What to do about pelvic pain

Many people usually do not pay much attention to some changes in their bodies. They will only get nervous when they feel pain. In particular, many people often suffer from pelvic pain. This kind of pain must be considered as an abnormal manifestation, because normal people will not experience pelvic pain. It is not ruled out that there may be some inflammation, or the patient may have urinary diseases, stones, etc. These are all causes of pelvic pain.

Basic Introduction

The pathogenesis of chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) (type III) is still not fully understood, and the incidence rate can reach 2.5% to 16.0%, making it the most common urological disease in men under 50 years old.

Symptoms

Recurring pain

One-third of prostatitis cases are characterized by chronic pelvic pain syndrome. Compared with other prostatitis patients, patients with this disease have obvious recurrent pain.

Symptoms of swelling

Symptoms such as heaviness and swelling may occur in the perineum, groin, perianal area, scrotum, inner thighs, and testicles.

Diagnosis

Ultrasound examination

A B-ultrasound of the urinary system should be performed to rule out other urinary system diseases, because stones can sometimes cause pain in the above-mentioned areas. In addition, a prostate fluid examination can also be performed to see if there is a significant increase in the number of white blood cells in the prostate fluid. The more plus signs there are, the more severe the inflammation. In addition, men should not reject "physical examination", that is, prostate digital examination. Because people who have been suffering from the disease for two to three years usually have fibrosis in the peripheral zones of both lobes of the prostate, which can be detected through digital examination.

Massage Methods

At present, some organizations have launched "prostate health massage method" for men, claiming that it can make the prostate healthy and improve sexual ability. Director Li pointed out that this method of prostate massage is actually a variation of prostate digital examination. Digital prostate examination is not a massage in the ordinary sense. You cannot touch it randomly and there are clear requirements for the technique. Since the gland itself moves slowly, it is more effective to press it quietly with your fingers for a while.

remind

Heat therapy baths are not recommended

Patients should not receive heat therapy or sitz baths

The so-called "heat therapy" is to insert a tube through the anus and rectum and introduce warm water at about 40 degrees Celsius to promote the discharge of prostatic fluid by raising the body temperature. However, doctors do not recommend using heat therapy to treat pelvic pain syndrome. Prostatic fluid is an important component of male semen. The use of heat therapy will cause semen to not liquefy, thus affecting fertility. Since excessively high local temperature will affect the testicular spermatogenesis function, patients with prostatitis should not take a bath in a tub. The water temperature should be two to three degrees Celsius lower than body temperature.

Not suitable for cold brew

Some men have the crazy idea of ​​soaking their private parts in cold water. In fact, local low temperature can lead to poor blood circulation, and the cause of varicocele is related to poor blood circulation. Men should not take cold showers for more than five minutes, and should immediately dry their bodies with a dry towel, applying slight force until the skin turns red, slightly congested, and the whole body becomes hot, in order to achieve the health-care effect. But this law does not apply to privacy.
