Prostatitis prevention measures: a practical aspect

Prostatitis is a complex and multifaceted disease of the prostate( see here).During the pathological process, there is a disruption of the glandular organ and its proliferation. This is a polyfactor state: the prostatitis can be inflammatory, infectious, or otherwise. If the pathology manifested, "driving the genie into a bottle" is no longer easy, if not impossible. The methods of treatment are aimed at stopping the symptoms and eliminating the adverse effects of the disease, but at any opportunity, it is worth giving the patient a slack, the prostatitis again rises in full growth.

Prostatitis, like any other disease, is easier to prevent than treat

Thus, it is easier to prevent the development of ailment, than to "disentangle" the consequences.

Prevention measures can be conditionally divided into primary and secondary. In the first case - a person has not yet become a "client" of the urologist-andrologist. In the second one, he already knew all the "delights" of the flow of prostatitis. Regardless of the stage of prevention, it is about the same activities.

Physical exercises

A frequent cause of manifestationProstatitis - hypodynamia .With prolonged sitting and without movement, stagnation of venous blood begins in the pelvic region. This condition is fraught with the development of not only the defeat of the prostate, but also varicose veins of the rectum( hemorrhoids).Thus, physical exercises are designed to solve at least two tasks at a time. The standard charging package includes simple exercises:

• Get up straight. On account of "one" as deeply as possible to sit down. On account of "two" return to the original position.
• Take a run on the spot( within 1-2 minutes).
• Walk in place, lifting your knees high.
• Borrow posture lying on the back. Do an exercise bike. Perform the characteristic movements until fatigue appears in the calves and gluteal muscles.
• Easy jogging in the fresh air can also be useful.

In some cases, the problem is more narrowly focused. Prostatitis can begin as a result of the weakness of the muscles of the organ itself. Therefore do not forget about exercise Kegel in its various variations:

• Get up straight. Tighten the muscles surrounding the prostate gland. In order to understand how to do the exercise correctly, you should stop urinating two or three times in the midst of the process. Feeling to remember. Keep muscles tight for 3-5 seconds.
• Strain and relax the same group of muscles( alternately in different tempos).

From the point of view of practical medicine, performing light exercises and preventing hypodynamia is simply necessary. Normalized contractility of the prostate, blood circulation in the pelvic region, stabilizes the concentration of testosterone in the blood. But peretruzhdeniya should be avoided: hyperdynamia is no better than hypodynamia. Until exhausting exhausting themselves in gyms, a man risks minimizing the concentration of testosterone.

Prophylaxis with drugs and biologically active additives

Immediately it is worth mentioning. For prevention, the traditional medicines used by doctors for the treatment of the disease are not categorically appropriate. Prevention and treatment should be demarcated. This is a fairly controversial means, which, however, are widely represented on the shelves of pharmacies. The most popular titles:

• The strength of the prostate .Complex preparation containing extracts of herbs and several trace elements. Thanks to the natural composition of the drug is really able to have a beneficial effect on the prostate gland. However, in the case of an actively ongoing process, the drug is not applicable: it is impossible to stimulate the diseased organ, in the first place it is necessary to stop inflammation and pain.
• Prostalamine .Quite a controversial drug. The instruction does not give an exhaustive list of active substances, therefore it is impossible to evaluate the pharmacological action to the end. However, if you believe the reviews, patients positively characterize the drug. At least, there is no harm. To take Prostalamin or not - the patient decides at his own discretion taking into account the opinion of the treating specialist.
• Prostate Forte .A natural herbal preparation( with minor reservations) that promotes the regeneration of the prostate and the normalization of its functions.

You should never use antibiotics and antiviral drugs on your own without consulting a specialist. This is a big risk. The maximum that a man can do on his own is to take biologically active supplements. They have a fortifying effect. It is also permissible to use vitamin-mineral complexes.
