What signs indicate prostatitis

Doctors say that a third of the male population on the planet suffers from prostatitis. Prostatitis is an inflammatory process of the prostate gland. Prostatitis occurs due to the possible penetration of harmful microorganisms to the tissues of the male gland.

The pathological process can also be caused by:

• hypothermia;
• injury;
• unhealthy lifestyle;
• sedentary work;
• alcohol addiction;
• promiscuous sex life.

The most serious complication of prostate inflammation is the possibility of the pathological process passing into a chronic stage, which is very difficult to treat. How to recognize prostatitis in what the disease is expressed?

What are the reasons for prostatitis

Prostatitis can manifest itself in some manifestations:

• Prostatitis manifests itself as impaired plasma circulation, due to which the prostate gland enlarges. Circulatory disorders occur due to a sedentary lifestyle.
• Prostatitis as a manifestation caused by excess body weight.
• The penetration of bacteria, viruses and infections after a sore throat, flu, tuberculosis, urethritis, gonorrhea and other diseases.
• When infection penetrates through plasma, lymph, during sexual activity with unprotected intercourse.
• Injury to organs located in the small pelvis is manifested by impaired blood circulation, which contributes to provoking prostatitis.
• The disease often manifests itself due to regular hypothermia or low physical activity, with chronic pathologies of the urinary and genital area, hormonal imbalance, unregulated sexual activity.

If a man has a hectic sex life, then he may have the onset of nervous and physical exhaustion, failure of the endocrine system with the production of hormones, which leads to sexual dysfunction. Interruption of intercourse also negatively affects men's health.

Sedentary life

When a man has a sedentary lifestyle, this is reflected in the work of the endocrine system. At the same time, there is a deteriorated blood supply in the organs located in the small pelvis, which provokes stagnation with oxygen starvation in the tissues of the prostate gland.

All these pathological phenomena predispose to the development of pathogenic microflora with reproduction. Infection is the first enemy of men's health, since it is it that becomes the root cause for the onset of the inflammatory process in the prostate gland.

Inflammatory process in the rectum

Inflammation in the rectal area or in the urine channel, causing prostatitis secondary infection of the prostate, ascending type. This phenomenon is caused by the rise of microbes from the urethral canal outside or along the descending pathways to the prostate from infected urine.

Other emerging factors that provoke prostatitis

Other factors include constipation, especially of a chronic nature. With persistent disturbed stool, inflammation of the prostate gland may occur.

Prostatitis can occur due to a weakened immune system, emotional stress, bad habits, malnutrition, physical fatigue. A weakened immune system predisposes a man's body to vulnerability to infectious pathogens, including those that cause inflammation in the prostate.

A urological infection that occurs due to a venereal disease (urethritis, gonorrhea) also causes an outbreak of prostatitis. The causes of this pathology include tonsillitis, bronchitis, caries and other diseases.

By what signs is prostatitis recognized

Among the manifested signs of prostatitis, there is an increased temperature, accompanied by increased urine output with cuts and a sluggish pressure of the jet. Men feel a burning sensation in the perineum, urethral canal, rectum during bowel movements. If the inflammatory process proceeds with purulent discharge, this indicates a spontaneous opening of the abscess, after which the pus is rejected through the urethra or through the rectum.

Signs of a chronic course of prostatitis include burning in the urethral canal, perineum, purulent discharge after the process of defecation or outflow of urine. Men feel fatigue and irritability.

Obstructed outflow of urine, of course, is very dangerous and requires the urgent appointment of an effective therapy regimen.

If a man has indirect symptoms of the development of a pathological process such as a complete or partial decrease in sexual desire, a quick eruption of seminal fluid with a painful prolonged erection.These manifestations characterize the process of inflammation in the prostate, which, in a simple form, respond well to treatment.

With visible manifestations that are visible even without medical diagnosis, it is possible to note the discharge of a transparent or purulent consistency from the urethral canal, this is especially visible during the morning emptying of urea. White flakes and threadlike elements may also be visible in the urine.

Manifestations of prostatitis

In the acute form of the disease, certain signs are noted:

• general weakening of the body with malaise;
• frequent fever;
• headaches;
• discomfort with painful syndrome in the area of the perineum, groin, aggravated during the emptying of urea or during bowel movements;
• increased urine urine production;
• incomplete emptying of urea;
• increased irritability, nervous overexcitement;
• acute urinary retention.

In the chronic form of prostatitis, symptoms may not appear, and the disease proceeds at a slower pace. Chronic prostatitis has a blurred picture, sometimes with mild symptoms. Men rarely pay attention to mild discomfort, which can result in serious complications for the patient. The most common manifestations of delayed treatment are erectile dysfunction and psychological disorders. Usually, patients associate this with fatigue, lack of adequate rest, they do not want to think that such manifestations can be a signal of the onset of a disease. For the timely detection of the pathological process, it is necessary to carry out preventive, routine examinations by a urologist.

In the chronic form of the disease, the symptoms pass quickly and are mild. The pains are not severe, there is not strong discomfort in the perineum and groin area. Men do not immediately pay attention to the reduction in the duration of sexual intercourse, in principle, as well as to its longer duration. With prostatitis, the brightness of feelings from sexual intercourse is also disturbed.

In the morning, patients notice slight discharge, in the form of whitish flakes

The occurrence of an inflammatory process in the prostate gland leads to a narrowing of the lumen in the urethra. Because of this, failures begin with an outflow of urine. Men should always pay attention to changes in the process of urination. Urine can change in consistency (becomes cloudy), the pressure of the jet becomes weak. In some patients, impaired urine emission is noted - in the form of drip rejection or a difficult onset of outflow. Sometimes, at the end of the process, patients feel difficult.

With prostatitis in men at an older age, there may be incomplete emptying of urea or urine leakage that is not controlled. Such unpleasant manifestations infuriate patients. The inflammation negatively affects the nerve endings, which leads to frequent urination. This is especially true at night. Emptying of urea occurs in small doses.

Any of the symptoms presented above indicates the development of inflammatory processes in the urinary or reproductive system, which needs to be paid attention to and contact a qualified specialist. Only a specialized doctor can accurately diagnose the disease and prescribe adequate treatment. It is impossible to prolong the disease, it can cause serious complications up to infertility, and sometimes to adenoma or prostate cancer.

An inflamed prostate gland provokes the onset of oppression of sexual desire. Against the background of untreated prostatitis, there is a secondary infection of the urinary tract. Against this background, the development of renal, chronic failure, or stone pathology in the ureter can occur. This is due to the development of acute urinary retention. Retention of urine in the urine occurs due to impaired blood flow or the penetration of bacteria.

Men's health must be monitored both at a young and old age. This is the only way to avoid irreversible pathological processes.
