In recent years, inflammation of the prostate gland in men is the number one other disease. According to medical statistics, the number of patients is increasing every year. With the right approach to treatment and adherence to the medical regimen, the disease can be defeated. An individual device for the treatment of prostatitis, recommended by an experienced urologist, can become a real salvation from infection.
Prostatitis and its treatment
Prostatitis is one of the most common diseases in men over 35. Manifested by pain in the scrotum or penis, frequent urination and painful urination. Patients often complain of sexual dysfunction and premature ejaculation. Inflammation begins with the release of epithelial cells that accumulate in the urinary tract and become overgrown with mucus. These cells then harden into small stones. The latter clog the ducts, hence the pain when urinating.
Prostatitis is manifested by inflammation of the prostate gland, which is treated with both drugs and folk remedies. The prostate gland not only controls urination. With its help, a special secretion is released, which dilutes the sperm. The disease can be acute or chronic. Acute prostatitis is much easier to recognize and treat faster. Signs of the onset of the disease are pain and difficulty urinating and erection problems. The symptoms are unpleasant, so at the first signs of the disease should be treated.
The most common cause of the disease lies in urogenital infections such as chlamydia, trichomoniasis, gonorrhea. A crucial role in the spread of infection belongs to the congestion in the tissues. This is a circulatory disorder and edema. The risk of getting this disease becomes higher if a person drinks alcohol frequently and is addicted to drugs. The reasons can be many: weight loss after surgery, sedentary lifestyle, chronic diseases that reduce immunity.
Patients with uncomplicated forms of the disease are treated on an outpatient basis. In severe prostatitis, especially with purulent discharge, patients are hospitalized.
Medicines for treatment are chosen depending on the test results, and pills alone are not enough. The treatment must be comprehensive: antibacterial drugs, antibiotics, massages, physiotherapy, acupuncture, etc. are prescribed. Recently, various devices are increasingly used in the treatment, which are available in large numbers on the market.
Indications for use and principle of action
Apparatus treatment of prostatitis and prostate adenoma is used in the complex therapy of severe cases of the disease. Urologists recommend their use in an inpatient setting or at home in combination with medication. The massage-vibrating effect of different devices, together with different types of physiotherapeutic radiation, is very often used in urological practice. The indications for their use are as follows:
- chronic types of inflammation;
- the presence of adhesions and narrowings in the tissues of the prostate gland;
- erectile dysfunction;
- pain and discomfort when urinating;
- poor pelvic circulation;
- neurogenic disorders.
In the acute stage of inflammation, all devices are contraindicated due to possible complications. When choosing a device for the treatment of prostatitis, it is necessary to check whether there is a certificate and level of safety. The principle of operation of the device for the treatment of prostatitis is a direct effect on the damaged tissue and the restoration of normal blood circulation in it.
In relation to the site of application, all devices are divided into those that directly affect the prostate and are the most effective, and devices that act through the perineal tissue. The most effective method for medical devices is the massage with special attachments included in the set.
The non-invasive type of exposure (through the perineal tissue) is not as effective, but can be used alone without special training. Most clinics use devices that operate on the basis of electrical stimulation, which generate impulses that quickly reach the affected area. At the same time, the muscles contract and this gives a positive result in 80%. Unfortunately, many devices on the market are deceptive and have no therapeutic effect, so you should only buy in reliable pharmacies and always be interested in a certificate.
Types of devices
Today there are many devices for the treatment of prostatitis. Prostate massagers are designed for individual use. Some products are certified for quality.
Prostate massager. The disadvantage is that the devices are massive enough for such a procedure. In addition, for large men, the length of the massager's head is not enough to produce a high-quality massage.
During the massage the patient is completely relaxed and feels itchy. With regular use of the device, prostatitis can not only be completely cured, but also prevent its further development. As for the shortcomings, they also exist:
- First, the physical apparatus cannot work on the body's energy for a long time, which is why its period of work is short.
- Second, the massagers can be moved during operation and this creates discomfort for the patient.
One of the safest devices is the therapeutic massager, which has a specific shape. It allows you to make movements without injuring the rectum. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that they can massage the outer part of the perineum.
These devices are made of silicone, safe for health. This material allows the vibration wave to penetrate deeper into the depths of the tissues, thus increasing the efficiency of the device. And although the price is almost no different from other products, urologists advise to buy it.
