According to Science Daily, research from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland shows that treatment of gum disease may help reduce Prostatitis, which causes dysuria. Previous studies have shown a link between gum disease and Prostatitis.
The study included 27 men over the age of 21 with Prostatitis and moderated to severe gum disease. Men treated for gum disease improved significantly after four to eight weeks, the author of the study said. According to a recent study published in dentistry, none of these men received treatment for Prostatitis, but 21 out of 27 had improved symptoms after treatment for gum disease.
Periodontal therapy can improve not only the symptoms of Prostatitis but also reduce the serum PSA level of patients with chronic periodontitis. During the periodontal care, all patients did not receive the treatment of prostate disease. The results showed that the serum level of spa decreased even in the patients without inflammation, but decreased significantly in the patients with high serum spa after periodontal treatment.
"This study shows that if we treat gum disease, we can improve the symptoms of prostatitis and the quality of life of patients with the disease." Nabil Bissada, Ph.D., a professor of Periodontology at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, co-author of the study, said in a university press release.
Bissada said gum disease not only affects the mouth but also causes inflammation in other parts of the body. Previous studies at Case Western Reserve University have found a link between gum disease and fetal death, heart disease, and rheumatoid arthritis, the researchers said. He wants to treat gum disease as part of the standard treatment for prostate disease, just as a dental exam is recommended before a heart operation or for pregnant women or women preparing for pregnancy.
Although the treatment of gum disease may have some auxiliary effect, the common method of Prostatitis is antibiotic treatment. Antibiotic drugs diffuse into the prostatic fluid from plasma, and most of them are effective for Gram-positive bacilli causing urinary tract infection.
However, the therapeutic effect is not ideal because they can not penetrate the lipid membrane of the prostatic epithelium and enter into prostatic acini. Therefore, patients can also be treated by taking herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill orally. Compared with the side effects and limitations of modern antibiotic empirical treatment, the therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese herbal medicine will be better.
On the basis of ancient prescriptions, Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill, which is strictly compatible, and can not only have the effect of targeted treatment in the treatment of Prostatitis but also help the patients to regulate the whole body and improve immunity, so as to achieve the effect of eliminating diseases and preventing a recurrence.
Tips:
Many men in peacetime did not do a good job in prostate nursing measures, resulting in various kinds of stimulation and inflammation, leading to Prostatitis. Therefore, in order to prevent Prostatitis from causing physical harm to oneself, we should protect it in ordinary times, keep a regular lifestyle, and a healthy diet so as to avoid the recurrence of chronic Prostatitis and affect sexual function.
