One of the most common diseases that affects many men over 35 is inflammation of the prostate gland. It creates many problems for men. Without timely treatment, prostatitis can turn into infertility. For the treatment of prostatitis, various drugs, physical therapy procedures and devices intended for home use are used.
Prostatitis: what is it?
Doctors call prostatitis an inflammation of the prostate gland. Characteristic signs of this disease are frequent urination accompanied by pain. A man's urine contains particles of blood and pus, very often patients experience erectile dysfunction, a decrease in libido and premature ejaculations are possible.
Devices for the treatment of prostatitis in hospital settings
Hardware treatment of prostatitis has a very positive effect on the production of enzymes necessary for the normal functioning of the reproductive system. This is a device treatment that improves blood circulation and also facilitates the penetration of antibacterial substances into the problem area. All devices for the treatment of prostatitis are divided into invasive and non-invasive.
When using invasive methods of treatment, special precision of manipulation is required, as well as mastery of healing skills. That is why these methods are used exclusively in hospitals.
Particularly popular among doctors are transrectal devices, which affect the prostate through the back wall of the intestine.
This effect is quite effective, as it allows you to quickly relieve pain and negative manifestations of the disease, helps to normalize the patient's condition and prevents the development of complications. Non-invasive treatments are easier to administer but are not as effective as transrectal treatments. Non-invasive methods help speed up medical treatment and have a beneficial effect on blood circulation in the genital area.
We list the main hardware methods for non-invasive treatment:
- Magnetotherapy - this type of treatment is based on the impact of a magnetic field on the area with the inflammatory process.
- electrostimulation - effect on the prostate gland through microcurrents.
- vibroacoustics is a type of prostate massage that is performed using liquid shock waves or a magnetic field.
- laser therapy is an effect on the prostate gland using soft infrared radiation.

Its use is effective in prostate adenoma, acute and chronic prostatitis, as well as in reduced erection. Treatment with the device is carried out only in hospital conditions.
Doctors do not recommend treatment if a man has:
- the likelihood of blood clots;
- diseases of the circulatory system and hematopoietic organs;
- tendency to bleed;
- angina pectoris;
- aneurysms of the heart or blood vessels;
- cerebrovascular accident;
- purulent abscesses;

Thermotherapy device
The device is a thermoradiofrequency device that is used to treat inflammation of the prostate gland. It is also indicated for reduced erection, libido and other urological problems.
It affects the organs of the genitourinary system thanks to radio frequency pulses that are completely safe. The different operating modes of the device allow the patient to choose the desired treatment mode and power. The device has backup memory, connects to a computer and presents information in the form of graphics. The device is used exclusively in hospitals, as it has a number of serious contraindications. Among the side effects of the device are the following: retention of urine, exacerbation of inflammatory processes, redness and itching of the skin.
The duration of one treatment is relatively long, 1-2 hours. The general course of procedures and their number are determined by the doctor.
Devices for the treatment of prostatitis at home
Various devices are also used at home to treat prostatitis. For this purpose, relatively easy-to-use quantum and microwave preparations of a non-invasive nature are used as a device for conducting magnetic-infrared laser therapy for various pathologies of the ENT organs or its modification. These devices are used for external radiation, through the skin in the prostate area. The advantage of such devices is that patients do not experience discomfort during treatment.
Also, these devices do not require special care or mandatory disinfection after use. All electrical devices for the treatment of the prostate gland can be used only after diagnosis. Treatment is exclusively prescribed by a doctor. Carrying out hardware effects on the prostate is undesirable if there are a number of contraindications:
- the presence of malignant tumors in the prostate or rectum;
