Prostate massage: recommendations and contraindications

For diseases of the prostate, massage is necessary. Its purpose is to influence the nerve ending of this organ. In case of inflammation of the prostate gland, stagnation occurs. Massage of the prostate gland helps to activate the secretion of juice, which stagnates in the organs. In addition, in addition to the secret, the end product of the vital activity of various microbes that cause inflammation is often released.

Also, according to urologists, direct prostate massage helps to improve blood circulation in organs. As a result, recovery is accelerated. Thanks to the improved blood flow, the necessary medications reach the organs faster and their effectiveness in massage and treatment of prostatitis is enhanced.

Despite the fact that many doctors advise massage at home, this procedure is prohibited in the following cases:

• Acute stage of prostatitis;
• Presence of a tumor;
• Urethritis and cystitis;
• Hemorrhoids;
• Urolitase;
• Orchitis.

Prescribing the necessary medications, the doctor explains to the patient in detail how to massage the prostate gland at home.

Varieties of prostate massage

For hardware massage of the prostate gland at home, special medical devices are used. The combined effect gives the greatest effect. For example, you can combine magnetic and infrared radiation. Prices for medical devices for such a procedure depend on their model and novelty.

A correct and well-thought-out scheme in the form of a combination of such devices with the use of drugs contributes to a quick cure. The massaging apparatus must undergo research and its safety level has been proven. They are perfect for men who are not able to cope with such a massage on their own and correctly make massage movements according to the desired pattern.

Massaging with such a device is not difficult. For hydromassage, liquid is injected into the rectum. The result is increased blood flow and irritation. The solution for the hydromassage should be prescribed by the attending physician.

Hydromassage of an organ such as the prostate gland is the least effective method of treating the prostate, because during such a procedure, the effect on the parenchyma of this organ is minimal. But this method of massaging is suitable for prophylaxis in the case of chronic prostatitis.

Preparing for a prostate massage

If a man nevertheless decided to do such a procedure himself, he must find out exactly how to do it. In addition, you cannot massage an inflamed prostate at any time - there are rules for preparing for such a procedure.

Here are the main ones:

• Before a prostate massage, wash the genitals and dry them with a towel;
• Place a large towel on the bed where you will be doing this procedure;
• Be sure to stock up on medical gloves and petroleum jelly;
• This massage should not be performed if the bladder is empty, so drink some water before this procedure;
• Make sure to empty your bowels and trim your nails a few hours before this procedure.

If you suffer from constipation, be sure to do an enema before massage the prostate gland.

These are simple rules, however, they must be followed in order to properly carry out such a procedure at home.

Rules for performing such a procedure

It is not difficult to perform such a massage correctly. Anyone who massages the prostate should take into account that he will give the desired result if you make smooth movements. It is very simple to grope the prostate gland: the patient will feel a glandular formation. When performing the procedure for the first time, lubricate your finger with petroleum jelly. Then the penetration will not be painful if the massage is done taking into account the given scheme.

Here is the correct procedure for such a procedure:

• Massage the prostate in the knee-elbow position;
• Those who massage the prostate should wash their hands and wear a clean glove before performing such a procedure;
• Before performing such massages, feel the prostate with your finger;
• Before doing such a procedure, massage the gland with gentle movements;
• Start on the less sensitive side of the prostate.

Can a vibrating massager be used to massage the prostate?

But is there any point in using it? Such a device has a certain effect on the prostate. However, this method is less efficient for the following reasons:

• It is difficult to feel the prostate and determine the presence of pathologies without tactile contact;
• When using such a massager, the effect on the organ is not constant;
• Vibration often aggravates pathology.

Also, using a massager, the patient can injure the anus and rectum more severely. As a result, hemorrhoids and cracks may appear. And inept use of the massager will harm the body.

Application of magnetotherapy

Magnetotherapy is an excellent addition to any method of treating prostatitis and other diseases of the genitourinary system. This procedure is especially effective if you combine a healing magnet with the use of medicines and health treatments.

This procedure is painless. The magnetic field established by the drugs has unique properties. It is capable of activating blood circulation at the micro level and inhibits inflammation. Also, magnetotherapy accelerates the elimination of bacteria that increase inflammation of the prostate.

The healing magnet has the following healing properties:

• Improves blood composition;
• Activates and normalizes blood circulation in internal organs, including the prostate gland;
• Enhancing the body's immunity, which contributes to the effective fight against infectious diseases.

For the complex therapy of prostatitis, including magnetotherapy, effective antibiotics and folk remedies, such as propolis, are used. As a result, the desired result is quickly achieved.

Here are the main types of magnetotherapy:

• Effect of low-frequency magnetic field on the prostate;
• The essence of variable field therapy is to affect the prostate with impulses of different frequencies;
• Traveling fields are often used for magnetotherapy, with alternating magnetic waves alternating with constant ones.

In any case, do not risk your health and life and do not self-medicate without first consulting a doctor. He will show you how you can effectively treat inflammation of the prostate.
