So perhaps its on its way, but I think it must be passed by the FDA?

NOWHARD

Hi Well a little more searching and found this.
http://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT02152683
Its there in the USA and being tested.
So you may be able to try it.

Good Luck

Looks like if you had your Prostate surgery before you are not eligible for this study. There are doctors now that are doing shock wave therapy with stem cells combined. One doctor is charging 8K for this therapy. It is not FDA approved. Kind of rolling the dice.

Hi Shockwave and chemo, there is work being done on this for the prostate, but its only in a small way, there is some stuff to read if you search for it, but what is above is just for ED.

Hi Found you guys this its from, http://www.harvardhealthcontent.com/Spe ... e=Section2
So as you will see its not new, so from whats here, looks like it could help.
Prostatitis

Shock wave therapy may improve prostatitis symptoms
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), a nonsurgical, noninvasive treatment for kidney stones and orthopedic pain, may be a safe and effective treatment option for patients with chronic nonbacterial prostatitis. That's the conclusion of a study by Austrian researchers published in European Urology.
During ESWT, a clinician delivers a series of sound-wave pulses to the pain site with a handheld transducer. Results of a preliminary feasibility study indicated that the device, when applied to the perineum, could relieve the pain of chronic nonbacterial prostatitis, also known as chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS), without side effects. Researchers then conducted a randomized controlled trial to further assess ESWT.
Researchers randomly assigned 60 men who had been suffering from pelvic pain for at least three months to receive either once-weekly ESWT or a sham treatment for four weeks. The men completed follow-up questionnaires one week, one month, and three months after treatment. Those who received ESWT reported significant improvement in pain, erectile and urinary function, and overall quality of life. Conversely, those who received the sham treatment reported stable or worsening symptoms. None of the men reported any side effects during treatment or follow-up.
Given the lack of side effects, ease of use, and the potential for repeated administration, ESWT may be an option for men with CPPS. However, the treatment is not currently FDA-approved for the condition.

Hi When you got your break/fracture did you get help straight away or did you leave it? IT is something that needs attention ASAP, the longer its left the chances of recovery tends not to happen.
Have you thought of having an implant?
