#treatment #chronic #prostatitis Long-term treatment with different antibiotics can weaken the immune system and lead to the development of conditions such as fungal infection and changes in the intestinal flora. Moreover, after long-term conventional antibiotic treatments, it is possible that the foci in the prostate may cause re-infection. On the other hand, due to the decreased blood flow in the scar tissue and calcification areas that develop due to chronic inflammation in the gland, it becomes difficult for the antibiotics given systemically within the scope of classical treatment to reach high concentrations in these areas. In such cases, direct injection of antibiotics and cortisone into the inflammatory foci or calcification areas in the gland may be beneficial. In this way, the level of antibiotics in the prostate, It is thousands of times higher than the amount obtained by systemic absorption of the antibiotic. As a matter of fact, it has been reported that a significant improvement is observed in the complaints of the patients with this treatment method.
