Bacterial prostatitis is when pain and inflammation in the prostate can be positively confirmed with an infection using a blood or urine test. Bacterial prostatitis is frequently (but not always) caused by a sexually transmitted disease. It is also possible for a man with bacterial prostatitis to infect his sexual partners. Many times the female partner of a man with bacterial prostatitis has a similar infection in her vagina. The treatment for bacterial prostatitis is the same as for other forms of prostatitis, with the difference being that the man will have to take an antibiotic in order to kill the infection while the prostate heals. This antibiotic is generally given as a series of oral antibiotic pills, but doctors in some cases inject the patient with a large dose of an antibiotic to speed the process. The Dr.Erector stimulator is not a substitute for antibiotics, but it can be used in conjunction with them to help along the other aspects of prostate trouble. The man can find less discomfort in the treatment plan and regain greater use of his sexuality by using the Dr.Erector electrical stimulator for a few minutes a day. The Dr.Erector stimulator can have a similar effect to a session of expensive and embarrassing prostate massage by a medical practitioner.
