Among prostate diseases, in addition to the most common prostatitis, the incidence rate of prostate cancer in foreign countries is also very high, especially in European and American countries, research work is also ongoing.
In the United States, prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men and the second leading cause of cancer related deaths. According to the American Cancer Society, about one in six men will be at risk of developing prostate cancer, with one in thirty six people dying from the disease. The high incidence of prostate disease in foreign men is not only related to their sexual life, but also related to their daily habits.
Beef and mutton are the main sources of meat in most countries. Both beef and mutton are warm meat, which is not beneficial for the recovery of prostate diseases. At the same time, mutton is also a material for warming and tonifying the kidney yang, which has the effect of enhancing sexual desire. Eating too much is not only detrimental to the treatment of prostate cancer, but can lead to excessive sexual desire, which can easily lead to indulgence. Excessive consumption of butter can lead to prostate hypertrophy. These two kinds of foods are just essential dietary components in many countries. Therefore, there are more patients with prostate diseases abroad than in China.
There are several treatment methods for prostate cancer abroad, including physical therapy, interventional therapy, antibiotic therapy, and surgical treatment.
Many physical therapy devices have been introduced from abroad. Physical therapy is one of the non drug therapeutic methods based on modern Western medicine, which utilizes the physiological response of the human body to physical stimuli to achieve therapeutic purposes. There are many methods of physical therapy. For prostate diseases, physical therapy has two methods: hydrotherapy to improve blood circulation, and ultraviolet disinfection.
In fact, many patients have received hydrotherapy, which is a placebo that can relieve pain in the radiation zone, but it is not effective for the disease. Ultraviolet disinfection has no effect on the sterile inflammation of chronic prostatitis, so almost patients who have received physical therapy will feel that treatment is no different from no treatment.
Interventional therapy for many patients is to insert a catheter for catheterization, which can really solve the urgent problem for patients with acute urinary retention, but it is an emergency relief measure for the inability to excrete urine, which is not good for prostate disease. There are also interventional treatments that deliver drugs directly to the prostate by injection, but patients who receive this method are less effective, and many treatment institutions are also afraid to easily use this method. The reason is that the direct injection of drugs into the prostate is usually administered through the rectum, making it difficult to ensure that bacteria in the rectum are not carried to other organs. Moreover, the needle eye brought to the prostate by needle tip puncture is difficult to recover, and it can also form a source of stiffness.
Antibiotic treatment is the most common treatment for inflammation in Western medicine. However, foreign countries only use antibiotic therapy for patients with very severe symptoms for prostate treatment. Many patients with inconspicuous symptoms are told after examination that they do not need treatment, which is another reason why prostate diseases in foreign countries are more serious, because prostate diseases cannot heal themselves, and without treatment, they will only become increasingly serious. In patients with severe symptoms, after receiving large doses of antibiotics, reaching a certain concentration of antibiotics can alleviate some symptoms, but as long as the concentration of antibiotics decreases, symptoms will recur.
The most effective treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia abroad is direct surgery, which is performed directly when the hyperplasia reaches a certain level. The initial stage of hyperplasia is not treated. The part removed by the surgery is precisely the part that makes up for the insufficient function. Therefore, 2-3 years after the resection, in order to make up for the prostate function, the gland will also proliferate. This forms a cycle of surgery and reoperation.
This is also the personal experience of our foreign patients. The strengths of Western medicine lie in inspection and first aid. For chronic diseases, such as chronic prostate disease, Western medicine is more of a science and art that adopts natural therapies, using substances and methods directly related to human life, such as food, air, water, sunlight, gymnastics, sleep, rest, and mental factors beneficial to health, such as hope, faith, to maintain and restore health. Let patients adopt a healthy lifestyle and enhance the body's self-healing ability. "It is indeed a very good method of rehabilitation, but many chronic diseases, as long as they give up treatment, are tantamount to letting themselves go, and will only become more and more serious. In the end, the condition will worsen and the medicine stone will be weak.".
