Most often, the disorders relate to the genital area: impotence, sexual infection, the onset of prostatitis (inflammatory processes in the prostate), stagnation . The latter arises due to a sedentary and sedentary lifestyle, rare sexual relations. Prostate massage has been shown to be effective in treating chronic prostatitis and impotence. The procedure has been practiced in many countries for many years. With professional performance in a medical institution, prostate massage gives positive results.
What is the prostate
The prostate is an organ of the urogenital system of a man, which in certain situations (excitement or stimulation) secretes a transparent color. In addition, prostate fluid is necessary to protect the penis during penetration during intercourse, for nutrition and normal functioning of sperm.
In a healthy state, the prostate is the size of a walnut, the shape may vary due to various factors (with the inflammatory process, prostatitis, tumor formation, prostate adenoma). With various diseases in the prostate gland, a man experiences discomfort in the inguinal region, and overall health worsens.
What functions does
The main function of the prostate is to provide sperm with nutrients, as well as to facilitate their transportation through the genital ducts. The prostate controls the erection and the urethra. An important ability is the secretion of prostate secretion, which, in addition to ensuring the vital functions of spermatozoa, acts as a natural lubricant. It helps without injury and stretch marks to easily penetrate the vagina during sexual intercourse.
The prostate provides control of urination, both the emptying of the bladder and its filling. This is achieved due to the smooth muscles that make up the gland. Also, the prostate is a sex gland whose functions are associated with ejaculation (ejaculation). During this process, prostate secretion is released along with seminal fluid , which makes up approximately 20% of the total ejaculate. Prostate secretion provides sperm motility.
The prostate gland performs a protective function. It interferes with the penetration of microorganisms and pathogenic bacteria through the channel of the urethra into the organs of the bladder, to the testicles. The barrier is ensured by the fact that various components are present in the prostate secretion, which are in constant motion and protect against infection during sexual intercourse.
In violation of the normal functioning of the prostate suffer:
- reproductive function;
- urination process;
- erection;
- ejaculation.
Where is
If we consider the male genital organ, then the prostate is in the gap between the anus and the scrotum. In this area, there is a fold, and if you put your finger on this suture at a distance of two centimeters from the rectal opening and press slightly, then you can feel the roundness of the prostate gland. During intercourse, the prostate is easy to feel: it acquires firmness, as it is filled with ejaculate. After ejaculation, the gland cannot be felt externally.
You can also find the place where the prostate is located in a rectal way. If you insert a finger into the anus by five centimeters, then through the front wall of the rectum you can feel a tubercle up to three centimeters in size. In the diagnosis of prostate diseases, it is the rectal method that is used.
Why do prostate massage
Prostate massage is performed to diagnose prostate diseases. If a rectal examination has been diagnosed with prostatitis, this procedure can be prescribed as a treatment. After all, during a massage, inflammatory juice is secreted from the prostate, along with which pathogens come out. In addition, the procedure improves blood flow to the pelvic organs, so massage is practiced with congestion. The prostate is an organ that consists of many ducts. Massage effects have a beneficial therapeutic effect on the gland, normalize its work and basic functions.
What is the benefit
During the rectal procedure, the doctor has a digital effect on the prostate tissue through the front wall of the rectum. The massage lasts from one to two minutes until four drops of prostate juice stand out. In this case, the patient should not experience severe pain when pressing the prostate, and the excreted fluid should have a transparent or translucent shade. The presence of yellow indicates that a purulent process has begun. In this case, prostate massage is simply necessary.
Its benefits are as follows:
- Improves blood circulation in the pelvic area.
- It removes inflammatory secretion from the prostate gland.
- Helps to improve muscle tone of the genitourinary system.
- Relieves pain.
- Helps increase potency.
- Improves the absorption of drugs.
What diseases are prescribed
When a man turned to a urologist with pain in the perineum, then, to identify the causes of discomfort and diagnosis, in addition to taking blood and urine tests, a prostate massage is prescribed. An inflamed prostate (photo can be found in the article) can be one of the causes of pain in the genitals, in the anus.
- chronic prostatitis;
- loss of potency;
- stagnation.
Contraindications
It is not possible to perform massage as a treatment in all cases. Although this procedure brings many benefits, it should not be performed in the presence of the following diseases:
- acute form of prostatitis;
- BPH;
- the presence of cysts on the prostate gland;
- stones in the ducts of the prostate;
- the presence of hemorrhoids;

If you do not take into account the doctor’s instructions and perform the procedure with exacerbation of prostatitis, a complication may occur in the form of swelling of the prostate tissue, resulting in pain when urinating. The procedure can not be performed at home alone, in no case should it be carried out by a person who does not have experience. So this can lead to sad consequences. Therefore, it is better to undergo timely treatment in a medical institution, to suffer inconvenience and discomfort, than to treat complications after an incorrect procedure.
