Why is traditional Chinese medicine the first choice for treating the prostate gland? What are the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in treating the prostate gland

Many patients who have come to treat prostate diseases have been to many hospitals, but their condition has not improved. Finally, I came to the idea of traditional Chinese medicine. What are the advantages and benefits of traditional Chinese medicine treatment? Why do we choose traditional Chinese medicine treatment for chronic prostatitis? Regarding this advantage, I would like to discuss the following characteristics:

First, traditional Chinese medicine treatment aims at the characteristics of chronic prostatitis, which means that the vast majority of chronic prostatitis is not bacterial. Prostatitis, especially chronic prostatitis, is more than 90%, and some people even say that more than 95% is not caused by bacterial infection. What is the reason for this? It is related to lifestyle, such as prostatitis caused by cold, frozen prostatitis, eating chili peppers, eating stimulating food, eating it, drinking it, sitting for a long time, irregular sexual activity, and suffocating it. Most of the prostatitis caused by these lifestyles are non bacterial and non inflammatory.

"It is characterized by hyperemia, muscle spasms in the prostate, and local muscle spasms. Therefore, over 60% of chronic prostatitis in the entire prostatitis is unrelated to bacteria and inflammation. The main symptoms are also known as pelvic floor muscle pain syndrome, which is characterized by instability, spasms, and pain in the perineum and pelvic floor muscles. Antibiotics are powerless to treat prostatitis caused by this type,", "What cannot be solved is that, in addition to these factors, there are also certain relationships with a person's physique, environment, and emotions. In this regard, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can better target his physique and treat the characteristics of the disease base. The mechanism of the disease is complex, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment is precisely targeted at its relatively complex characteristics of the disease base.".

Secondly, traditional Chinese medicine is a comprehensive consideration, with a holistic perspective. It not only focuses on the prostate, but also focuses on the tissues around the prostate, as well as on his lifestyle, the nature of his work, and the characteristics of his physique. After comprehensive consideration, we call it a holistic concept. In addition to looking at the symptoms of the patient, what the characteristics of prostate fluid are, and what the type is, it also depends on the characteristics of the entire physique, Whether it's a constitution of yang deficiency or a constitution of dampness and heat, overall, consider the issue comprehensively. Some patients believe that the symptoms of prostatitis may be a psychological problem. Just staring at the prostate cannot solve the problem.

Third, treatment based on syndrome differentiation, why should it be treated based on syndrome differentiation? Because the condition of prostatitis is very complex, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it can be divided into four to six syndrome types according to its different physical constitution, mental state, pathogenesis, and inducements. Traditionally, it can be divided into damp heat stasis, qi stagnation and blood stasis, spleen and kidney yang deficiency, and liver and kidney yin deficiency. We have clinically found that there can also be deficiency of middle qi, stagnation of liver qi, and these six syndrome types, in addition to these six syndrome types in our clinical practice, It is not a single syndrome type, but most of them are complex syndrome types, which means there are both damp heat, blood stasis, kidney deficiency, and liver stasis.

From the perspective of Western medicine, Western medicine classifies prostatitis into four types: acute bacterial, chronic bacterial, chronic non bacterial, chronic non bacterial inflammatory, chronic non bacterial non inflammatory, and asymptomatic. Currently, this classification method does not fully conform to clinical characteristics. Therefore, in the past two years, there has been a new international study that divides prostatitis into six domains, which can include the main types of urination symptoms, There are local organ type pain in the prostate, infection type, psychosocial type, and then local muscle type. Each patient may be the result of one or two or three comprehensive actions, that is, a patient may have symptoms of urination, pain, infection factors, and some psychosocial factors, which can exist simultaneously, which is complicated.

Some patients will say, "I am also in pain, he is also in pain, and he is suffering from prostatitis. Why are our two prescriptions different? I will tell him that prostatitis is characterized by thousands of people and faces, and the same is true of the condition. Birth is not an assembly line, and individuals are not standard components. It requires a personalized principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine has its advantages in this regard. Traditional Chinese medicine is a different prescription for everyone, and treatment is based on syndrome differentiation and treatment.", So it's personalized.

Fourth, traditional Chinese medicine not only treats prostatitis, but also prevents it. Traditional Chinese medicine treats prostatitis. After the symptoms of the prostate are cured, and after they are eliminated, we don't agree. It's okay. We often need to consolidate the patient's physique to prevent the recurrence of prostatitis. A patient with deficiency of qi may catch a cold and have a onset of prostatitis, while catching a cold and having a onset of prostatitis, "The symptoms of prostatitis have been eliminated, but the patient's Qi deficiency, his constitution being relatively weak, still exists. If his constitution is not corrected, prostatitis may occur again next time because he is too weak and vulnerable.". We must guard against it, how? To improve physical fitness and prevent the recurrence of prostatitis, this is the fourth advantage.

Fifth, our traditional Chinese medicine treatment often focuses on traditional Chinese medicine treatment, while traditional Chinese medicine treatment is relatively safe and has relatively few side effects. Therefore, whether treating prostatitis for three months or even longer, using traditional Chinese medicine for treatment is relatively safe and has relatively few side effects. It is also suitable for long-term use without serious side effects. When treating prostatitis, it is recommended to use antibiotics for 4 to 8 weeks or 12 weeks, which is a significant side effect, Currently, many hospitals are enthusiastic about using some treatment methods, such as intracavitary therapy, mechanical physiotherapy in the urethra, and rectum. These side effects are very significant. After some treatment, the urethra narrows, some clogs the ejaculatory orifice, no semen is ejected, and some even show other injuries. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine treatment is relatively safe, with relatively small side effects.

Sixth, traditional Chinese medicine treatment is relatively convenient. People say that traditional Chinese medicine is not convenient, and it is not convenient to use it. But in fact, it is relatively convenient. Today's traditional Chinese medicine, including both decoction medicine and traditional Chinese patent medicines and simple preparations, capsules, tablets, granules, and now there are non decocting granules. When traditional Chinese medicine is made into granules, patients no longer need to take large bags. They can drink it as long as they flush it with hot water. This is more convenient than some treatments, such as daily infusion and daily machine therapy.

Seventh, compared to other treatment methods, traditional Chinese medicine is relatively inexpensive. Nowadays, some people fry traditional Chinese medicine, and the price of traditional Chinese medicine is also relatively higher. However, even so, using traditional Chinese medicine for treatment is still cheaper than other methods. Therefore, in a comprehensive way, the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine include treating and preventing diseases based on the overall concept and syndrome differentiation, with relatively small side effects, convenient use, and relatively low prices, These seven advantages can be said to be the main advantages of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of prostatitis, and the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment is also relatively good. Because the curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine treatment is relatively accurate for the disease base, and sometimes it takes effect relatively quickly, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be said to have significant advantages in the treatment of anterior prostatitis, especially chronic prostatitis, so it is worth the choice of patients and friends with prostatitis.
