Prostatitis is a common chronic disease of the male reproductive system, mainly caused by severe infection of the prostate. After developing prostatitis, the patient may experience symptoms such as urgency, frequency, and pain when urinating. In severe cases, there may even be premature ejaculation and impotence. Therefore, once diagnosed with this disease, appropriate treatment measures must be taken in a timely manner.
So how should prostatitis be treated? What nursing measures should be taken? This article will provide you with the details.
The common methods for treating prostatitis are as follows:
1. General treatment
The general treatment of prostatitis adopts drug therapy, health care, and self-regulation. The early symptoms of prostatitis are not very severe and are relatively easy to cure.
For patients with more severe symptoms, drug therapy is required. Herbal medicine like Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill, which has the effects of diuresis, anti-inflammation, and blood circulation promotion, can help patients eliminate the symptoms and root causes, and completely cure the disease.
2. Massage therapy
Massage is also a relatively ideal method for treating prostatitis. It mainly works by massaging the outer layer of the gland, promoting the drainage of the prostatic ducts, and increasing the concentration of medications, thereby achieving an auxiliary therapeutic effect and helping to relieve prostatitis.
3. Surgical treatment
After developing prostatitis, surgical treatment is also an option, although it is relatively rare. Prostatitis patients have a high probability of seminal vesicle involvement, so they need to be treated in a regular hospital to reduce the occurrence of complications. They may also need to take endocrine drugs as instructed by the doctor.
In addition to drug treatment, patients also need to do the following:
1. Pay attention to diet
After developing prostatitis, patients can appropriately eat more diuretic foods such as grapes and watermelon, and try to avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent aggravating the prostate.
2. Drink more water
After developing prostatitis, patients should drink more water every day, reaching about 1500 ml. Drinking more water not only helps to expel toxins from the body, but also assists in the treatment of prostatitis.
3. Pay attention to personal hygiene
After developing prostatitis, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene. Most prostate diseases are caused by infections, so it is important to change underwear frequently and take showers regularly.
4. Eat more fresh vegetables
After developing prostatitis, patients can appropriately eat more foods that can prevent prostate hyperplasia and prostatitis, such as chives. They can also eat more pumpkin seeds, which are rich in vitamin E and have antioxidant effects, to prevent prostate enlargement.
Patients can also eat more garlic, which contains substances that can kill bacteria and reduce inflammation, helping to eliminate pathogens in the body and promote the absorption of vitamin B1, thereby enhancing the body's resistance to the disease.
In summary, after developing prostatitis, patients can adopt the treatment methods mentioned above, and also need to pay attention to the nursing measures mentioned in the article, which are all very helpful for the prevention and treatment of prostatitis.
In addition to the above points, patients should also quit smoking and drinking, avoid spicy foods, avoid prolonged sitting, and eat more carrots, soybeans and other foods that can improve the body's immunity and inhibit cell carcinogenesis.
Patients also need to pay attention to regular prostate health checks. Once problems are found or symptoms appear, appropriate treatment measures should be taken in a timely manner to avoid worsening of the condition.
