The treatment of chronic prostatitis is a difficult problem for modern medicine, often, despite all the measures taken, the chronic process cannot be completely eliminated.It is believed that a decrease in the intensity of the characteristics is already an effective result.It should be considered that the clinical image of prostate tumors (cancer) has a similar image with the latent course of chronic prostatitis.For differentiation, the PSA is determined, the concentration of which is much higher for malignant neoplasms than with a conventional inflammatory process.
The treatment of chronic prostatitis is a complex and prolonged procedure which does not always lead to a complete healing.
Classic meetings
Is there an effective treatment for a chronic form of the disease, and is it possible to get rid of it quickly?This question is almost always asked by patients to doctors at the meeting, and if the first part can be answered in the affirmative, then getting rid of the problem "quickly" will not work.The treatment of prostatitis takes exactly the most time it has developed, namely: the rest of his life.It is impossible to eliminate chronic prostatitis at all and it is impossible to make the gland of the prostate "new" in principle.The only thing that is in power is to stop all the unpleasant symptoms and delay the appearance of relapses, but only on condition that the man himself realizes all the instructions of the doctor.
A classic example: a drug course, rectal massage and certain other methods is prescribed, one plus is a normalization of lifestyle, the rejection of alcohol.As a rule, drugs are taken, but with the rejection of drinks containing alcohol, it's much worse for good nutrition.And many men make massage in hostility, considering its shameful manipulation.Consequently, the treatment that the doctor has prescribed is ineffective due to non-compliance with all therapy conditions and the chronic process moves smoothly in helplessness and other health problems.
It is important to remember that chronic prostatitis requires more in -depth attention than acute.The course of therapy is multi -component;For a specialist with many years of experience and with the development of modern medicine, disease is not a problem.
