In recent years, inflammation of the prostate in men has taken the first place among other diseases. According to medical statistics, the number of patients is increasing every year. With the right approach to treatment and observance of the medical regimen, the disease can be conquered. An individual device for the treatment of prostatitis, recommended by an experienced urologist, can become a real salvation against infection.
Prostatitis and its treatment
Prostatitis is one of the most common diseases in men over 35. It manifests as pain in the scrotum or penis, frequent urination, and painful urination. Patients often complain of sexual dysfunction and premature ejaculation. Inflammation begins with the detachment of epithelial cells that collect in the urinary tract and become overgrown with mucus. Then these cells harden and turn into small stones. These obstruct the ducts, hence the pain when urinating.
Prostatitis is manifested by inflammation of the prostate, which is treated both with drugs and folk remedies. The prostate doesn't just control urination. With its help, a special secret is released that dilutes the sperm. The disease can be acute or chronic. Acute prostatitis is much easier to recognize and to cure faster. Signs of an incipient disease are pain and difficulty urinating, and erection problems. The symptoms are unpleasant, therefore, at the first manifestations of the disease, it should be treated.
Most often, the cause of the disease is urogenital infections, such as chlamydia, trichomoniasis, gonorrhea. A decisive role in the spread of infection belongs to tissue congestion. It is a circulatory disorder and edema. The risk of contracting this disease increases if a person frequently drinks alcohol and is addicted to drugs. The reasons can be many: weakening of the body after surgery, immobile lifestyle, chronic diseases that decrease immunity.
Patients with uncomplicated forms of the disease are treated on an outpatient basis. With a strongly pronounced nature of prostatitis, especially with purulent discharge, patients are hospitalized.
Drugs for treatment are selected based on the results of tests, and pills alone are not enough. The treatment must be comprehensive: antibacterial drugs, antibiotics are prescribed, massages, physiotherapy, acupuncture . . . Recently, various devices are used more and more in the treatment, which are presented in large numbers on the market.
Indications for use and principle of action
Appliance treatment of prostatitis and prostate adenoma is used in the complex treatment of severe cases of the development of the disease. Urologists recommend using them in hospitals or at home in combination with medication. The massage-vibration effect of various devices, as well as various types of physiotherapeutic radiation, is very often used in urological practice. The indications for their use are as follows:
- chronic types of inflammation;
- the presence of adhesions and constrictions in the tissues of the prostate;
- impaired erection;
- pain and discomfort when urinating;
- poor blood circulation in the pelvic area;
- neurogenic disorders.
In the acute stage of inflammation, all devices are contraindicated due to possible complications. When choosing a device for the treatment of prostatitis, it is necessary to check whether it has a certificate and a level of safety. The principle of operation of the device for the treatment of prostatitis is a direct effect on the damaged tissue and the restoration of normal blood circulation in it.
As for the place of application, all devices are divided into those that directly affect the prostate and are the most effective, and devices that act through the perineal tissue. The most effective method of medical devices is massage using special accessories included in the kit.
A non-invasive type of exposure (through the perineal tissue) is not so effective, but it can be used independently without special preparation. Most clinics use devices that work on the basis of electrical stimulation, which generate pulses that quickly reach the sore spot. At the same time, the muscles contract, which gives an 80% positive result. Unfortunately, many devices on the market are fraudulent and do not have a therapeutic effect, so you should buy only from trusted pharmacies and still be interested in a certificate.
Types of devices
There are many devices available today for the treatment of prostatitis. Prostate massagers are intended for independent use. Some products are quality certified.
Prostate massager. The downside is that the devices are massive enough for such a procedure. In addition, for tall men, the length of the massager's head is not sufficient to produce a high quality massage.
During the massage the patient is completely relaxed and has goosebumps. With regular use of the device, prostatitis can not only be completely cured, but also prevent its further development. As for the gaps, they also exist:
- First, the physical apparatus cannot work on the body's energy for a long time, so its working period is short.
- Second, masseurs can move around during labor, which creates discomfort for the patient.
One of the safest devices is a therapeutic massager, which has a specific shape. It is she who makes it possible to make movements without injuring the rectum. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that they can massage the outside of the perineum.
These devices are made of silicone, which is harmless to health. This material allows the vibration wave to penetrate deeper into the depths of the tissues, thus increasing the efficiency of the device. And although in price it hardly differs from other products, this is what urologists advise to buy it.
