Nowadays, most doctors consider folk remedies to be no worse than drugs and even recommend combining both of these methods for effective treatment of prostatitis at home. Using folk recipes, you can not only ease the course of the disease, but also significantly strengthen the body's immune system.
Prostatitis mainly affects the prostate gland, which causes a severe inflammatory process. The disease can begin to develop suddenly due to the fact that pathogenic bacteria, viruses and fungal pathogens enter the prostate. Blood stagnation in the veins of the scrotum and the secretion of semen have a negative impact on men's health. Treatment methods in each case are selected individually. This disease can be treated both in the hospital and at home. It is important to follow all the instructions and recommendations of the doctors. Basically, prostatitis has 2 forms: acute and chronic.
