Prostate massage is especially suitable for chronic bacterial prostatitis and chronic bacterial prostatitis, with full, soft and purulent glands. It is not only a diagnosis method, but also a treatment method. Some people think that the therapeutic significance of this therapy can even exceed antibiotics.
The patient takes lateral position, chest and knee position or bending position, the doctor puts on surgical gloves, and the index finger dips in lubricant and slowly enters the anus. At a distance of 4~5 cm from the anal margin, the prostate outside the intestinal wall can be touched through the anterior wall of rectum. Then enter the anus with the palm of your index finger and massage the prostate outside the intestinal wall through the rectal wall. At this time, we pay great attention to the massage technique, which should be gentle and even, with a certain intensity, and not rough, otherwise it will damage the rectal wall and cause bleeding, or damage the prostate and cause bleeding and pain.
On the other hand, the fingers should have a certain direction when massaging. First, massage the left and right sides, from top to bottom, at least 3 to 5 times on each side; Then squeeze from top to bottom along the center of the prostate. After repeated several times, prostatic fluid will drip out along the urethra. Effluent prostatic fluid can also be used for laboratory examination.
The starting point of this therapy is to consider the symptoms of chronic prostatitis, mainly the swelling of purulent exudate in acinus and stroma, which is difficult to drain.
Contraindications of this therapy: massage is forbidden for patients suspected of prostate tuberculosis or tumor. Prostate atrophy and sclerosis should not be massaged. Prostate massage is prohibited during acute attack of chronic prostatitis, so as to avoid the spread of inflammation and even sepsis.
