You also have to use common sense. Like if you cant sit and you feel pain in your prostate. Your are most likely dealing with a prostate issue. If you have ever had fevers or a general ill feeling, fatigue, frequent urination, dribble. Most likely the prostate.<br />
<br />
From what i read very few prostatitis is pelvic floor related.<br />
<br />
If it feels like a prostate, gives symptoms like a prostate, reacts like a prostate when stimulated etc etc... odds are its your prostate<br />

<br />
Dr edens injections are injected near the prostate not into it. Dr bahn in cali will inject steroids right into the gland. He can even see pockets of infection and judge your illness by looking at blood flow areas in the prostate with his color ultrasound.<br />
<br />
I would say try bahn first, then you will have a better idea. The ultrasound alone may even give you a definite answer. Odds are if you cant sit, its your prostate.

Back to pelvic floor. There is a clinic in cali called the Stanford protocol. At this clinic they evalute pelvic floor issues and teach relaxation for prostatitis.<br />
<br />
If someone were to attend that clinic and get no relief after a few months, that would be a good signal, the prostate is the issue<br />

If some body else besides of Mike, have some experience with the diagnosis of the pelvic floor problems, just let us to know; in my opinion this is a key point in the real diagnosis and possible treatment of this bloody illness (over all for them who are thinking in the LRP).<br />

Yes Christos, I suffer from constipation because of this damn problem. I feel that the prostate swells so much it pushes into my rectum causing a blockage, this in turn worsens hemoroids. Since I have improved after the EDTA treatment and prostate is reduced in size from what it was, my stools have increased in diameter. During a flare up the stools become ribbon like & flat and my hemoroids become worse. It all makes perfect anatomical sense when you look at the relationship of the organs in that area, hence the much repeated description of "golf ball feeling in the rectum" as Radford described in his patient story.<br />
When I use a prostate massager at this point it often reliefs the costipation as I think it decongests the build up of fluids in the gland.

I live in florida. I was very hard for me to find a pt pelvic floor person who does treats male patients. Out of desperation i called a female pt, who then found me a pt who works on men.<br />

As far as tests. She uses the Stanford protocol book for reference {head ache in the pelvis} she checks for so called trigger points and feels for sore areas around the pelvic floor. Checks for spasms and tone.<br />

<br />
After 3 appointments she told me that my pelvic floor was perfect. She had seen many men with pelvic floor prostatitis symptoms. And my pelvic floor was nothing like others she saw with symptoms. . I went for 2 more appointments just to make sure. On the last anointment she stuck a probe with a sensor on it up me. The readings also confirmed everything was ok<br />
<br />
She then told me that i either had a prostate infection or bladder/ ic<br />
<br />
Since my trus revealed a enlarged inflamed prostate, and i am only 28. we then could say it was 99.9 percent my prostate.<br />

just to be even more sure i had a cystocopy . That test revealed all normal. bladder looked ok, but prostate was slightly red Mike can you be more specific…tag:prostatitis.ning.com,2008-08-22:2201951:Comment:11892008-08-22T21:16:56.000ZGermanhttp://prostatitis.ning.com/profile/German
