What other treatment options are there to treat chronic prostatitis?
Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate. This walnut-sized gland secretes fluid into semen. Prostatitis is widespread and affects men of all ages. According to a study published in the World Journal of Urology, about two out of every 100 men worldwide suffer from chronic prostatitis.
White blood cells, a sign of infection, are usually found in urine and prostate secretions. However, no bacteria are evident. Still, doctors often prescribe antibiotics in case there's an undetected bacterial infection. But as in your case, such treatment is generally ineffective.
CP/CPPS may result from a cascade of events. The initial event may be an undetected infection (from some sort of microbe that we haven't discovered yet), or a physical trauma that causes inflammation. Over time, the inflammation leads to heightened pain sensitivity. The condition may extend beyond the prostate. The chronic inflammation may affect the nerves near the prostate gland. This, in turn, could affect bowel, bladder and sexual function. These are all reasonable theories, but they are unproven.
Symptoms of CP/CPPS include:
Pain in the lower back and genital area;
Having to urinate frequently and urgently (feeling like you can't hold it in);
Burning or painful urination and ejaculation.
Treatment aims to reduce discomfort. Pain medications that reduce inflammation - such as aspirin, ibuprofen or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) - may help.
what other treatment options are there for chronic prostatitis?
Your doctor may prescribe one or more drugs. Anticholinergic drugs reduce urinary symptoms by decreasing bladder contractions. Alpha blockers relax the muscles at the neck of the bladder, easing the flow of urine. Pregabalin (Lyrica), a drug used to treat fibromyalgia, may reduce pain.
However, is there a cure for CP/CPPS?
Herbal medication is the choice. Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill as a herbal product has been found to cure CP/CPPS effectively. The herbs in the pills such as plantago asiatica and pangolin scale work to activate blood circulation, resolve stasis and promote qi circulation to relieve pain. This medication improves the condition of the prostate gland successfully. Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill is the unique treatment option for chronic prostatitis.
