The treatment of prostatitis - one of the most common male diseases - is an extremely delicate process. The disease itself mainly affects older men, although recently there has been a persistent tendency to rejuvenate its victims, and it is now possible to detect prostatitis not only in people in their 40s, but also in men in their 30s. Prostatitis is to blame for decreased erection, so knowledge of how to quickly cure prostatitis can be useful for a man at any age.
Symptoms and diagnosis of prostatitis
The axiom does not require proof that, in order to cure a disease, it is necessary to first diagnose it correctly and determine the causes of its occurrence.
In medical reference books, prostatitis is classified as an inflammatory process that affects the prostate. The inflammation is triggered by fungi, viruses or bacteria that have entered the prostate. The prostate may also become inflamed due to prolonged stagnation of blood in the blood vessels in the pelvis and scrotum.
Factors that increase the risk of prostatitis include a sedentary lifestyle, smoking, sexual abstinence and, paradoxically, frequent use of the sauna. All of these factors alter blood circulation in the pelvic region, objectively contributing to the lymph stagnation in it. As a result, immunity decreases and the body becomes more susceptible to attack by viruses or bacteria.
There are acute and chronic forms of prostatitis. The signs of the onset of prostate inflammation are:
- the appearance of discomfort in the groin, testicles or penis;
- pain in the groin or perineum;
- pain when urinating and bowel movements;
- increase in body temperature accompanied by chills;
- decreased erection.
If you don't pay attention to these symptoms and don't see a doctor in time, prostatitis in an acute way becomes chronic and, in rare cases, an inflammatory process that started in the prostate can cause general blood poisoning.
So, when the first symptoms of the disease appear, you cannot hesitate to visit the doctor. It should never be forgotten that prostatitis, which has gone from acute to chronic, significantly reduces not only man's sexual activity, but also the sexual sensations he experiences.
The modern development of medicine makes it possible to diagnose prostatitis at the very beginning of the inflammatory process. This is facilitated mainly by distinct pronounced symptoms, inherent only in this disease.
For the correct diagnosis, the doctor can send the patient for an ultrasound or tomography. But in fact, in most cases, for an accurate diagnosis of prostate inflammation, a qualitative analysis of the number of leukocytes in the urine is sufficient. Another thing is that, to identify the cause of the inflammatory process, a comprehensive study may be necessary, in which even the results of ultrasound and tomography will be few. But the decision on such a study is made only by a doctor.
Some aspects of treatment
Today, in pharmacies, you can find many drugs for the treatment of prostatitis. They are usually products of well-known brands and are quite expensive. The reality of current medicine is such that, due to the aggressive public advertising of these drugs, doctors, in general, prescribe something more expensive.
Prostatitis is a very unpleasant disease for men, but it does not represent a direct threat to the patient's life, which is why the main pharmaceutical companies have long commercialized their treatment, making substantial profits from the sale of their medicines.
However, treatment of prostatitis is one of those rare cases where you can effectively use the means available. The acute form and all kinds of complications of the disease are treated only in one hospital, and here you have to follow the doctor's prescriptions. But with the early stage of prostatitis and its chronic form, not everything is so simple.
So, having known the doctor's diagnosis and received a sick leave with a prescription for outpatient treatment and a prescription for expensive drug names, there is no need to rush to buy them. With a rich selection of time-tested traditional remedies for prostatitis, treatment for this disease will cost much cheaper.
Almost all pharmacological preparations are intended only for the treatment of prostatitis, while many folk remedies can not only effectively cure the disease, especially in its early stages, but are also an excellent prophylactic agent. In other words, if you regularly take these drugs to prevent prostatitis, you will hardly need treatment for it.
Furthermore, when choosing between modern pharmacological preparations and folk remedies, it must be borne in mind that factory preparations contain a large number of artificial chemical compounds that can cause severe allergies.
The best to treat the disease
To cure prostatitis, traditional healers often recommend:
- pumpkin seeds;
- leaves and hazelnut shell;
- chestnuts; propolis; aspen bark;
- asparagus juice;
- black elderberries;
- honey candles.
Pumpkin seeds have long been used by healers and healers to treat male diseases and increase their potency. In terms of combining effectiveness and cost of treatment, this is one of the best options. There is a lot of zinc in pumpkin seeds - an trace element, the lack of which in the male body, treatment of prostatitis will be ineffective. The effect is given only by raw, dried seeds and, even more so by fries, there will be little sense.
Aspen bark, infused with vodka, also helps to treat prostatitis. However, not all bark is suitable for treatment, but harvested in early spring, before the buds of the trees and with a thickness of 3 to 5 mm. You can also treat prostatitis with hazelnut. Thin branches of hazelnut with flowering leaves are prepared and drunk instead of tea for a quarter of a cup 4 times a day. You can also prepare bare branches, but you only need to boil them twice as long. 2 to 4 weeks of this tea - and the symptoms of the disease will no longer bother you. But, to eliminate the cause of the inflammation, it is best to alternate it with other treatment methods.
Prostatitis is also well treated with chestnut tincture. Although the course of this treatment lasts for up to six months, it has practically no contraindications, so even older men can use it safely. The main advantages of this method are that with the help of the brown tincture it is possible not only to relieve discomfort, but also to eliminate the cause of inflammation of the prostate. You can prepare the tincture yourself in your home kitchen. The full course of treatment includes 3 courses of 1 month duration, but there must be 2 intervals between courses, also 1 month in duration. To make prostatitis treatment as effective as possible, other treatment methods can be used during monthly breaks.
Effective treatment of prostatitis is also provided by bee products: honey and propolis, which have long been famous for their anti-inflammatory properties. They are not used in their pure form for treatment, but as components of effective drugs, these products are irreplaceable.

Diet and exercises
Prostatitis treatment does not require a special diet, but it will be much more effective if certain dietary rules are followed during treatment. It is necessary to exclude fish and meat dishes during the treatment, as well as spices and spicy seasonings: pepper, garlic, horseradish, onion, radish and the like. It is also not recommended to abuse foods such as whole milk, white cabbage and all types of legumes during treatment, as they cause increased gas formation in the intestine.
The only thing that should be strictly followed during treatment is to consume as much fluids as possible. It is desirable that they also have a diuretic effect, since the treatment of prostatitis requires maximum washing of the urinary tract.
Simple exercises will help to increase the effectiveness of the treatment. In the morning, when getting up after sleep, it is necessary to massage the perineum for 5 minutes. Then, contract and relax your muscles several times, simulating urination. These exercises help to prevent prostate stagnation.
