The incidence rate of prostatitis is getting higher and higher, mostly in middle-aged and elderly men. For men, worry is not the pain of disease, but it has a recurrence. Therefore, many male friends want to know the true reason for the recurrence of this disease, so as to prevent and avoid the recurrence of the disease as soon as possible. So, why is prostatitis easy to relapse? With this question, let me take a look with the editor below!
Why is prostatitis easy to relapse?
1、 Delaying the condition and becoming "chronic"
Acute prostatitis without timely treatment can evolve into chronic prostatitis, where bacteria are often difficult to completely kill and are prone to "resurgence". In some patients, there are even small stones forming in the prostate, which are generally not easily eliminated by drugs. The obstruction of the gland caused by stones can cause repeated attacks of prostatitis.
2、 Special "geographical location"
"The prostate is a glandular organ in the male genitourinary system. From an anatomical position, it is adjacent to the seminal vesicle, vas deferens, ureter, bladder, and rectum. Therefore, prostatitis often secondary to inflammation in other organs of the genitourinary system, often occurring simultaneously with seminal vesiculitis.". Due to the communication between the urethra and the outside world, various bacteria can easily enter the prostate through the urethral orifice and cause infection.
3、 The etiology is not yet clear
"Some prostatitis is not caused by bacterial infection, which is called non bacterial prostatitis in medicine. Mycoplasma, chlamydia, or autoimmune diseases may be one of the causes.". If antibiotics are used for treatment, patients will become victims of indiscriminate antibiotic treatment and will not recover for a long time.
4、 Blindly superstitious drugs
Some patients are completely dependent on or superstitious about the effects of drugs, but they do not realize that the basis of disease occurrence is a decrease in immunity and resistance. They usually do not pay attention to strengthening physical exercise, do not pay attention to adjusting their life patterns, have excessive sexual activity, burn midnight oil, play mahjong, and drink excessively, which can make prostatitis difficult.
5、 Neglect sexual partner treatment
Some patients with prostatitis caused by sexually transmitted diseases only know how to see a doctor themselves, ignoring the examination and treatment of their sexual partners, resulting in infection_ Treatment_ Reinfection_ A vicious cycle of re treatment.
Symptoms related to prostatitis:
A) Thin urinary line (flow): Due to decreased urination ability, the urinary line becomes thin, especially due to hyperplasia of glands, which leads to irregular edges of the urethral orifice, seriously affecting the flow of urinary line.
B) "Discomfort in urination: After urination, there is dull pain in the urethra, or there is primary posterior drainage, residual urine dripping, or discomfort in the lower abdomen.". These are not the physiological sensations of normal people after urination.
C) Urine changes: In some patients, due to prostate congestion or dilation of blood vessels in the prostate, blood vessels rupture and bleed, and hematuria can be seen at this time. Some patients may develop pyuria due to urinary tract obstruction and urinary flow obstruction, which can easily lead to urinary tract infection.
D) "Effort in urination: If the urethra is obstructed, the resistance to urination will increase. You must increase abdominal pressure vigorously to overcome the resistance to urination, so urination requires effort.".
E) Frequency of urination: It is an early signal of prostatitis. The most obvious early sign is an increase in the frequency of nocturnal urination, which gradually increases as urinary tract obstruction progresses.
F) "Discomfort in the posterior urethra and compression sensation in the perineum: Due to stimulation of the posterior urethra due to hyperplasia of the prostate, there is a sensation of stone friction in the prostate, and positive stone shadows can be identified on pelvic X-ray films.".
