Chronic prostatitis is not a simple infectious diseases, but an abnormal level of prostate immune function, prostate antibacterial factors, superoxide dismutase and oxygen free radicals in the prostate caused by infection. The therapeutic advantage of traditional Chinese medicine is to increase the concentration of drugs in the prostate to kill pathogens, and at the same time, it can also increase the concentration of zinc ions in the prostate, increase the level of superoxide dismutase and restore the immunoglobulin in the prostate to normal. This is the conclusion of a project awarded the provincial government science and technology progress award by associate professor Bi Huanzhou of a hospital.

According to statistics, chronic prostatitis accounts for about 25% of the adult male patients in the urology outpatient department, and most of them are young adults aged 20-40. The unique anatomical structure of the prostate and the pathological characteristics of chronic prostatitis make its treatment extremely difficult. For example, if the prostate tube enters the urethra at right angles or diagonally, it is not conducive to gland drainage, but also conducive to urethral bacteria entering the gland; The infection focus is often multiple, with deep location and poor drainage. If there is abscess formation or scar tissue surrounding, local blood circulation will be affected; This disease is often accompanied by chronic urethritis and seminal vesiculitis; Commonly used antibacterial drugs are not easy to enter the prostate in the case of inflammation, and common antibacterial treatment methods are difficult to work.
Associate professor Bi Huanzhou found in clinical practice that chronic prostatitis is often associated with iritis, endocarditis and arthritis. This shows that the occurrence of its complications is not the pathogen metastasis of the primary infection focus, but may be related to the immune response. He chose anti-rheumatic Chinese medicine to treat chronic prostatitis, and the effect was particularly satisfactory. It suggests that chronic prostatitis may have other more complicated mechanisms besides infection. Dr. Bi Huanzhou made a research on the immune mechanism, antibacterial factor level and superoxide dismutase of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of chronic prostatitis. He found that the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine is not only antibacterial, but also has the function of regulating immunity, increasing the level of zinc ion and superoxide dismutase in the prostate. On the basis of this understanding, Dr. Bi Huanzhou took the lead in breaking the old model of simple antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, and established a dual solution of anti-inflammatory and balancing, which has achieved good results.
