Prostatitis does not necessarily require hospitalization, but it can be treated at home, but it cannot be said that hospitals are deceiving. If the condition is more serious, you should still go to a hospital for treatment. Here are some hospital treatment and self treatment methods that may help you in the future.
Is prostatitis massage effective? Self massage has a positive therapeutic effect, is easy to operate, and is easily accepted and mastered by patients. It is a very good auxiliary treatment method. The method is:
(1) After defecation, cleaning the anus and lower rectal segment is feasible for massage treatment. The patient is placed in a chest knee or lateral position. After touching the prostate along the anterior wall of the rectum with his index finger, the doctor gently presses the prostate from the outside up to the inside down in a regular manner. At the same time, the patient is instructed to perform an anal lifting action to discharge prostate fluid from the urethral orifice and immediately urinate.
(2) Self massage: After the patient takes a squatting position or lateral flexion position, clean the anus and lower rectal segment after defecation, press the prostate gland with their middle or index fingers in the same way as before, massage for 3-5 minutes each time, preferably with prostate fluid discharged from the urethra each time. When massaging, be sure to use gentle force. Before massaging, use soap to lubricate the fingertips to reduce discomfort. The interval between each massage treatment should be at least 3 days. If during the self massage process, prostate tenderness is evident and bladder sensation is enhanced, it is necessary to seek medical attention in a specialized clinic in a timely manner to avoid performing prostate massage in the event of an acute attack of chronic prostatitis.
