problem The causes of prostatitis in young men are associated with various pathological factors. The pathology has unpleasant symptoms and is accompanied by various disorders in the genitourinary system. The disease is divided into groups. For this reason, it is not recommended to conduct therapy alone. Diagnosis and treatment is best entrusted to a specialist.
Characteristics of the disease
The disease affects the shape and function of the prostate gland. Iron is needed for a man to produce sperm and testosterone. The secret of seminal fluid plays an important role in fertilization. If its viscosity or volume changes, the sperm composition is disrupted. A man loses the ability to conceive.
The prostate gland consists of three lobes. The two extreme lobes are located symmetrically on the sides of the urinary tract. At the rear of the channel is the average proportion. She falls on the sphincter of the bladder. The sphincter is necessary for closing the bladder from getting the seminal fluid. The shape of the prostate resembles a walnut. In diameter, a healthy organ does not exceed 5 cm.
If any pathology develops in the organ, the patient develops prostatitis. Prostatitis has a different character and depends on various causes.
Types of the disease
Prostatitis in men has different types. It is divided into three main forms:
- Acute;
- Chronic;
- Mixed.
The acute form is characterized by symptoms that appear quickly. Symptoms are acute, in many cases the disease is accompanied by fever. When chronic form is difficult to identify the cause of inflammation. Often the disease is detected on a preventive medical examination. Treatment of this form is long and complex. Mixed prostatitis is characterized by a periodic manifestation of the disease.
Also the prostatitis is divided into bacterial and non-bacterial. In bacterial prostatitis, the cause of the lesion of the prostate gland is a pathogenic microorganism. The microorganism affects healthy tissue cells. Tissues die, inflammation develops. With bacterial prostatitis, the dead bacteria and the products of their vital activity are identified in the crop.
The non-bacterial form of prostatitis develops under the influence of external causes. This causes inflammation of the tissues and an increase in the prostate gland. Non-bacterial prostatitis treatment lends itself slowly.
Pathogenic factors that cause inflammation of the body
Inflammation of the prostate gland in young men can occur for various reasons. These include pathological factors such as:
- Prolonged body arrangement in a sitting posture;
-
Sedentary lifestyle; - Inflammatory diseases of the genitourinary system;
- Sharp temperature changes;
- Hormonal disorders;
- Trauma of the coccygeal zone;
- Malnutrition, leading to obesity;
- Bad habits.
Many modern young men lead a sedentary lifestyle. With a long stay in this position, there is a disruption of the cell nutrition. Blood supplies an insufficient amount of oxygen to the organs. The patient stagnates. Against the background of stagnation inflammation of the prostatic gland develops. The organ increases and squeezes the adjacent tissues. There are signs of prostatitis.
Inflammatory diseases of the genitourinary system also lead to the development of pathology. Young men often have bacterial prostatitis. This is due to uncontrolled sexual activity. Bacteria are transmitted through the genital tract. If you get into the urethral canal, the microorganism causes inflammation, which increases with the progress of the bacterium. Such prostatitis proceeds in acute form and entails complication.
The cause of inflammation in young men can be a sharp temperature drop. Severe supercooling or overheating leads to a violation of blood circulation and the development of a pathological process. Against the background of hypothermia, an acute form of the disease is revealed, overheating is accompanied by chronic prostatitis.
One of the causes of prostatitis is a hormonal disorder. The male's prostate gland produces a special hormone. Testosterone has a positive effect on the functioning of the reproductive system. If the level of matter in the patient's blood decreases, the secretion of secretion of the seminal fluid deteriorates. Chronic prostatitis forms.
A rare cause of pathology is the trauma of the coccygeal zone. Against the background of a severe bruise or stroke, squeezing of the prostate tissue may occur. Compressed tissue does not allow the body to function normally. Appearance of tissue atrophy. The process is accompanied by inflammation.
Modern young men prefer fried foods or fast food. This has a pathological effect on the weight of the patient. With a large body weight, the load on the pelvic organs increases. They can move or squeeze. In this case, such patients experience changes in the hormonal system, vascular nutrition is disturbed. All these reasons in the compartment have a devastating effect on the health of men.
Special influence must be given to bad habits. Prostatitis can develop against a background of alcohol abuse or prolonged and frequent smoking. Alcoholic beverages affect the quality characteristics of semen. The sperm becomes thicker, the spermatozoa die. The process entails a stagnant secretion in the prostate gland. This provokes the appearance of prostatitis.
Symptoms of the disease
Young men develop various signs of prostatitis. Symptoms of pathology are such signs as:
-
Violation of excretion of urine; - Reduction of erectile function;
- Irritability and lack of sleep;
- Soreness when urinating.
The main symptom of prostatitis is impaired urinary excretion. The patient has drip or partial incontinence. After visiting the toilet room, there is a urge to urinate. The urinary process is accompanied by soreness and burning. Some men complain of shooting pain in the intestine.
Due to frequent visits to the toilet, young men do not get enough sleep. Lack of availability leads to a malfunction. Irritability appears.
Against the background of prostatitis, there is often a decrease in erectile function and sexual weakness. Such phenomena are manifested due to a decrease in the volume of sperm, increased pressure on the vas deferens and severe inflammation.
Diagnosis of the
problem Diagnosis of the pathology is carried out by various methods. It is necessary to clearly establish the causes of inflammation. For the study, methods such as:
- are used;
- Assays;
- Collection of anamnesis of the patient.
Initially, the doctor listens to all complaints of the patient. After that, he asks additional questions to clarify the alleged diagnosis. Then the patient goes to the hardware study. Ultrasound examination allows you to determine the shape and volume of the prostate gland. If there are additional changes in the organ, they can also be seen in the image.
After the performed procedures, the patient must pass urine and blood for analysis. In the urine of a young man, an increase in protein compounds is observed. With a bacterial form of prostatitis, a pathogenic bacterium can be detected. Blood counts the number of leukocytes and the rate of erythrocyte sedimentation. After a full investigation, an accurate diagnosis is established.
Methods of treatment
Therapy of prostatitis depends on the reasons that caused it. To eliminate the disease, methods such as: medicamentous, apparatus, prostate massage are used. The main impact is carried out with the help of different groups of medicines. The main effect on inflammation has antibiotic drugs and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory substances. They eliminate the cause and symptom of pathology.
After relieving the exacerbation it is recommended to undergo a course of hardware treatment or massage of the prostate gland. The hardware effect is carried out by magnets. Magnetic heat removes the remnants of inflammation and normalizes the trophic nutrition of the organ.
If you find any unpleasant symptoms that indicate a pathology, you must immediately visit a specialist. Preventive examination should be carried out at least once a year.
