In a certain case, the acute bacterial prostatitis may frequently display as part of an acute urinary infection which involves the prostate gland in men and is considered as a severe systemic infection in clinical practice.
Doctors point out that the pathogenesis is mostly spontaneous, and in some cases, which is about 10%, it is a consequence of a urinary tract manipulation like cystourethroscopy or transrectal prostate biopsy. In addition, enterobacteria such as E coli is found to be the predominant responsible bacteria.
Strictly speaking, a discreet medical history and a physical examination are fundamental factors. The typical presentation includes fever, intense perineal pain, and irritative and/or obstructive voiding symptoms, rarely evolving into urinary retention. Accompanying epididymitis and the existence of a prostate abscess are possible complications, said the doctor.
The urosepsis may also occur in patients with bacterial prostatitis. Therefore, the physical examination should include palpation of the abdomen to exclude urinary retention and other causes of abdominal pain. Scrotal evaluation aims to detect the signs of epididymitis, and carry a gentle digital rectal examination without prostate massage, which is not recommended due to the risk of bacterial dissemination.
When having palpation, the sick prostate gland can be also described as hot, tender, and swollen. It is common to find patients with chronic prostatitis who have received multiple antibiotic courses without a positive culture. In fact, this is the first line therapy for many physicians. Commonly, this may be due to the theory that an unknown causative organism may play the role in improving the manifestations of chronic prostatitis.
When patients do find identifiable bacteria in their prostatic fluid and there is reliable evidence of chronic prostatitis, doctors suggest that antibiotics, specifically fluoroquinolones and macrolides, will be not very effective in clearing these bacteria and alleviating the males’ symptoms, including the pain and sexual symptoms. Statistics show that the improvement rates of antibiotics on patients with chronic prostatitis are not beyond 45%.
The good news is that
traditional Chinese medicine treatments offer the opportunity to directly target the infected bladder with less systemic side effects. As an important component of traditional medicine, traditional Chinese medicine is widely spread and applied in many countries and regions around the world. Scientific standardization and international development of traditional Chinese medicine have led into the international application of Chinese medicine.
In recent years, with the growing popularity of traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed to compensate for the deficiencies of chemical medicine. The
Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill is a representative of traditional Chinese medicine in the field of male urogenital system therapy. It works well on solving male patients with chronic prostatitis, no matter what the bacterium is or none.
Further, the pill leads to no side effects or drug resistance during the long-term treatment course. With the wide application in clinical practice, it has been proved as a safe and effective methods for male patients.
