Calculated prostatitis in men: what is it?
Calcular prostatitis is a complication of chronic inflammation of the prostate, which consists in the formation of stones (stones) in the prostate ducts. The peak of this pathology falls on 30-39 years. Associated with this is an increase in cases of chronic prostatitis, which develops against the background of sexually transmitted diseases.
In men from 40 to 59 years of age, the appearance of this pathology can be associated with prostate adenoma (growth of glandular tissue of the prostate), and in people over 60 years of age - the cessation of sexual function. Depending on the cause of their formation, stones are true (primary) or false (secondary). The primary ones are formed in the ducts of the gland, and the secondary ones enter the prostate from the upper urinary tract (kidneys, bladder and urethra) if the patient has urolithiasis.
Calcular prostatitis is caused by inflammation in the prostate. Violation of the emptying of the prostate occurs due to irregular or absent sexual intercourse, as well as a sedentary lifestyle. Against the background of infection, stones are formed in a person, as a result of which the secretion in the prostate stagnates.
In addition, the development of this disease leads to an abnormal backflow of a small amount of urine from the urethra into the ducts of the prostate gland during the emission of urine. Because of this, the salts in the urine crystallize, thicken, and turn into stones. The stones of the prostate are chemically similar to those of the bladder:
- oxalate (appear due to the formation of oxalic acid salts);
- phosphate (formed against the background of a violation of the synthesis of phosphoric acid);
- Urate (uric acid salts are formed).
Main symptoms and types
The main symptom of calculous prostatitis is pain. It has a dull and aching character and is located in the perineum, scrotum, over the pubic bone, sacrum and coccyx. Pain syndrome is aggravated by defecation (excretion of feces), sexual intercourse, physical activity and prolonged sitting on a hard surface, as well as long walking.
Patients complain of frequent urination or complete urinary retention. Blood impurities (hematuria) or hemospermia (the appearance of blood plasma in the semen) are found in urea. People suffering from this disease are characterized by:
- decreased libido (sexual activity);
- weak erection;
- Violations of ejaculation (discharge of seminal fluid during sexual intercourse);
- painful ejaculation.
Without therapy, patients can develop complications in the form of:
- kidney disease;
- cystitis (inflammation of the urinary tract);
- Infertility;
- Abscess;
- urinary retention
treatment
Calcareous prostatitis in men is treated with antibiotics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. In addition, vitamins are actively used in therapy to strengthen immunity, anti-inflammatory drugs, prebiotics (after taking a course of antibiotics) and other drugs. Sometimes surgery is done to remove the stones. This method is indicated when drug therapy does not give positive results for a long time.
Of the applied physiotherapeutic methods:
- magnetotherapy (exposure to a magnetic field);
- laser treatment (stone removal);
- electrophoresis (power consumption);
- EHF therapy (radiation with low frequencies).
With calculous prostatitis, prostate massage is strictly prohibited. The most effective method is crushing stones with a laser. Stones can be removed naturally in just a few sessions. Sometimes the doctor prescribes exercise therapy (physiotherapeutic exercises) in the form of gymnastics, exercises to reduce and relax the anal muscles.
