Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome

Chronic Prostatitis (CPPS)

Chronic Prostatitis

Chronic prostatitis is also referred to as chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS). It is a men’s health issue defined by pain in the pelvic region, urologic symptoms, and sometimes sexual dysfunction.

Your prostate is important! We may not talk about its functions often, and some men feel shy about asking their healthcare provider for feedback when they suspect they have a problem.

This walnut-shaped little gland is an integral part of your reproductive system. It creates the fluid component of semen and is essential for male fertility.

The prostate also surrounds the urethra where it joins the bladder. So when it becomes inflamed, very uncomfortable urinary and sexual symptoms can result.

Everything from prescription medication to acupuncture have traditionally been offered to reduce prostatitis symptoms in the past. Today there is a safe and effective alternative at Sovereign Male in Toronto.

You don’t have to live with embarrassment or pain because of prostatitis.

At Sovereign Male, our ViaSure erectile dysfunction (ED) treatment by CynoSure is a non-invasive, safe, and drug-free treatment for several sexual health issues that men face.

Traditional pharmaceutical options aren’t for everyone. ViaSure treatment for prostatitis is fast, discreet, and doesn’t require downtime, but this advanced technology is backed by medical experts. And it’s changing lives.

What Causes Prostatitis (CPPS)?

The causes of prostatitis can be difficult to identify, and they may differ in each individual. Researchers suggest that a microorganism may be responsible. Prostatitis may also relate to urine chemicals, an immune system response related to previous urinary tract infections, or pelvic nerve damage.

Acute bacterial prostatitis happens suddenly and is temporary, but the chronic type may develop slowly and last for years.

Other relevant causes can include:

  • Stress-related pelvic muscle tightening
  • Backflow of urine into the prostate ducts
  • Infrequent ejaculation

There are 4 types of prostatitis:

  • Chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS)/prostatitis
  • Acute bacterial prostatitis
  • Chronic bacterial prostatitis
  • Asymptomatic prostatitis

Asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis doesn’t present symptoms, so it is usually diagnosed when testing for urinary tract disorders.

This frustrating condition affects men under the age of 50 most often, but it is the third leading cause of urinary tract issues for men over 50 as well.

Chronic pelvic pain syndrome or prostatitis might feel like:

  • Pain between the scrotum and anus
  • Pain in the lower abdomen
  • Pain in the penis or scrotum
  • Pain in the lower back
  • Pain during or after ejaculation
  • Pain in the urethra after urination
  • Urinary frequency (urinating more than 8 times a day)
  • A weak urine stream

Men should seek immediate medical care for prostatitis symptoms that come on suddenly or are accompanied by a fever or chills.

How Does ViaSure Treat Prostatitis?

The doctors at Sovereign Male specialize in treating men’s wellness and aesthetic concerns. We are very pleased to offer a pain-free, non-surgical, and drug-free way to treat prostatitis symptoms to help men get back to feeling healthy and confident.

The ViaSure system by CynoSure is the only ED treatment system to use SoftWave technology with an applicator designed for comfortable, consistent shockwave energy delivery.

The energy meets the tissue and activates the body’s natural healing response. ViaSure uses a unique reflector design activating angiogenesis (blood vessel formation).

Acoustic shockwave energy stimulates resident stem cells to actively repair and regenerate circulation and penile tissue. The formation of new blood cells increases the proliferation of smooth muscle and tissue elasticity.

The acoustic energy also reduces muscle pain and tissue inflammation, because it triggers the body’s healing process. It’s been useful in sports medicine settings for years to treat soft tissue injuries. However, ViaSure has developed a way to create powerful, yet gentle energy delivery that is safe and comfortable for sensitive, delicate body areas.
