CHRONIC PROSTATITIS explained by urologist | The 4 Types of Prostatitis | Treatment | Diagnosis

@@wormraper how to cure?

[@wormraper]

@@BS-uk2jr the problem is finding out WHAT is causing it first. CPPS/Chronic Prostatitis is like cancer in that it is not just ONE disease or condition causing the same symptoms. It's a grab bag term used to cover the symptoms, and the cause can be multi faceted. For some it truly is bacterial that has never been caught, but for most people it is trauma. Basically your pelvic floor going into hyper tension because you had a back injury, a spinal problem, or your pelvis is twisted and rotating causing stress down there. Many many people get much more help with a GOOD physical therapist who will work with you and find out what is causing the tension in your body, and take care of that, thusly eliminating the need for your pelvic floor to go into hyper tension. I spent 7 years not knowing WHAT caused it, until I re-injured a 10 year old back injury and suddenly I got a MASSIVE spike in my CPPS. This clued my physical therapist into the fact that it was muscular-skeletal in nature and with some guess/test/revise methods we worked on lowering problems from my back injury, and worked on pelvic floor release excercises that worked for me and it's been reducing as my back injury goes down. The trouble with each individual person is finding out WHAT is causing your pelvis to feel like it needs to go haywire.

Hi doc and greetings from sweden! I wish I had a doctor like you over here.. struggling with bacterial prostatitis for 5 years now. I keep getting infections and the doctors give me antibiotics. Ive done xray, ultra sound, cystoscopy, and the one thing that is ”wrong ” is that i have a cyst (?), a pea sized ball in my prostate. I want to remove it, since im not getting well, but the doctors say that its only water, and that if we would remove it it Will fill up with water again. The bacteria is almost always e-coli. Between the prostatitis ive had several bitesticle inflammations, with e coli bacterias. I had to do surgery one month ago because it was so infected and my ballsack got filled with some fluid. I also learned i had a cyst on the bitesticle that they burnt of. I wish it was ”only” the pain, but all these bacterias and antibiotics makes it so hard to keep on. I dont know what to do.. i have a daughter coming in october, so that and my gf is the only thing kereping me alive. Im 29y/o and it all started 2016. Shoutout to all the brave men fighting this horrible disease! You are not alone. I hope you read this doc, i really need help

I have all the symptoms of chronic prostatitis to a T..... I had a PSA of 5.5 and the urologist wants to have me do a biopsy. The DRE was normal with a slight enlargement. My question is why wouldnt he exhaust all the other measures that my symptoms could be and instead go straight to a biopsy. I had no infection tests or anything like that, I did do a 2 week round of cipro which dropped my score to 4.5 but then it rose again, wouldnt that indicate infection??. Also I would really really like to know and cant seem to find the info anywhere online, just how much of a rise in score will ejaculation or heavy exercise within 24hrs of a psa test actually raise it. I can find that those activities can skew a test but not by how much... Thank You

Hi Doc, I was testosterone therapy for my low number until my PSA came back at 2.91. So my doctor took me off of it because he said if there is cancer in the prostate testosterone would feed it. So I came back in 3 months and it was down to 1.93. In October of 2022 I caught a UTI where they found E. coli in my urine. In March of 2023 my PSA came back at 3.41. And just last week in September 2023 my PSA came back at 2.61. Now the urologist wants to do a biopsy. I have many of the symptoms you mentioned. Should they be ruling out everything else first before just jumping to a biopsy? Thanks! I’m 54 year old African American male.

Over the past 2 years my psa had been rising every six months average of increase .7 when my psa went from 2.2 to 3.5 I had my first mri which was deemed a level 2 and radiologist saw T2 weighted image looked consistent with chronic prostatitis. Then about a year later my psa went from 3.5 to 4.8 and had another prostate mri which showed in the radiologist point of view again T2 image consistent with chronic prostatitis. Plus a nodule that grew a little so now I was deemed category 3 and went for a biopsy which was negative however on one out of 16 biopsy they saw 3 atypical HGPIN cells no big deal. 6 months later my PSA was unchanged. Fast foward to last week my psa was 5.6 however I believe it was contaminated because I ejaculated within 12 hours of the test. I am going to retake the test in 2 weeks with no ejaculation or exercise 1 week before test. I don't really have any symptoms of chronic prostatitis however my frequency has increased a little. My question for you is can I safely say I have chronic prostatitis because of the mri findings which is responsible for my increased psa and if I ejaculated about 12 hours before my last psa if you had to guess ballpark how much would my psa have risen because of that?. Is a weighted T2 image reliable for chronic prostatitis on mri. I am not really worried as the biopsy last July 2021 was negative. I did order that herbal supplement you suggested on another video.

Dear DR ERIC . I have blood clot and blood in my ejaculation. Psa normal. Symptoms=weak stream and frequent urination. NO Fever , just a little burning sensation in prostate and penis. This has occurred 4 times. It comes roughly every 1.5 yrs. Each times it lasted for about 2 months. I didn't take any medication. It came, lasted two months , then disappeared with no medication. But since eight yrs ago, i started to notice that my urine stream was weak. Could this be bph, or prostatitis.? I am now 50yrs old. Thank you .

Hi, by all the symptoms I have, I know that I have a chronic prostatitis. My PSA is normal and there is no bacteria ( my lab showed). Regardless of that, my RN is telling me to take antibiotic - Ciprofloxacn for 7 days and then (in about a month) to see a doctor she is working with. She also just prescribed Tamsulosin for me today because I told her that the symptoms are not improving a lot. Your thoughts doctor?

5 years ago I experienced clear watery discharge from penis , burning sensation in urethra and frequent urination ....Doctor told me that this might be some STD like gonorrhea..........He gave me antibiotics which i used for a week but after one week i started feeling severe pain in testes and swelling.....I changed the doctor and the new doctor did tests .including urine culture, VDRL and HIV test .......Thank God all tests were negative ............I was then given an injection and antibiotics for one month ...I cured everything and was fine.......But now in 2023 i started feeling mild pain in testes and sweollen veins in scrotum which comes and go ........and pain spreads to lower abdomen , back ....and even thighs and legs ............and i feel better when i exercise.,..,..............I have repeated the tests before taking antibiotics but all were negative........Antibiotics arent working and 25 days have been passed ..... Is this prostatis or some STD like gonorrhea?..If so why bacteria doesn't show in urine culture ?...please help...

[@scoot0boy]

Does this match anyone's experience? My urologist suspects I might have prostatitis. Perhaps it's the non-bacterial chronic version of prostatitis. Nothing "emergent" shows up on urinalysis, blood tests, ultrasound, or CT scan. I just get a weird ache in my balls and abdomen that comes and goes. Sometimes I have sharp pains that knock the wind out of me. My urine is occasionally cloudy and urinating doesn't "burn" so much as it always feels like that ouch feeling when you realize you waited too long to urinate. My testicles are so sensitive that I can be in pain all day after visiting the doctor or bumping myself the wrong way. I've been dealing with this for about a month. Flowmax and Antibiotics. It's not gone yet. Any help on this are greatly appreciated! 😢

Prostatitis sucks! I've had it several times in my early twenties with crazy high fever and just sick in bed. My doctor said sometimes you just get dealt a bad hand and end up with the infection. It seemed to happen after I was very sexually active and then abruptly stopped due to a relationship ending. Fortunately I haven't had an infection now in over 20 years coincidentally as long as I've been married.

[@therealgist]

Hey man.... What did you do to get rid of the infection? Did it just go away on its own?

[@gymrat3203]

@@therealgist I was extremely sick with flu like symptoms, pounding headache, body aches and a very high fever 104 degrees, and my balls, taint and back ached bad too. The doctor put me on Ciprofloxacin (big horse pills) 500 mg twice a day for a month. I was also told to ejaculate daily once I felt better. The fever broke within a couple of days and within a week I was starting to feel better. The doctor said the prostate was like a sponge and when you nut it would help by squeezing some of the infection out and it is also why you are on the antibiotic for so long. Now I had a severe case most likely caused by bacteria but I guess there are dudes who deal with it chronically which would suck.

[@gymrat3203]

@@BS-uk2jr I don't think being married helps prevent it. Probably the regular sex of 3 or 4 times a week in a long term relationship VS being young and horny and banging 5 times in a day in short lived relationship. I meet someone and that is all we would do for a a month or two and then break up. Banging 5 times a day became jacking off once or twice every couple of days and the abrupt change in nuttting frequency messed me up.

[@rafaelthemotivator]

Why do urologist use a scope in the urethra to check the prostate? There's no way that they can see the prostate!!! They can ONLY see the inside of the bladder 🤦‍♂️. They know that, but they wanna squeeze that insurance money out of you. The proper way is to get a the ultra sound transanal with color dopler. Also prostate biopsies are Dangerous, they can cause dangerous infections transfered from your poop when putting that needle into your prostate. Transrectal ultrasound can see the cancer. There's a Doctor in Colombia that uses this simple technology to detect cancer, and other prostate problems. The test is called PROSTATE CMP. look it up!!! It's done in Colombia Bogota. I don't understand why United States doesn't do this simple 10 minutes test!!!

[@KoolAidDinkyTV]

I have urinary frequency , urine dribbling and problems with bowel. I think i might have weak pelvic floor but i still need to see urologist. What you said is what my mom said about using a scope. It’s risky since inserting a scope could damage urethra. I hate having this problems and I am only 20. I already had an urinalysis and no sign of infection of bladder or prostate.

[@rafaelthemotivator]

@@KoolAidDinkyTV your problem is your gut. You need to fix you gut and stay away from porn. Masterbating too much can cause pelvic floor problems. I would stop eating meat, dairy, Refined sugars and seed oils. Vegan diets are the best for stomach problems. And stay away from antibiotics... they didn't find any infections, so you don't need them. Try pelvic floor therapy and pelvic floor stretching. KZbin has good pelvic floor stretching, male or female stretching is the same. But pelvic floor therapy will fix you
