Prevalence of Prostatitis
Prostatitis is the most common cause of urinary tract infections in men, leading to approximately 2 million doctor’s visits each year in the United States. Half of all men will experience prostatitis during their lifetime. The National Center for Health Statistics estimates that about 25% of all men who see a doctor for urological problems have symptoms of prostatitis.
Is Prostatitis Cancer?
No. Prostatitis is a benign ailment, which, while not always curable, is almost always treatable with antibiotics. Occasionally, inflammation due to prostatitis can raise your PSA level (prostate-specific antigen). However, it does not lead to cancer.
What is the Prostate?
The prostate is a walnut-sized gland that sits below the bladder in men. This gland makes fluid that mixes with sperm to form semen. Prostatitis is inflammation or swelling of the prostate gland. When symptoms start gradually and linger for more than a couple of weeks, the condition is called chronic prostatitis.
What happens if prostatitis is left untreated?
Treatment
At our center we offer a treatment that reduces the chronic inflammation associated with prostatitis.
Numbing cream is applied to the penile shaft and after 30 minutes a small injection on both sides of the shaft is done. The solution reduces inflammation in the cells of the prostate.
