"Black" Trap 1: Abuse of Antibiotics
Some patients may mistakenly believe that antibiotics are anti-inflammatory drugs and should be used if they have prostatitis. In fact, inflammation and infection are two different things. Infection is caused by pathogens such as bacteria, which can manifest as inflammation, but many of them are not caused by infection, called "sterile inflammation.". About 90% of patients with prostatitis are sterile, and less than 10% of infectious inflammation can truly find pathogens. Antibiotics for aseptic prostatitis not only do not have an anti-inflammatory effect, but also cause local flora imbalance in the body, exacerbating the difficulty of treatment.
"Black" color trap 2: eager to achieve success, quick battle and quick decision
The vast majority of prostatitis is non infectious inflammation, caused by local congestion, edema, and fever caused by factors such as prolonged sitting, holding urine, drinking alcohol, eating spicy food, and catching cold. "And there is a layer of three tissues wrapped around it, making it difficult for drugs to penetrate through the bloodstream, making it impossible to make a quick decision on treatment.".
"Black" Trap 3: Patients make their own decisions and go to the pharmacy to buy their own medicine
There is a famous clinical saying: "Diagnosis is more important than treatment.". "It is blind to use drugs without a clear diagnosis of a disease. Patients can go to the pharmacy to purchase drugs on their own, which is fine for minor illnesses such as headache and fever, but not necessarily for difficult and complex diseases such as prostate disease.".
"Black" Trap 4: Single treatment, no comprehensive treatment
The etiology of prostatitis is complex, coupled with special physiological and anatomical characteristics, and it is often impossible to treat prostatitis with one method. For example, bacterial (infectious) prostatitis, while using antibiotics, it is necessary to improve local blood circulation, enhance the immune function of the body, improve phagocytic function, and so on. Only with the cooperation of all parties can it work.
For men, it is necessary to choose the correct method to treat the prostate gland and avoid falling into the wrong zone of treatment and aggravating the condition. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for a comprehensive examination and treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
