Prostate inflammation occurs in different forms and reaches different stages. Stone prostatitis is a disease characterized by the formation of stones in the prostate and subsequent harmful consequences.
What disease is this?
Stone prostatitis is a fairly rare prostate disease. It develops against the background of chronic inflammation and other diseases. Accompanied by decreased vision, difficulty urinating, pain in the perineum and lower abdomen.
There are two types of diseases:
- Real-The stone is formed directly in the prostate and is formed by calcium and phosphate;
- Error-The mass enters the prostate from other organs and is obtained from urea salt.
The size and number of entities are different. Prostate stones are also divided into 2 types:
- Endogenous-As a complication of chronic prostatitis, it increases the possibility of stagnation process;
- Exogenous-Occurs due to untreated genitourinary diseases, which usually hinder urine excretion.
The main danger of chronic calculous prostatitis is the rapid deterioration of the person's overall health, the development of complications and the appearance of new inflammation in other systems and organs.
Reason
The causes of stones in the prostate are as follows: stagnation of prostate secretions and urine entering the organs.
The first appearance is:
- Acute or chronic prostatitis;
- Adenoma;
- Cancer.
Abnormalities such as urine entering the prostate duct are caused by:
- Normal inflammation of the urinary system;
- Genital injuries;
- Surgery;
- Stones in the bladder and kidneys;
- Bladder catheterization.
The susceptibility to stone disease also depends on the following prerequisites:
- Ignore routine sanitation procedures;
- Bad habits;
- Private life, rare sexual contact;
- Decreased immune system function;
- Keep under pressure;
- The influence of negative environmental factors;
- Sedentary lifestyle;
- Abuse of unhealthy food;
- Hormonal failure;
- Exposure to chronic constipation.
Diagnosis: Symptoms and signs in men
The signs of calculous prostatitis are:
- Pain in the groin and lower abdomen, radiating to the lower back, pelvic area, and scrotum;
- Disorders of urinary excretion, accompanied by pain syndromes, frequent urging and constant bladder fullness;
- There are bloody impurities in semen or urine;
- Emptying the bladder or bowel, intercourse, pain after physical activity;
- Erectile dysfunction.
Without proper treatment, other symptoms will appear after 1-2 months:
- Irritable;
- Fast and easy to fatigue;
- Sleep disorders;
- General weakness;
- severe headache;
- Temperature rise.
To determine stone prostatitis, you need to see a doctor. After the initial examination and recall records, a urologist was assigned:
- Blood and urine tests, including flora culture;
- Monitor urinary excretion (urinary flow method);
- Research on prostate secretion;
- Prostate specific antigen detection;
- Ultrasonic diagnosis of pelvic organs and prostate;
- Tested by Meares.
How to treat calculous prostatitis, what should I do?
A comprehensive approach is needed to deal with stones. The treatment of stone prostatitis includes taking medicine and folk remedies. Lasers and some physical therapy techniques are also very effective in affecting the prostate.
Preparation
The first choice for treatment of calculous prostatitis is antibiotics. Prescribe specific drugs or injections based on test results.
The following categories of antibacterial drugs are most commonly recommended:
- Penicillin;
- Fluoroquinolones are considered the most effective. When using, must exclude prostate tuberculosis.
- Tetracycline-cause side effects;
- Cephalosporin-used when intramuscular injection is required.
In addition, bioactive additives are included in the pathological treatment of stones, which have a complex effect on prostate tissue, activate blood flow, enhance cell regeneration, prevent impotence and prevent complications.
The treatment plan also includes:
- painkillers;
- Drugs that inhibit inflammation and reduce swelling;
- Vitamin complex;
- Preparations for improving blood circulation;
- Drugs that boost the immune system.
Can I get a massage for calculus prostatitis?
Many forms of prostatitis can be effectively treated by directly massaging the glands, but this effect can be completely eliminated in the form of stones. Treatment can only be taken after the stone has been removed (then, treatment can only be carried out as prescribed by the doctor).
Important note:Some urologists pointed out in their work that there is a direct connection between prostate function and normal spine activity. Therefore, chiropractic and special effects on biological points can be provided as additional treatments.
During this process, the following parts of the body are pinched:
- The outflow of venous blood from the foot-pelvic organs is activated, and the soreness is reduced;
- Pelvis-promote bowel and urination process;
- Buttocks-reduce sperm congestion;
- The waist-prostate function is stable.
Folk remedies for calculous prostatitis: the most effective
Folk remedies can also help relieve stone prostatitis and speed up recovery.
The following are considered very effective for stones:

- Parsley soup. Put 30 grams of plant seeds into the pot. Pour a cup of boiling water and keep the heat low for a quarter of an hour. Let it cool down. Take up to 6 teaspoons a day;
- Healing party.Mix equal parts of sage, nettle, chamomile, calf, bearberry and plantain. Stir and take 30 grams, pour the mixture into 0. 5 liters of boiling water and let stand for 2 hours. Drink 10ml 3 times a day;

Laser
Laser therapy is a relatively new technology for the treatment of chronic stone prostatitis. This technique is most widely used in clinics in Israel. The method involves introducing an instrument called a microprobe fiber into the human body. Due to the fineness of the beam, the stones will be destroyed point by point, and healthy tissue will not be affected.
Crush the feces into smaller parts and gradually excrete them from the body together with urine in the form of sand. The doctor insisted that this method must be combined with medication.
The duration of a session is usually between 10 and 15 minutes. In order to completely remove stones on the prostate, six to ten examinations are required, depending on the severity of the pathology.
Other technologies
Suitable for stone prostatitis and physical therapy procedures. Shockwave therapy (SWT) is a technique that allows you to effectively crush stones.
The mechanism of shock wave therapy lies in the effect of sound pulses that cannot be heard on the prostate. Use special equipment to recreate them. Waves can easily pass through healthy tissues and affect pathological sealing.
The following operations can also be used for treatment:
- Ultrasound-reduce pain and inhibit inflammation;
- Magnetic therapy-eliminate edema and improve blood flow;
- Low-frequency current therapy-has analgesic effect, increases the tone of the glands, and normalizes the blood microcirculation;
- Hydrogen sulfide bath-suitable for severe circulatory system diseases;
- Use silt and peat mud-to stimulate tissue healing.
If all other methods fail, assign an action. During this process, part of the prostate is removed along with the stones. Refers to the basic method.
Prevention techniques
You can reduce the risk of calculous prostatitis by following the simple guidelines provided by your urologist:
- Regular sex life;
- Use barrier contraceptives (if you are not sure about your partner's health);
- Avoid prolonged exposure to the body.
- Do exercises several times a day and go to the gym several times a week.
- Get rid of bad habits (if any);
