What are the hazards of the prostate gland? Urologists said that prostatitis is a very high incidence rate (4%~25%) and very confusing disease. Nearly 50% of men will experience the impact of prostatitis symptoms at some point in their lives. Due to its complex and diverse etiology, pathological changes, and clinical symptoms, which have a certain impact on male sexual and reproductive functions, it seriously affects the quality of life of patients, causing them great mental and physical suffering. The following is the harm of neglecting prostatitis and causing other prostate complications.
There are eight main hazards:
Posterior urethritis: Chronic prostatitis is often caused by posterior urethritis, especially urinary tract infections. In clinical practice, urinary tract irritation is often the first symptom of chronic prostatitis, and some non male doctors often mistake it for ordinary urethritis.
2. Chronic seminal vesiculitis: Chronic seminal vesiculitis is the most common complication of chronic prostatitis. The seminal vesicles are located on both sides of the prostate gland and are connected by ducts. Therefore, in the chronic course of the disease, inflammation disperses along the ducts and affects each other. Over time, it can lead to male sexual dysfunction or symptoms such as painful ejaculation and thick blood.
3. Allergic diseases: Chronic prostatitis, as a chronic lesion that lurks in the body for a long time, can become one of the allergens and cause various types of allergic diseases, such as arthritis, myositis, neuritis, etc.
4. Various types of cystitis: Chronic inflammation of the prostate gland spreads to the bladder, leading to significant urinary tract irritation symptoms.
5. Epididymitis: Chronic prostatitis and epididymitis often coexist, and inflammation can invade the epididymis, triggering chronic epididymitis. Appearing epididymal swelling, with a feeling of heaving and heaving, especially after sexual intercourse, the symptoms are more pronounced.
6. Infertility: chronic prostatitis is a very important cause of infertility. prostatic fluid is an important part of semen. When the prostate is inflamed, inflammatory exudate in the secretion of the gland increase and zinc decreases, which affects the quality of semen. For example, poor semen liquefaction leads to decreased sperm motility and activity rate, which affects pregnancy. Of course, this effect is not inevitable, The key is to see changes in the quality and quantity of semen and sperm.
7. Neurasthenia: A considerable number of patients with chronic prostatitis experience inner fluctuations such as paranoia and excessive sensitivity, leading to a series of symptoms of neurasthenia, such as insomnia and dreaminess, weak waist and legs, mental weakness, memory loss, and lack of concentration.
8. Impact on renal organs: The prostate gland is tightly attached to the bladder and closely related to the bladder. If it is bacterial prostatitis, the bacteria inside the prostate gland that is tightly attached to the bladder can infect the bladder. However, there is only a root ureter connection between the bladder and the kidney, which is also very close. Bacteria can easily reach the kidneys through the infected ureter. If the resistance is poor, kidney related problems can occur, such as nephritis.
