One of the most common diseases that affects many men over 35 years of age is inflammation of the prostate. It causes a lot of problems for men. Without timely treatment, prostatitis can turn into infertility. Various medications, physiotherapy procedures and devices intended for home use are used to treat prostatitis.
Prostatitis: what is it?
Doctors call prostatitis an inflammation of the prostate gland. The characteristic signs of this disease are frequent urination accompanied by pain. A man's urine contains particles of blood and pus, very often patients experience erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, and premature ejaculations are possible.
Devices for the treatment of prostatitis in a hospital environment.
Hardware treatment of prostatitis has a very positive effect on the production of enzymes necessary for the normal functioning of the reproductive system. It is a hardware treatment that improves blood circulation and also facilitates the penetration of antibacterial substances into the problem area. All devices for the treatment of prostatitis are divided into invasive and non-invasive.
When using invasive treatment methods, special precision in manipulation is required, as well as possession of treatment skills. That is why these methods are used exclusively in hospitals.
Particularly popular among doctors are transrectal devices, which act on the prostate through the posterior wall of the intestine.
This effect is quite effective, as it allows you to quickly relieve pain and negative manifestations of the disease, helps to normalize the patient's condition and prevents the development of complications. Non-invasive treatments are easier to administer but are not as effective as transrectal treatments. Non-invasive methods help to accelerate drug treatment and have a beneficial effect on blood circulation in the genital area.
We list the main non-invasive treatment hardware methods:
- Magnetic therapy: this type of treatment is based on the action of a magnetic field on the area with the inflammatory process.
- Electrical stimulation: impact on the prostate gland using microcurrents.
- Vibroacoustics is a type of prostate massage that is performed using liquid impact waves or a magnetic field.
- Laser therapy is an effect on the prostate gland using soft infrared radiation.
