protatitis


Definition

It is a condition characterized by pain, swelling and inflammation of the prostate gland (prostate) that is located below the bladder, in front of the rectum. The urethra and seminal ducts of man, come together and pass through it. This gland produces a component of semen, fluid in which sperm move through the penis on ejaculation. It occurs most often in men between 20 and 30 years of age and often is a chronic problem.

Causes
The most common cause of this inflammatory disease is a bacterial infection, usually gonorrhea or another sexually transmitted disease. Other agencies are also transmitted sexually and chlamydia can also cause it. Less common is their development as a complication of mumps in young and adult.

In many cases, however, may not be signs of infection. Inflammation in these cases is due to an accumulation of seminal substances in the prostate gland and pipes that pass through it. Another possible cause is a sudden increase or decrease in sexual activity, requiring the gland in an effort to produce or store seminal fluid.
