Nearly 90% of Chronic Prostatitis Is Due to Untreated Acute Prostatitis
Written by Amanda Chou
Chronic prostatitis is a common disease in adult males with an incidence rate of 6%~32.9%. The uncontrolled acute prostate mainly causes 90% of chronic prostatitis. Chronic prostatitis patients who do not heal for a long time may lead to seminal vesiculitis, urethritis, cystitis, epididymitis, and even erectile dysfunction, infertility, and other complications.
Usually, as long as patients choose the appropriate treatment, actively cooperate with the doctor, can make the disease get a certain degree of relief. It is because people have a great misunderstanding of chronic prostatitis, so the treatment process took a lot of detours.
What are the misunderstandings of chronic prostatitis?
Misunderstanding 1. Chronic prostatitis can not be treated well
Some people think that chronic prostatitis is incurable, but there are some mistakes. Although chronic prostatitis treatment is very difficult and easy to relapse, as long as patients actively cooperate with doctors and choose appropriate drugs, prostatitis can be completely cured.
When suffering from chronic prostatitis, the prostatic epithelial lipid membrane is a barrier for various antibiotics to enter the acinar. Besides, there are micro stones in the gland tissue, so the commonly used antibiotics are not easy to enter the prostate tissue, so the curative effect is poor. And traditional Chinese medicine treatment, such as Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill, can penetrate the diaphragm into the prostate for sterilization and anti-inflammatory. The effect is more obvious.
During the rehabilitation period, patients should maintain good living habits. They should not smoke, drink, eat spicy food, sit for a long time, or ride a bicycle for a long time. They should control the frequency of sexual life, abstain from masturbation as far as possible, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, and prevent chronic prostatitis's recurrence.
Misunderstanding 2. Prostatitis patients must be abstinence
Frequent sexual life will lead to the prostate in a state of hyperemia, especially for patients with chronic prostatitis. Repeated prostatic congestion is not conducive to treatment. But it doesn't mean the patient has to be completely abstinent.
When the prostate has inflammation, there will be many bacteria and other microorganisms and toxins in the prostate tissue, which will cause severe damage to the body, and should be discharged from the body in time. If you want to excrete toxins from the body, you must keep a regular life, not wholly abstinence. Abstinence will make prostate congestion, which is not conducive to the recovery of prostate disease.
Misunderstanding 3. Chronic prostatitis is infectious
There are many causes of chronic prostatitis. General Trichomonas, gonococcus or mold caused by chronic prostatitis, is infectious, try to avoid sexual life. Chronic prostatitis caused by Mycoplasma or chlamydia can continue sexual life after cure.
Misunderstanding 4. Chronic prostatitis can lead to prostatic hyperplasia
40% of patients with chronic prostatitis will worry about the recurrence, thus turning into benign prostatic hyperplasia or even prostate cancer. There is no connection between them. Prostatic hyperplasia is mainly due to the body's androgen secretion too little caused.
