1. Pay attention to exercise and drink water appropriately. In winter, the amount of water excreted from the body's surface decreases, while the amount of water excreted from the kidneys increases. The bladder load increases, and urination becomes more frequent. If patients with prostatitis undergo moderate exercise and drink appropriate water, it can cause water to be excreted from the sweat glands, reduce bladder pressure, and alleviate symptoms.
2. Pay attention to keeping warm to prevent colds. In cold weather, the secretion of adrenaline in the body increases to increase body temperature and combat cold. However, adrenaline can also make the prostate contract more tightly, causing bladder outlet obstruction. For patients with prostatitis, urination is more difficult, and even urine retention occurs. Cold epidemics often occur in winter. Some cold medicines contain ingredients such as acetylcholine and epinephrine, which can inhibit bladder contraction, making the bladder weak or increasing the likelihood of bladder outlet obstruction. Therefore, prevention of colds and rational selection of cold drugs are also issues that patients with chronic prostatitis must pay attention to.

3. Timely "decompression" to prevent recurrence. In the cold winter, many people reduce outdoor activities and become addicted to mahjong, poker, etc. They play for hours, even if they are unwilling to urinate. At this time, the bladder will be held too large, resulting in a decrease in bladder contractility; Moreover, holding urine has also been proven to cause an increase in adrenaline, causing obstruction of the bladder outlet, making urination more difficult; Increased pressure in the bladder may increase the likelihood of urine returning to the prostate, leading to an aggravation of the condition.
4. Drink in moderation and beware of extreme joy leading to sorrow. Drinking freely can lead to a significant increase in alcohol in the body, resulting in diuretic effects, rapid filling of urine in the bladder, and alcohol reducing the sensation of bladder inflation. Once urination is difficult, it can be extremely painful. Therefore, drinking alcohol must be moderate.
