Does Herbal Enema Work for Chronic Prostatitis?
With the development of medicine, there are many ways to treat diseases. Enema, as a basic means of diagnosis and treatment, has been widely used in the clinic for a long time, but in recent years, enema with Chinese herbal decoction has been used to treat chronic prostatitis.
In view of the special anatomy of the prostate and the common causes of chronic prostatitis, as well as the shortcomings of systemic medication in the treatment of chronic prostatitis, medical workers have tried to use the decoction of herbal medicine into water to perform enema, which has achieved good results in the treatment of chronic prostatitis.
What is an herbal enema?
Herbal enema is also known as rectal administration. It is a method of treating diseases through intestinal mucosa absorption by infusing Chinese herbal decoction or powder into the rectum.
Mechanism
According to preliminary research and analysis, there may be two mechanisms of herbal enema in the treatment of chronic prostatitis.
First, because prostate is located in the pelvic cavity, adjacent to the rectum, the effective ingredients can not only be absorbed through the intestinal wall into the blood circulation and then act on the prostate gland, but also directly act on the prostate through the rectum and play a therapeutic role (such as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, etc.).
Second, because the temperature of herbal enema is generally controlled at about 40℃, so the warming effect of the herbal enema can directly act on the prostate, accelerate the blood circulation in the prostate, strengthen the phagocytosis function of the white blood cells, and discharge the metabolites and toxic substances in the prostate so that the local inflammation can be dissipated, and fibro scar tissue softens.
In addition, herbal enema treatment of chronic prostatitis also has a flexible prescription, the formula is different from person to person, the operation is simple, and the side effect is little.
Side effects of herbal enema
However, an herbal enema can only alleviate symptoms caused by chronic prostatitis, and the therapeutic effect is not very satisfactory. Therefore, long-term herbal enema is not recommended. It is easy to damage the intestinal mucosa for a long time, which has a bad effect on intestinal health. In addition, it will cause a loss of beneficial flora.
Therefore, patients can consider taking herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill for treatment. This herbal formula not only has a very strong bactericidal effect, can achieve a broad-spectrum effect, but also has the effect of clearing away metabolic waste, promoting blood circulation to relieve pain.
Therefore, it can effectively alleviate patients' discomfort in urination and pelvic pain. In addition, this medicine can also help patients to regulate the whole body and improve immunity and resistance, so as to achieve the effect of getting a thorough cure and preventing disease recurrence.
