Paracentral lobular syndrome is a problem that many men face. Pathology is accompanied by very unpleasant symptoms, in particular, urinary incontinence and impaired sexual function. The first signs begin to appear already at a young, and sometimes teenage, age. That is why men are looking for additional information about this pathology.
Why does paracentral lobule syndrome develop? What symptoms should I look for? What can a doctor do? Is there an effective treatment for paracentral lobes of the brain? What forecasts can be counted on? The answers to these questions are worth a look.
What is a disease?
Paracentral lobe syndrome (SPDS) is an ailment that is accompanied by damage to some cortical centers of the brain. As you know, the paracentral lobule is the middle part of the superior frontal gyrus. It is here that the functioning of the organs of the urogenital system is partially regulated.
It is worth noting that this is a fairly common pathology. Due to disruption of the cortical centers and spinal innervation, there is a change in the processes of ejaculation, there are problems with urination.
The main causes of the development of pathology
Unfortunately, the causes of the syndrome are not fully understood. It is believed that damage to paracentral lobules often occurs during intrauterine development. Birth trauma to the baby’s head can lead to the same result. Unfortunately, the symptoms of the disease do not appear immediately, so it is not possible to diagnose the disease immediately after birth.
Occasionally, paracentral lobule syndrome develops already in childhood or adulthood. Damage to the cerebral cortex in some cases occurs as a result of traumatic brain injuries, various inflammatory and infectious diseases of the central nervous system. On the other hand, you need to understand that this happens extremely rarely and is rather an exception to the rule.
Problems urinating against the background of the syndrome
If we talk about the signs of the syndrome of paracentral lobules, then first of all it is worth mentioning the problems with urination. Enuresis is the most striking and common symptom of this syndrome.
In this case, we are talking about frequent urges to urinate. Men go to the toilet more often and often wake up at night. At the same time, their daily urine volume sometimes increases. In some cases, the urge to urinate becomes imperative - they cannot be controlled, the man feels the need to empty himself immediately.
It is worth noting that these problems are not always come to the fore. Sometimes enuresis is expressed so little that patients do not pay attention to it and do not consider the appearance of the symptom as something alarming.
Reproductive system disorders
According to statistics, paracentral lobule syndrome is one of the most common causes of the development of sexopathological disorders.
Due to disruption of the cortical centers, problems with ejaculation appear. In this case, we are talking about too fast and frequent ejaculation. Ejaculation occurs too quickly both during intercourse and during masturbation, even if there are several sexual discharge in a row.
According to statistics, the first ejaculations in boys with a similar pathology appear several years earlier than in their peers.
It is worth noting that sometimes these disorders are not too pronounced. Many men, as well as their partners, perceive too fast ejaculation as the norm. With experience, the duration of sexual intercourse increases. That is why people with problems rarely go to the doctor.
But sometimes ejaculation too fast becomes a source of psychological and emotional complexes. Some men are very sensitive to their problems with ejaculation, which leads to the development of erectile dysfunction of psychological origin.
Neurological symptoms
Since the disease is associated with impaired functioning of certain parts of the brain, the appearance of neurological symptoms is also possible.
For example, some expansion of standard reflexogenic zones is sometimes observed. The manifestations of Achilles reflexes are changing. Sometimes there is a selective decrease in plantar reflexes. Anisocoria, a neurological symptom that is characterized by different sizes of the pupils, is possible (for example, the pupil of the left eye can respond to light normally, and the pupil of the other can expand or contract too much).
Diagnosis of the disease
In fact, the diagnosis of paracentral lobule syndrome is often fraught with difficulty, since not all symptoms are clearly expressed. The main ones are enuresis and premature ejaculation, but not all men with similar problems seek help from a doctor.
For diagnosis, it is very important to collect information for anamnesis. For example, it is important to know at what age the first ejaculations began to occur in the patient, whether he had any problems in his sexual life. The man is also referred for consultation with a psychotherapist - it is important to find out if there are any psychological disorders. In addition, blood tests for hormones, a brain examination, ultrasound of the pelvic organs are performed - this makes it possible to differentiate SPDS from other diseases that are accompanied by the same symptoms.
In most cases, an accurate diagnosis can be made only after the first chloroethyl blockade of the lumbosacral region - with this syndrome, the result can be seen almost immediately after the first procedure. Based on the data obtained, a therapy regimen is compiled.
Paracentral lobular syndrome: treatment
Only after diagnosis will the doctor be able to draw up a therapy regimen. How to treat paracentral lobule syndrome? In this case, simple chloroethyl blockade is most effective.
To do this, the doctor acts on the lumbosacral region. The skin is sprayed with chloroethyl until a very specific white crust forms - a sign of intradermal hardening. After this, the area of the sacrum is rubbed with firm movements with your hand until the whitened skin warms up and acquires a reddish tint.
The procedure is repeated at intervals of 2, and sometimes 3 days. In most cases, about 5-10 repeated procedures are required - the treatment sometimes lasts more than two weeks. If such treatment did not have the desired effect, then after a month's break, the course is repeated again, but now the blockades are supplemented by taking large doses of Thioridazine. According to statistics, such treatment is effective in 77% of cases.
Paracentral lobular syndrome: how to treat at home?
Is it possible to do something on my own? In fact, folk remedies to help cope with the syndrome of paracentral lobules do not exist. Nevertheless, with the help of decoctions and other home-made medicines, one can significantly increase potency and improve the quality of sexual life.
- A third of a teaspoon of hoofed roots (previously crushed) is poured with a glass of hot water, set on fire, brought to a boil and boiled for another 10 minutes. After this, the broth should be infused. Then we filter it - the medicine is ready for use. Drinking is recommended for a tablespoon 5-6 times a day.
- Periwinkle grass also has a positive effect on the reproductive system. A tablespoon of dry raw material is poured into a glass of water and kept in a water bath for 20 minutes. A strained broth should be consumed once a day for ten drops. The duration of treatment is three days.
Is there prevention
Unfortunately, there is no specific prevention of the development of the syndrome of paracentral lobes of the brain. Since in most cases the disruption of the functioning of the nervous structures occurs during embryonic development, it is recommended that women in position should carefully monitor their own health and pregnancy. It is also important to prevent child injuries associated with the birth process. Brain infections should be avoided, and existing diseases on time and properly treated.
If there are violations, you should consult a doctor. This is best done as quickly as possible, since the main symptoms of the disease, as well as the emotional discomfort associated with their appearance, can be easily removed with a few simple procedures.
Forecasts for Men
It is immediately worth noting that paracentral lobular syndrome is considered one of the mildest disorders of the sexual sphere. As already mentioned, many men (as well as their partners) do not even notice the presence of problems. Those symptoms that disturb them from time to time appear irregularly. As a rule, conservative therapy helps to get rid of problems with erection and urination. Traditional medicine also helps to normalize sexual function. That is why the prognosis for patients in the overwhelming majority of cases is favorable.
