relevant information to compared the data reflecting the type and characteristics of patients' mental symptoms with the regular control group. The results showed significant differences in somatization scores, depression, anxiety, fear, and other factors between the two groups.

According to statistical analysis, 85% of the patients with chronic prostatitis had mental symptoms to a certain extent, including apparent depression (23.62%) and anxiety (20%).

The positive factor scores from high to low were anxiety, depression, somatization, fear, etc. The results showed that the degree of psychological disorder was closely related to the duration of chronic prostatitis. The longer the course of the disease, the more serious the psychological condition. The heavier the burden on the heart, the longer the period.

How to deal with the psychological symptoms of chronic prostatitis?

First of all, it is necessary to eliminate the discomfort caused by chronic prostatitis. Herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can not only eliminate symptoms but also cure the disease fundamentally. At the same time, psychotherapy is also essential in treating chronic prostatitis. It is a method of comprehensive treatment.

The general doctor can carry on specific psychological counseling to the patient and train them to have a correct understanding. For patients with severe psychological symptoms, ask the professional psychological consultation doctors for help. Professional drug treatment, scientific use of anti-anxiety and antidepressant drugs, and professional psychologists' counseling and therapy will help patients relieve psychological symptoms.

Lee also stressed that the treatment of chronic prostatitis, in addition to the necessary drug treatment, lifestyle adjustment is important. Have a light diet and avoid wine, spicy and stimulating food. Eat less seafood, which contains high uric acid food. And then try to avoid sitting or cycling. These behaviors will cause prostate congestion, not conducive to prostate health. At the same time, strengthen exercise. Exercise, such as swimming, mountain climbing, Taijiquan, and walking, is a better life way.

Chronic prostatitis is not a severe disease. Patients should be in the correct attitude and actively accept treatment to recover as soon as possible.
