Treatment of Prostatitis for Enlarged Prostate/Swollen Prostate
Introduction
Enlarged prostate/swollen prostate is one of the major symptoms of prostatitis. Enlarged prostate causes a variety of urinary symptoms such as urgent urination, frequent urination, unable to empty the bladder completely, weak urine stream, dribbling urine, etc. Many cases of prostatitis with swollen prostate are misdiagnosed as BPH, or benign prostatic hyperplasia. In fact, when prostate is enlarged or swollen, it is not as simple as the enlargement of the prostate. There could be the presence of bacteria infection, or formation of organic waste. In some cases, the bacteria infection is mild that the patient may not notice there is some kind of infection in the prostate.
For enlarged prostate or swollen prostate, our treatment is the most successful remedy worldwide. We understand the causes of enlarged prostate inside out and know how to shrink the swollen prostate from its root. The compound formula is only practiced in our clinic. As far as we know, no other clinics or medical institutions provide unblocking elements in their remedies for enlarged and swollen prostate.
Relationship between Enlarged Prostate/Swollen Prostate and Prostatitis
Enlarged prostate has a close relationship with prostatitis. When bacteria infection invades along the urethra and finally reach the prostate. The exponential growth of bacteria produces lots of organic waste and accumulates in various prostate glands or acini. The blockage formation process continues and the prostate keeps swelling until there is no more room to hold the blockage.
Enlarged or swollen prostate keeps swelling as long as there is infection, the typical cause of prostatitis. The infection not just expands the size of the prostate, it also cause irregular shape of the prostate and the hardening of the texture.
Many doctors have misdiagnosed prostatitis with enlarged/swollen prostate as BPH, benign prostatic hyperplasia/hypertrophy, and prescribe natural medicine such as Saw Palmetto, Quercetin, etc, in an effort to shrink the swollen prostate. As a result, the medications have little effect controlling the size of the swollen prostate.
Problems in Treating Prostatitis with Swollen/Enlarged Prostate
Our doctors have to face many problems when treating swollen prostate.
Misdiagnosis on Swollen Prostate
Western doctors have repeatedly misdiagnosed and mistreated swollen or enlarged prostate as non-infectious, and often focus the shrinking the swollen prostate rather than study the cause behind the prostate symptoms.
Poor Laboratory Tests
With limited knowledge on prostatitis and swollen prostate, doctors may misdiagnose based on improper laboratory procedures. Urine is used as the culture specimen rather than the prostate fluid and come out with many false results.
Misleading Laboratory Reports
The patient is also mislead by the doctor's misdiagnosis and believes that his enlarged prostate is non-infectious. He may contract the infection to his sex partner through unprotected sex.
Sensitive Swollen Prostate
During pre-treatment digital rectal examination on the swollen prostate, some are very sensitive to the pressure of the finger and may need to stop the diagnosis. These cases need to use semen as culture specimen.
Longer Duration to Unclog the Enlarged Prostate
Since there are infection and blockage in the swollen prostate, the cavity of the enlarged prostate can only hold a fixed amount of the medicine, more antibiotics medicine is used to eradicate prostate infection and less medicine for unblocking, therefore, it takes more time for the shrinking process.
Complications of Enlarged Prostate
For chronic prostatitis, there are more complications with the enlarged prostate. For example, lumps may present, or there are multiple spots of calcified stones. It takes even more time for the eradication of these obstacles. The doctor needs to be precise in these spots and injects more medicine to them.
Urinary Symptoms of Swollen Prostate
In a few cases, the chunks of the blockage may block the urethra and cause temporary inability to urinate. The problem can be solved with a catheter.
Assistant Treatment
The swollen prostate may also cause proctitis, hard stools, bleeding and discomfort in the rectum. An assistant treatment called rectal perfusion is used to help cure the problem.
Shrinking the Prostate
If severely swollen prostate shrinks dramatically, then it indicates that the unblocking process is very efficient. It also greatly enhances the chance of a complete cure on prostatitis.
Complete Eradication of Prostate Symptoms and Pain
Since enlarged prostate causes severe physiological changes to the prostate, it requires more time for the prostate to get rid of symptoms and pain completely. There may be some symptoms and pain left after the treatment. It would take a few months for the prostate to be free of all pain or symptoms.
Treatment for Prostatitis with Enlarged or Swollen Prostate
The clinic has a distinctive remedy to eradicate enlarged prostate with antibiotics and Chinese herbal medicine. The remedy consists of:
- A specially designed long needle and a syringe
- A variety of antibiotics for specific kind of bacteria, viral and candida infection
- Unblocking herbal medicine to dissolve the blockage, cyst and calcification
Swollen prostate prevents the infiltration of medicine and provide a hiding area for the bacteria. The enlarged prostate also prevents our herbal medicine and antibiotics from working efficiently and properly. Therefore, it is first priority that both the infection and the swelling of the prostate need to be handled right from the start.
Eradication of bacteria infection and swelling should start right in the prostate. This injection treatment is the most efficient way of allowing large amount of antibiotics in the prostate to fight the bacteria, without losing any discounted efficacy like the oral antibiotics treatment. The medicine also contains herbal medicine that is used for shrinking of the swollen prostate.
Since the enlarged prostate is a tender organ, ordinary needle is too big for the treatment. Also it is quite a distance to reach the prostate from the anus, so a custom made long needle with extra elasticity is used. The kind of needle can be used daily without causing any permanent damage to the prostate tissue.
Even though the patient has an obvious enlarged prostate, our treatment focuses on infection with more antibiotics added in the medicine during the first part of the treatment. The herbal medicine is also added but with lower dosage.
A specific kind of Chinese herbal medicine plays a critical role in our treatment. Since antibiotics cannot do anything with the blockage that causes the swelling, the herbal medicine eradicates blockage over a period of time, and eventually shrink the swollen prostate back to its original size.
In addition, the herbal medicine stops the blocked prostate in providing an environment favorable for the growth of bacteria. Removal of the blockage allows antibiotics to reach every part of the prostate and greatly enhance the efficacy of the treatment. It would be very difficult to kill all bacteria with the presence of extensive blockage and therefore chance of relapse is very high.
When part of the blockage is removed, the swollen prostate is now softer and smaller. The dull pain from the prostate gradually reduces during the course of the treatment. At the end of the treatment, the infection should be gone completely, most pain and symptoms gone. The residual blockage may cause slight level of pain or symptoms.
Prostatitis with swollen and calcified prostate is the most difficult category. Since calcified stones are harder and denser than the texture of blockage, additional treatment days may be needed to dissolve as much as calcified spots as possible.
Procedure of Treatment for Prostatitis (Swollen Prostate)
Before the treatment, the patient stands on his knees and bend over a bed. Medicine used for injection is prepared by mixing antibiotics and herbal medicine in a specific scale. Then, the medicine is placed in a syringe with a long needle. The doctor first needs to examine the swollen prostate with a gloved finger inserted to the rectum, then he locates the spot where he is going to treat. A needle is injected to the specific location of the prostate by the guidance of the gloved finger, through a specific location near the anus.
After injection, the medicine is now occupying most part of the prostate. Another quick massage is done to allow better infiltration.
The treatment is a skillful, non-invasive, non-surgical remedy for prostatitis with swollen prostate. It is a perfect combination of western antibiotics and eastern herbal medicine that make the treatment works.
