Inflammation of the prostate gland is a serious disease that can lead to serious consequences if it is not treated.The prostate is located under the bladder.
When it is inflamed, it increases significantly in size, blocking the neck of the bladder and interfering with the outflow of urine.Therefore, with the first symptoms and manifestations, it is necessary to immediately contact a specialist in order to identify and begin treatment of prostatitis.

The main symptoms: how is prostatitis manifested?
It was previously believed that this is a disease of adults and elderly men, but in modern conditions of life (ecology, quality of food, fashion, a negligent attitude of youth to their health, constant movement by car, etc.), inflammation of the prostate gland is significantly “younger”.
The incidence of young people under the age of 18 is 5%, aged 18 to 30 years - 45%, from 30 to 50 years - 20%, more than 50 years - 30%.This suggests that it is necessary to follow your male health and listen to the symptoms from a young age.
There are several types of prostatitis in the form of manifestation (chronic, acute) and by the type of inflammation (bacterial, stagnant, purulent, infectious, calculous).Symptoms of the disease can be different, depending on the type of inflammation of the prostate gland in men.
Symptoms of acute prostatitis:
- Poor well -being (weakness, chills, fever).A person can start throwing either in heat or cold.General symptoms resemble the manifestation of SARS or influenza;
- a sharp increase in body temperature to the subfubbrille mark (37.5-38 degrees) and higher;

Pain syndrome for inflammation of the prostate gland
Almost always, with inflammation of the prostate gland, a man can find out about the causes of the pain syndrome by its character.Characteristic pulling, aching or acute pains appear in the crotch and groin.In acute form or with relapse of the chronic form of pain, pain is characterized as acute, sharp, strong aching, cutting and pulling.In the chronic form of the disease, pain is periodic, wave -like.Also, the pain syndrome can be weak, but constant.The inflamed prostate gland presses on the urethra, the neck of the bladder and its ureters.It is on these channels that the urine comes out of the bladder, from which pain can appear during urination.Also, pain during urination can be a sign of infections of the bladder or genitourinary system (sexually transmitted diseases).
Accompanying pains can have a completely different cause of occurrence.Just as the presence of several pains accompanying prostatitis may not be at all inflammation of the prostate gland, but by a set from other diseases.
Other causes of accompanying pain:
- abdominal pain is a symptom of many other diseases.A striking example is appendicitis, acute poisoning, intestinal infection or Interfaith.
- The lower back can hurt due to hernia, osteochondrosis, pinching of nerve endings, osteoporosis, scattered sclerosis and other diseases of the spine.
- Pain in the anus can occur due to hemorrhoids, cracks, bruises, a long sitting on an uncomfortable solid surface and various neoplasms (benign or malignant).
- The pain syndrome of the sacral spine is more serious.Most often these are problems with bones, vertebrae and discs (osteochondrosis, osteoporosis, displacement, pinching, etc.).
Sometimes the pain in the sacrum means problems with other internal organs (kidneys, intestines, bladder and ureters), gynecological diseases, thrombophlebitis, inflammation of the pelvic organs.
- Soreness of the legs can mean a manifestation of flat feet, thrombophlebitis, atherosclerosis, varicose, arthritis, osteoporosis, inflammation of the sciatic nerve and even diabetes.Pain in the legs can have many different reasons.
The most common is the fatigue of the legs and muscles from prolonged physical activity.
Which specialist is engaged in the treatment of the disease?
In the patient, only a qualified doctor is diagnosed in the patient, an urologist.He collects an anamnesis and examines the patient.Then he directs the man for tests (PSA-antigen-protein to detect prostatitis) and an ultrasound of the pelvic organs.
Also, the patient without fail passes general blood and urine tests.Based on the results of all analyzes, the urologist can accurately determine the diagnosis and form of inflammation of the prostate gland.Only after these procedures can the doctor prescribe an individual course of treatment, including drugs, antibiotics and other drugs that usually take houses.
A man in 95% of cases knows exactly what diagnosis the urologist will make him, because pain with inflammation of the prostate is very specific.It is necessary to constantly listen to your body, to monitor all the changes that occur with the body.This is the only way a man can maintain his male health for many years.The neglected prostatitis threatens not only a disorder of urination, but also with problems with libido, ejaculation, an erection, which ultimately can lead to infertility.
