My PSA slowley rises over the years. A nurse asked me about milking the prostate? Did I have to have it done? (no)

 

What is it like and what is done, does it hurt?

Prostate massages are commonly used for prostatitis. It can be very uncomfortable but will only last an hour or two.

I have prostatitis and one of the methods of treatment was prostate massage. Is it true that this massage can ALSO help with getting better erections?

it shouldn't hurt at all.  and can be very powerful.

If this is prescribed by the Urologist/MD... "The prostate massage"Yell... Is it covered by the man's insurance? Is the MAN given a preference to the "gender" of the masseuse (male-to-male Embarassedwill not happen!)? What is the cost per hour/session whatever? And what is the frequency (average# of sessions) per diagnosis? A couple weeks/months? I know... it depends on how serious the man's condition is... but there must be an average.

The term "MASSAGE" conjurs up thoughts of soft music and scented candles--not so in this case..Yes, it can HURT but drainig did help to clear up prostate infection/prostititus for a while for me. My dad used to go to the urologist once a seek for months and later on I learned this procedure was why-- then there were no drugs to help and TURP was the only option, which he eventually did have. Yes, it is mortifying to be in the Massage paosition for having this but I do think it actualy helped my situation at the itme I had it done.

where can I get instructions on how to milk the prostate and just what is prostate massage? Why is prostate milking preformed?

Hi-- although there are prostate massager "tools" available (see ebay) I don' know anyone who has ever used one of them..My urologist did my massage, or DRAINING (miolking you called it)-- He takes a lubricated, gloved finger and puts it up your backside, like a Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) for a prostate exam only instead of the typically fast feel around exam and then it is over, the finger pushed down with some intense force along the different sides of the prostate that can be felt--This caused prostatic fluid that is possibly trapped to be expelled, (You might drip on the front side out your penis) Sometimes you hold a cup to catch the fluid that is then analyzed for infection or in my case because I had prostate surgery (TURP) retrograde ejaculation happens and the fluid backs up or "ejaculates backwards internally" into your bladder. You then urinate a little and the prostate fluid comes out in that urine for analysis., The "massage" was not excrutiatingly painful and I DID get better after it was over along with a prescription for some antibiotics-- Hope this helps...If you need to have this done, don't hesitate to do it as it could help you. I felt some better by the next day....


Good Luck

I was raised on a farm so you can just guess what I thought about "milking" then a cop 30 years so I'm way out there past left field.

 

So the next question becomes what, where, when and who?


Can someone update me? Can I post more questions on a personal level?

i had a vigorous examination of my prostate this three days ago.  TODAY, i have inflammatory kind of pain in the prostate area or of this gland.  Hot baths did little to ameliorate the pain.  I think, I'll take a round of antiobiotic which I didn't complete after dental work last month.  What's good for the mouth may be good for the lower parts................

The Ducktale;

Of A Feather'd, Duck's Tail

Characters;

Dai-z-duckhill

Duckhillbandit

Dangitduck

Mrs. Duckworth (Urology Nurse)

Ducktor Boneyfeathers (the Urologist)

 

Dangitduck;

Yer waddling funny guy, got yer feathers in a wad or somthin'?

 

Duckhillbandit;

Yep, ol duck featherz not workin' too well, plumbing all webb'd up too - keep rushin' to that pond, ta water the fish, but never seem to get quite empty.

 

Dangitduck;

Ya tell Mrs. Duckworth yet?

 

Duckhillbandit;

Nope, talkin' to my Dai-z tonight, might save me a trip to ol' DR Boneyfeathers - ya kno?

 

Dai-z-duckhill;

Hey babe, how's it waddling?

 

Duckhillbandit;

Got a wad in me waddler... EH?

 

Dai-z-duckhill;

Don't give me that "EH" stuff... you're no Canada Goose - just an ol waddle puss, of a lovable Duckhillbandit. Now tell me... what's got yer downy's in a wad?

 

Duckhillbandit;

Well... got this problem empty'n... keep'n waddling ta the pond, ta water the fish... just never seem ta finish though... and you know, I've not been the best duckler in flight there neither.

 

Dai-z-duckhill;

My friend's dad had that problem, and it's not that hard to fix...

But... YOU... are not going to like it!

Lay down over there and...

 

Duckhillbandit;

HOLY Duck Feathers! -

Hey, you egg bear'n - HEY! -

Watch where yer stickin' that fea t  h  e  r..... Mmmmmm...

Where'd ya learn -- yikers!

Mmmmmm... so that's what that feels like.

Ooooh-hoo-hoo... Butt... it don't make me a Cluck Duck does it?

 

Dai-z-duckhill;

No my inebriated duckman!

Only if you and another winged duckwarrrior, played ducktor... DOWNTHERE!

You wouldn't... and neither would your feather'd friend Dangitduck.

 

Duckhillbandit;

You still shouldn't --- OOOH! --- be doin... mmmm... it's not proper... oh my... for male ducks... oooh... darn that's good... and this will fix my d-state?

 

Dai-z-duckhill;

And if you'r a real good ducky... we can try to make some eggs for the spring hatch... OK?

Now that you're UP to it?

 

Commentator...

Well now... that was an interesting ducktale, of how a lovingly massaged D-State can help prevent a trip to DR Boneyfeathers... who by the way... doesn't approve of such things... he just lost a customer, oops, I mean... patient (for the moment anyway).

 

Lady ducks can feather her manduck's tail, in just such a way, as to really drive the nasties out... but Mr. Duck has got to allow Ms. Duck access... and once in there... Ms. Duck, can find out if Mr. Duck needs to see Ducktor Boney Feathers, or if the D-State is just a little enlarged, and only needs a bit of a healthy, funloving massage.

 

Mrs. Duckworth;

A loving Ms. Duck would try to keep her keeper around longer...

They are so hard to train... ya-kno?

Had prostate pains for years.  Severe prostatitis was diagnosed during a DRE. Nothing helped.  The MD said I wasn't getting enough sex.  However, after a painful virtual colonoscopy due to my  colon health concerns--where a tube is rectally placed--I noticed that all pains had suddenly stopped!  The reading of the virtual colonoscopy was that I had no colon problems, but that I had "stones" in my prostate.  Somehow the painful pressure on the prostate, for the gas tube insertion, ended the pains by possibly rearranging these stones.
