Prostatitis is the most common disease in young and middle-aged men, often caused by urethritis, seminal vesiculitis or epididymitis. Clinically, there are acute and chronic, bacterial infection and non-infection, specificity and non-specific. It can be completely asymptomatic and can also cause continuous or repeated urogenital infection. So what is the cause of prostatitis?
The infection mode of prostatitis is blood infection or direct transmission. Direct transmission through urethra is common, mainly due to:
1. Gland hyperplasia and calculus make the prostate urethra deformed, curved and congested, and lose immunity to non-pathogenic bacteria.
2. Prostate infection caused by bacteria or upper urinary tract inflammatory bacteria; The second is blood infection, which is often secondary to acute infection of skin, tonsils, dental caries, intestines or respiratory tract. Bacteria reach the prostate through blood to cause infection.
3. In sexual urethritis, bacteria enter the prostate through the prostate tube to cause inflammation.
