The prostatitis treatment depends on the root cause of the problem. If the disease is developed due to bacterial prostate gland infection i.e. if the person has acute or chronic bacterial prostatitis, usually antibiotics are given as the primary treatment measures which have to be taken continuously for fourteen days. However, antibiotics do not work when the cause of prostate inflammation is non-bacterial.
Nonbacterial prostatitis is the most common and least understood form. Symptoms come and go without warning, but it is a painful, chronic condition found in men of all ages. No infecting organism is found in most urine or other fluids, but semen and other fluids from the prostrate contain cells that are produced to fight infections. Typically, this form is diagnosed after a urine culture or prostate secretion culture does not produce a positive result, but there are symptoms present without a bacterial organism that causes them.
There are several natural treatment for nonbacterial prostatitis that are found to be effective in relieving many of the symptoms of this condition.
Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill is widely considered as a good treatment for prostatitis. This herbal medicine has the effect to alleviate inflammation and relieve painful urination.
One of the best ways of treating prostatitis is making some serious lifestyle changes, especially in one's diet. Foods that are good for prostate health include: cherries, raspberries, red grapes, citrus fruits, and broccoli. Green leafy vegetables are good for health. Tomatoes, watermelons, red grapefruit, papaya and red berries are great sources of lycopene, which also helps support prostate health.
Home remedies for prostatitis also include avoiding alcohol, caffeine, and spicy foods and following good hygiene practices. Spicy good such as pepper, curry are not allowed. Do not eat too much chocolate, coffee, coke, fried and baked food, which go against eliminating inflammation in prostate.
