Anatomy has long been forgotten since knowledge from a school textbook should be useful in personal experience. Discomfort in one's body can start, it seems, from "nowhere". After reading the Internet and diagnosing yourself, you can start your problem quite loudly and create new ones. The prostate is an organ found exclusively in the male half of the population. Unfortunately, prostatitis occurs very often in men, especially in those who are over the age of five.
Causes
There are many reasons for prostatitis and even one of them can lead to serious violations in the work of the gland.
- Irregular sex life or its complete absence. Abnormal sexual intercourse is the cause of stagnant processes in the prostate gland, as this gland is responsible for erection, ejaculation.
- Regular or single hypothermia can contribute to inflammation of the prostate gland, reduce its functionality, lead to congestion and chronic prostatitis.
- Sexually transmitted infections in men who do not have prostatitis, as well as regular infection, lead to inflammation and infection of the glands and in those who have prostatitis in its original or chronic form, to aggravate the process.
- A sedentary or inactive lifestyle automatically leads to prostate dysfunction and stagnant processes.
- Alcohol use and alcoholism are a powerful trigger for glandular dysfunction.
- Unbalanced diet - the use of spicy, salty, smoked foods leads to irritation of the mucous membrane not only of the gastrointestinal tract, but also of the urinary system and prostate gland. Also, such stop products include excessive amounts of spices, seasonings and marinades. As a result, malnutrition leads to chronic inflammation of the prostate.
- Stress, nerve damage and tension, psychological instability to irritants - this factor can cause any disease, but also worsen existing ones. As they say, all wounds are from nerves.
- Coexisting chronic or experienced diseases. Any experienced disease significantly reduces immunity and if it is not strengthened, then you can easily "catch" the chronic form of the disease.
- Outbreaks appear to be exacerbated during pregnancy and in patients with defective immune systems.
- Sedentary lifestyle is a scourge for those who are inactive and do not accept sports. This is the most common cause of prostatitis. Violation of the venous circulation, which leads to problems in the prostate gland.
- Circulatory disorders in the pelvis. There can be many reasons for impaired blood flow - from normal constipation to hernias and pinched nerve endings in the joint. Reduced blood flow causes congestion and chronic inflammation of the gland.
Home treatment
It is quite difficult to treat prostate inflammation at home, but it is possible to avoid its occurrence in order to avoid a rather serious course of treatment with antibiotics and other accompanying drugs prescribed by a urologist.
The use of folk remedies is possible only if you want to prevent and avoid the disease. In acute form and chronic prostatitis, treatment with old-fashioned methods is excluded. But it is worth noting that neither folk remedies nor stories from a distant relative about a "miracle recovery" will help if you do not take the problem too seriously and with a competent approach to patients. Be prepared for the fact that home treatment is only a simultaneous method for the smaller fraction in order to speed up the main treatment process. As usual, treatment at home alone does not lead to positive results, but treatment of the joints is quite possible. These methods include:
- herbal tinctures, combined teas.
- massage (only after studying the correct technique by a specialist).
- gymnastics;
- a diet that excludes dangerous foods and alcohol;
- regular sex life;
- warm baths ordinary or with decoctions of soothing herbs.
- rubbing;
- small enemas with herbal teas.
We must remember that every man's body is unique and the symptoms can be different, so the choice of home remedies should also be based on a competent approach to himself. For example, one man needs herbal teas, while another only needs herbal baths, or micro-envelopes are completely unnecessary for someone who does not suffer from intestinal obstruction.
Folk remedies
onion peel
The most popular medicine that everyone hears about is the decoctions in onion peel. The composition of the bark contains many organic acids, vitamins, trace elements that are needed for men's health. A decoction of the bark also has antibacterial action, strengthens the immune system. It seems that everything can be treated with this decoction. But you do not need to drink this infusion in liters.
Preparation: Peel the onion from impurities and peels, put the clean peel in a saucepan of boiling water. Boil for 5-7 minutes. Then leave to cool and soak for about an hour.
After insisting, the infusion should be filtered through the bark and taken in a tablespoon 3 times a day. Home treatment in this way should not exceed a period of more than one week. Therefore, it is not necessary to prepare many skins. You can repeat the course in a few months.
Honey
Introducing honey into your diet instead of sugar will have a beneficial effect on the whole body as a whole, but only if you are not allergic to it, you have diabetes and honey itself is natural without additives and dyes.
If you want to help yourself with honey in the problem with prostatitis, then you can use it with tea or as an addition to cottage cheese or just your favorite dishes. No more than 200 grams of honey per day is recommended.
There is a peculiarity here as well: honey is not heated. That is, if you want to add it to the tea, then the drink should cool to at least 45 degrees. When heated, this healing product loses its beneficial properties. If you include honey in your diet wisely, then the work of the urinary system will soon improve, the itching and irritation will disappear.
In addition to the usual tea with honey, you can prepare an equally valuable and healthy decoction with fellant and honey. To prepare it you will need:
- 100 grams of dry celandine.
- 700 grams of boiling water.
- 500 grams of natural flower honey.
Preparation: Felantine should be boiled for 20-25 minutes and then allowed to infuse for about an hour or two. After the broth has cooled, drain the cheese and mix with the honey. You should use a decoction of 1 tablespoon three times a day for a month. But you should only do this when you are sure you will not need medication right now. Also, alcohol is strictly forbidden while taking this decoction. Store the infusion in an airtight jar in the refrigerator.
Pumpkin seeds
Pumpkin seeds contain a lot of zinc in their composition, so the daily rule for a man is 30 seeds a day. Of course, this natural medicine should not be fried, only raw. You can eat seeds in pure form daily or you can prepare medicinal "sweets".
To prepare sweets, you will need 500 grams of peeled raw pumpkin seeds and 200 grams of honey. Twist the seeds in a blender or meat grinder and mix with the honey. Make small walnut-sized balls and store them in the refrigerator. You can eat up to 5 of these candies daily. The balls should be chewed well and for a long time (about 3 minutes) and always before meals.
Freshly squeezed juices
With prostatitis, freshly squeezed juices are allowed, but not all fruits and berries are suitable for preventing the disease.The main products for making juices should be:
- asparagus;
- beetroot;
- cucumbers;
- carrot.
Fresh juices should be drunk in an amount of 0. 5 liters per day. However, with the adoption of such a juice supplement in the diet, it is better to consult a urologist, as it is not suitable for every man. By the way, it is desirable for every man to include asparagus in his diet, as they have a very positive effect on the prostate gland.
Exercises for chronic prostatitis
Occupations
The lower body should not feel pain or weakness during exercise. These are clear signs of decreased blood supply to the pelvis. Start small with 10-15 squats, gradually increase the number. If you can do up to 100 squats at a time, then this is enough to maintain good blood circulation and muscle tone daily. Also, this simple exercise will help a lot in sexual intercourse.
The most effective exercises are the simplest deep squats. But the technique of their execution is very important. The squats should be in the position of the legs wider than the shoulders, the squat should be slightly below the level of the knees. Do not perform the exercise abruptly - it is better to slow down, to monitor your breathing.
Kegel exercises
Usually this exercise is heard by women, but it will also bring great benefits to a man with constant training and repetitions. To perform the Kegel exercise, you need a full bladder. When urinating, you should hold the jet for a while and continue to empty the bladder. Alternatively: emptying - delay - emptying - delay. The delay should be done literally for a few seconds. Repeated repetitions improve blood circulation to the prostate.
Also, the exercise can be done simply by stretching the muscles without emptying. If you decide to start these exercises, then start doing them small - 5-6 repetitions during the day. It is very good if the number of repetitions after continuous training reaches 100. This will affect the health of the prostate gland, as well as sexual endurance.
Anal exercise of the anus
Exercises for the anal muscles are beneficial for the prostate gland. To perform this exercise, you must compress and decompress the clamp. Not only can this exercise be done almost constantly, it is also invisible to others. But its benefits are great - the prostate gland comes to the noma, and there is also prevention of hemorrhoids and prolapse of nodes from the rectum, and there is also recovery after this disease.
Yoga
The benefits of yoga are due to the fact that relaxed exercises involve all the muscles of the body, even those that are deep inside.
Many men are ashamed to go to yoga because they think this sport is feminine - it is a deep delusion and a stagnant stereotype. Therefore, if you want to restore your health, dispel these prejudices and do yoga at least according to the video lessons at home.
Particular emphasis should be placed on the following postures from Hatha Yoga:
- inverted asanas, which will unload the veins in the prostate grids.
- postures involving the hip joints.
- ABS exercises.
morning exercises

- slow squats, half squats;
- raising the legs to the knees as high as possible.
- squeezing a ball or pillow with your knees in an upright and sitting position.
