It produces prostate juice, which is involved in the formation of sperm and gives sperm motility. In a normal state, the prostate is no bigger than a walnut. With inflammation, it can reach a large size and compress the urethra.
For the treatment of prostatitis, antibiotics, antiviral drugs, drugs to increase immunity are usually prescribed. As well as various procedures in the form of laser treatment, prostate massage, ultrasound, hydrotherapy, etc.
