• International Prostate Symptoms Score (IPSS)• Urine tests• Rectal examination• Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test
Treatment• Finasteride or dutasteride• Alpha blockers• Surgery
Management • Eggs• Milk• Soya• Fish• Cheese• Chicken
Prostatitis
Prostatitis is a general term that refers to inflammation (swelling) of the prostate gland, which is caused by an infection.
Etiology
• A bacterial infection is only sometimes responsible.• In many cases of chronic (long-term) prostatitis, doctors
can't find any infection in the prostate gland, In these cases, the cause is poorly understood.
• Chronic prostatitis is thought to be caused by a number of suggested factors, including partial blockage of the flow of urine and underlying problems with the immune system, pelvic floor or nervous system.
Symptoms:
• Pain in the pelvis, genitals, lower back and buttocks• Pain when urinating• Frequent need to urinate• Difficulty urinating, such as problems starting or 'stop-
start' urination• Pain when ejaculating, which may contribute to erectile
dysfunction• Discomfort in the perineal area (the area between the
scrotum and the anus)
Diagnosis
• Acute Prostatitis• Rectal examination. • Chronic Prostatitis• Blood tests.• Ultrasound scan or ct scan• Cytoscope
Acute Prostatitis• Antibiotic tablets • Paracetamol and/or ibuprofen• Codeine
Chronic Prostatitis• Antibiotics• Alpha blockers
Treatment
