As the heat dissipates, it will be cool in the morning and evening. The high incidence of prostatitis has arrived in autumn. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the chill became severe, and we had more patients.
According to our treatment data, more than half of the patients with chronic prostatitis will have significantly worse symptoms in autumn. The patients under treatment will also be affected by the season. Many patients with improved symptoms will also become difficult to treat because of the cooler weather, and the course of treatment will become longer. This clearly tells us that the large temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn has a close relationship with the patient's condition and treatment. Please pay attention to the daily health care and nursing of the prostate.
The chill in autumn will increase the excitability of human sympathetic nerve, and make the prostate gland contract, the gland tube and blood vessel expand, causing chronic congestion, increasing the internal pressure of male urethra, and causing reflux in severe cases. Changes in the condition of the urethra will aggravate the accumulation of prostatic fluid, leading to frequent symptoms of prostate disease: frequent urination, urgency, pain in urination, perineal and testicular pain, etc. Therefore, when autumn comes, all patients should pay attention to the change of symptoms and pay attention to the following problems:
Drink more water, urinate frequently and do not hold urine in autumn
Many patients suffer from discomfort in urination due to gland stimulation during urination. After the weather turns cold, they reduce the amount of drinking water. In fact, this is exactly the taboo of prostate patients. Drinking more water and urinating more is one of the important health care methods for prostate patients. Light urine can "flush" the urethra, prevent the reproduction of pathogenic bacteria and bacteria in the urethra, and help maintain the health of the prostate. At the same time, more urination helps to expel bad metabolites from the body, which is conducive to rehabilitation. However, reducing drinking water will reduce the concentration of urine and the number of urination, which will have adverse effects on the prostate and other organs (such as kidney, bladder, etc.).
Moreover, the patients with prostate disease will make the bladder overfilled and oppress the prostate. For the patients with prostate disease, it is easy to cause urine reflux and harm the high organs (kidney and ureter).
Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and avoid spicy food
The intake of trace elements can enhance the anti-infective effect of the prostate. Prostate patients should eat more soy products such as coarse flour, tofu, beef, mutton, fish, lean meat, peanuts, sesame seeds, dairy products, etc. When autumn comes, there should be more coarse grains, nuts, vegetable oil, fresh vegetables and fruits on the table to supplement various antioxidants.
Alcohol, chili and other irritant ingredients are very irritating to the prostate and urethra. Drinking alcohol or eating spicy and stimulating food for prostate patients will cause discomfort in the perineum, and will also cause congestion and edema in the prostate and bladder neck, resulting in reduced prostate resistance. Therefore, abstaining from spicy food is not only to be done in autumn, but also to be insisted on.
Exercise frequently and don't sit for long
Autumn is deep, and the cold weather makes many people unwilling to go out, especially some middle-aged and elderly patients, who are afraid of the cold and prefer to sit at home. It is important to remember that sitting for a long time will put a heavy burden on the prostate. Many patients said that sitting for a long time makes them very uncomfortable. Therefore, in autumn, we should try to avoid sitting for a long time, instead, we should exercise properly. The movement of abdomen, thigh and buttocks can massage the prostate and promote the blood circulation and lymph circulation of the prostate. Jogging or brisk walking for 20-30 minutes every day has a health effect on the prostate.
Keep warm and prevent colds
The prostate likes to be warm, and local warming can reduce the contraction of muscle tissue, and restore the hyperemia and edema of the prostate. Keeping warm in autumn is an important factor to prevent colds in autumn. Colds can aggravate the symptoms of prostate disease, so we must reduce the chance of catching colds. Pay attention to adding clothes and quilts in time, and pay special attention to keeping the lower abdomen warm when sleeping at night.
