Prostatitis is a disease that causes a lot of harm. The emergence of prostatitis has brought us too much pain. But it seems that the disease is light, but it is not. Prostatitis is still a disease that does great harm to us. Patients should be treated as soon as possible to avoid more serious consequences. Now let's introduce the specific hazards of acute prostatitis.
Hazards of acute prostatitis:
(1) Acute urinary retention:
Prostatitis causes prostate congestion, swelling, and pressure on the urethra, resulting in difficulty in urination. If acute urinary retention is caused, it will be one of the hazards of acute prostatitis.
(2) Epididymitis:
Acute prostatitis is easy to spread to the seminal vesicles, causing acute seminal vesiculitis is also one of the hazards of acute prostatitis. At the same time, bacteria can enter the wall layer and outer sheath of the vas deferens through the lymphatic vessels and cause orchitis.
(3) Affect fertility:
It can lead to long-term chronic inflammation of male infertility, change the composition of prostate fluid, affect the secretion function of prostate, and then affect the liquefaction time of semen, and decrease sperm vitality, which can lead to male infertility.
(4) Causes chronic nephritis:
Develop into uremia. If prostatitis is not treated in time, it can lead to hyperplasia of the prostate, which will compress the bladder outlet, make urine not completely empty, and residual urine will appear. Residual urine is a good medium for bacterial reproduction, and the defense mechanism of bladder mucosa is damaged, so it is very easy to cause urinary tract infection such as pyelonephritis. If the treatment is not complete at this time, it will develop from pyelonephritis and hydronephrosis to nephritis and finally to uremia.
(5) Infection of spouse causes gynecological inflammation:
Prostatitis can infect the wife, especially the prostatitis caused by special pathogenic bacteria. Its inflammation can infect the wife through sexual intercourse. Such as mycotic prostatitis, trichomonal prostatitis, gonococcal prostatitis, non-gonococcal (chlamydia, mycoplasma) prostatitis, etc.
(6) Easy to cause infection:
The human prostate contains an antibacterial substance called prostate antibacterial factor. When the gland is inflamed, this antibacterial factor is reduced, which is easy to cause infection. The infection caused by prostatitis can cause acute urine accumulation, acute seminal vesiculitis or epididymitis, vasculitis, enlargement or tenderness of spermatic lymph nodes, etc., and can cause groin pain or renal colic in severe cases.
