Lower abdomen hurts after prostate massage

What does the appearance of pain after prostate massage mean

Prostate massage is used as one of the methods of non-drug treatment of prostatitis. The procedure allows you to cope with the symptoms of the disease, restore erectile function, and prevent infertility. Massage can be performed using a bougie, which is inserted through the urethra, or rectally. In the first case, the procedure lasts up to 1.5 minutes, in the second - up to 2.

After a massage performed using the rectal technique, the patient experiences discomfort for some time. The sensations may be unpleasant, but not painful. The pain that appeared during the procedure or after its completion warns of a deterioration in the condition of the man. He is obliged to immediately notify his attending physician and completely refuse massage until the results of the ultrasound and laboratory examination are received. Often the alarm turns out to be false, but no one intends to risk the prostate gland.

Pain during massage

Pain during the procedure can be the result of several factors at once:

What causes tightness during the procedure

• Fear. Psychological tightness does not allow a man to relax, which prevents the specialist from conducting a massage in accordance with all the rules. At the first session, the medical worker usually confines himself to lightly stroking the gland. But the patient's excessive tension can make the doctor's movements sharper than he plans. Usually, already in the second session, the problem disappears on its own.
• Accepting the wrong posture for massage. This cause is most often recorded in those men who prefer to carry out the procedure on their own, at home for preventive purposes. Damage to the walls of the rectum causes pain.
• Unprofessional conduct of the procedure. An inexperienced doctor can massage the prostate with excessive pressure, which leads to damage to its tissues, the appearance of hematomas. It is recommended to refuse the services of such a specialist.

Prostate massage necessarily ends with the release of the secretion of the gland. In chronic prostatitis, a certain soreness may be felt during the procedure, which is associated with the state of the organ itself. If the color of the secreted liquid is whitish, then the massage is carried out correctly. After 2-3 sessions, all unpleasant symptoms will disappear.

Pain after the procedure

When the lower abdomen hurts after a Prostate massage, a man should listen more carefully to the symptoms. Among the reasons for this condition may be an enlarged prostate. Careless massaging leads to damage to the tissues of the gland. Hematomas, ruptures appear on them. It is extremely difficult to determine the changes due to the location of the organ. But an attempt to continue treatment in the chosen way threatens with a complete disruption of the entire gland system. In severe cases, abscesses and infertility develop.

The presence of purulent foci on the surface of the prostate with careless massage turns into a threat of the spread of infection throughout the body. Excessive pressure, incorrect technique, and even carrying out the procedure while ignoring contraindications leads to infection of new areas. Together with the blood, the pathogen is able to penetrate to any organ, threatening the life of the patient. The appearance of pain in the lower abdomen after prostate massage requires the rejection of the procedure and a thorough examination. Acute pain warns of the need for immediate medical intervention.

Stones in the gland are considered a contraindication to massage. But in some cases (an inexperienced doctor, a lack of laboratory tests), the procedure is still prescribed. The movement of stones damages the tissues of the prostate, the walls of the rectum, causing pain. High blood pressure is also dangerous. Even the right technique can cause damage to the organ, which is difficult to diagnose.

A man should refuse such therapy and undergo an examination if the secretion is accompanied by pain, there is an acute pain in the lower abdomen, or the color of the excreted secret has turned yellow.

The nature of pain that occurs after massaging the prostate

Prostate massage is a procedure to prevent or cure some serious diseases in men. Subject to the recommended technique of its implementation, pain does not occur. Feeling pain and especially acute requires immediate withdrawal from therapy. To avoid complications, it is recommended that a man entrust massage only to an experienced specialist.

Types and purpose of the procedure

Massage is a urological procedure that should only be carried out by a specialist. For its implementation, it is necessary not only to know the location and structure of the prostate, but also to understand their symptoms. The duration of one procedure takes approximately three minutes.

In medicine, there are two types of massage:

The essence of the procedure is to eliminate congestion in the prostate and improve blood circulation. What is the prostate gland? This is a male organ that secretes a special secret into the urethra throughout the life of a man. As a result of not removing the secret from the urethra, an inflammatory process occurs, i.e. prostatitis.

The causes of stagnation can be various factors:

It is these factors that become the primary cause of the appearance of pathological microorganisms in the gland, which cause the inflammatory process.

In case of timely diagnosis of prostatitis, massage will have only a therapeutic effect. However, even this procedure has its pros and cons.

Procedure value

Not everyone understands the meaning and meaning of the procedure. Massage has a complex effect on the gland:

Diagnostic value

Massage is closely related to palpation. It is the finger that is the tool that not only massages, but also allows the doctor to examine the organ:

What does a non-professional procedure lead to

In most cases, massage is prescribed as a preventive measure for the treatment of many prostate diseases. The procedure should be carried out professionally, only by a qualified doctor, as incorrect actions can harm the patient.

Unprofessional massage can cause severe discomfort to a man, which as a result will serve as the strongest source of threat to life and health. At best, the lower abdomen will hurt after the massage.

For example, in the case of bacterial prostatitis, the procedure should be carried out with extreme caution, since any incorrect movements can provoke infection. In the presence of stones, illiterate massage can cause a violation of the integrity of the tissues of the colon.

In addition, high pressure can damage parts of the urethra. Worst of all, in most cases, it is not possible to diagnose such damage, which in the future can lead to dysfunction of the entire structure of the urethra.

Pain after massage

The pain that occurs in the prostate area after prostate massage may differ in location, nature and intensity. The most common pain sensations occur when urinating in the form of cramps, which leads to irritation of the urethra and burning in the penis, ejaculation after and before sexual intercourse.

The pain syndrome can be located both in one specific place, and spread throughout the organ. It is at this point that it is quite difficult to determine the focus. Most often, the perineum, pubic region, lower back, sacrum, lower abdomen, scrotum, anus are affected.

Pain syndrome can occur not only through the fault of an unprofessional doctor, but also through the fault of the patient himself. Many men are embarrassed by doctors, and even more so by a urologist. Therefore, the pain syndrome may be due to psychological tightness, as a result of which spasms appear in the gland. During the procedure, it is necessary to relax not only the gluteal muscles, but also the abs and lower back.

As a rule, the symptoms subside before the next session. In this case, the specialist uses a different treatment tactic and prescribes a course of phytotherapy and uroantiseptics.

Pay attention!

The technique of the procedure implies the release of the secret of the prostate gland. It is on the secret that you should pay special attention. In the case of a whitish color, the massage goes in the right direction.

After the procedure, you should be afraid:

Regular prostate massage may not be an effective treatment in all cases. It is important to remember such contraindications as hemorrhoids, adenoma, oncology, thrombosis, proctitis, acute and chronic prostatitis.
