In recent years, attitudes toward the treatment of prostate adenoma and prostatitis have changed significantly. Such a diagnosis is no longer a vague indication for surgical intervention; the drugs proved to be quite effective. Of course, this significantly prolongs the recovery process, but patients should not go through a long recovery period after surgery. The functionality of the prostate gland is regulated with the help of tablets. Such a treatment is designed to help a man cope with the aggravating symptoms as much as possible.
As a rule, medicines perfectly cure the initial stage of prostate adenoma and alleviate complications in the later stages. This is explained by the fact that drug methods can slow down or completely stop the process of organ tissue hyperplasia.
Medication treatment of prostate adenoma is not mandatory, so every patient has the right to refuse it by choosing an operation. Patients are often motivated by the fact that such drugs have many side effects.
If drug treatment is refused, the following complications are likely to develop:
- disease progression as well as worsening of already manifested symptoms;
- reduction of the quality of vital signs;
- an increase in the need for surgery;
- Acute signs of urinary retention.
Modern studies have shown that drugs for treating prostate adenoma and prostatitis have become softer on the overall body and harmful to the focus of inflammation. Now surgery is used only as a last resort, when there are pathological changes in the organ and considerable difficulties in the process of urination. Also, surgery cannot be avoided if there is a kidney violation.
Indications for drug treatment
Medications to eliminate the symptoms of adenoma and prostatitis are chosen in cases when:
- hyperplasia develops again after a planned operation;
- the age of the patient does not allow surgical intervention;
- a man voluntarily writes a refusal from surgery.
Along with this, there are cases when drug treatment is categorically contraindicated, as it can not provide immediate help in case of emergency.
Medications for medication
With an increase in the symptoms of prostate adenoma and prostatitis, a range of medications are prescribed that can alleviate a man's condition. Most effective in cases with moderate disease. All drugs for the treatment of prostate can be combined into two main groups:
- alpha blockers, which have a relaxing effect on prostate muscles;
- inhibitors reduce the volume of the prostate and slow down or completely stop its further growth.
Also in modern medicine is important combination therapy, which is used in cases of significant increase in prostate volume. The combination of drugs avoids surgery. The only drawback of this treatment is the appearance of side effects from two types of drug immediately. Medications for treating the prostate gland can lower blood pressure, so such medications are not suitable for patients with hypotension.
Tamusolozine-based drugs are effective drugs for treating prostatitis and prostate adenoma. They bring rapid relief, relieve the first symptoms and help to cope with the root cause of the disease. Also, these drugs show a minimal number of side effects.
Avoidance of surgery is achieved in the case of taking drugs based on 5 alpha reductase inhibitors.
Antibiotic therapy
Antibiotics for adenoma are used only if an acute bacterial infection is attached to it. Antibiotics also help to get rid of fever, chills and fever. The general condition is improving. Inflammation of the prostate perfectly relieves fluoroquinolones.
After antibiotics, a course of antifungal agents is often prescribed. This is due to the fact that antibacterial drugs violate the microflora of the body, provoking the reproduction of fungi.
Essential oils
Often, patients try to heal themselves from prostatitis and adenoma, without resorting to medical and surgical methods. Of course, there are folk remedies that can help in this situation. It is worth considering the most effective and most used of them. Essential oils and, in particular, fir oil help relieve the inflammatory process and remove the main symptoms of the disease.
To prepare a folk remedy, sea buckthorn oil and fir are mixed in equal proportions and moistened with a gauze swab. It is very important not to overdo it with oil. In total, there should be no more than 10 points per session. The tampon is inserted into the anus and is not removed until the next act of defecation. You can also order the production of candles with fir oil in pharmacies. The duration of treatment is approximately 25-30 days.
Fir oil is able to kill bacteria, warm the area of an enlarged organ and act as an excellent pain reliever.
Cocoa butter-based candles are widely used, where fir oil is added in a volume of 10 drops. The drug is also injected into the rectum at night. It relieves pain, inflammation and reduces the size of the prostate. Sexual functions are restored, the general condition of the body is improved. This method has been tested repeatedly and is therefore considered scientifically proven.
In traditional medicine, prostate massage is used with the addition of fir oil. Of course, this procedure is performed only by a qualified doctor. A side effect in the form of a burning sensation is possible. In this case, it is better to refuse such treatment and look for an alternative.
In the fight against prostate adenoma and prostatitis, there are many ways, the main thing is to decide to undergo an examination and start treatment. There is nothing to worry about here, as it is better to use folk remedies and remedies than to spend recovery after surgery.
