Combined treatment of the patients presenting with bacterial vesiculitis

Ultrasound treatment in combination with laser irradiation of the blood and antibacterial therapy is known to exert strong anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and analgesic effects, stimulate metabolism of sex hormones, and improve spermatogenesis in the patients presenting with chronic bacterial vesiculitis (CBV). This treatment is indicated to the patients with CBV at the stage of latent inflammation, to those recovering after acute vesiculities, and to the patients with chronic prostatovesiculitis at the stage of latent inflammation. This therapeutic modality is contraindicated in the cases of acute vesiculitis, acute prostatitis, acute bleeding hemorrhoids, rectal fissures and tumours, and general contraindications for physiotherapy. The above treatment resulted in the substantial or moderate improvement of clinical condition in 42 (82.4%) of the patients in group 1 and in 5 (50.0%) ones in group 2. During the 6 month follow-up period, remission of CBV was documented in 10 (83.3%) of the patients in group 1 and in 1 (33.3%) patient in group 2.
