After winter, there are many people who are afraid of the cold and unwilling to wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. In their opinion, holding urine does not have much impact on their bodies. Experts point out that in low-temperature climate conditions, holding urine and falling asleep is one of the important reasons for the high incidence of prostate diseases.
In recent days, the treatment rate of prostate disease patients has been continuously increasing. Experts say that every winter is the peak season for prostate disease, and in cold climates, the prostate is prone to "getting sick". However, some patients are actually caused by being afraid of the cold and unwilling to wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, or by being confined to bed and not getting up.
Prostatitis caused by holding urine in bed and bedding
A few days ago, Li from Hongqiao District experienced symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain after experiencing low back pain. As a last resort, he came to the urology department for examination and was informed that he had prostatitis. The doctor found that the reason for Li's illness was actually due to the cold weather, lingering on the warm bed and holding urine until dawn, leading to the onset of prostatitis.
Experts say that recently, there have been many patients like Mr. Li, and holding urine to sleep on cold days is one of the important reasons for the high incidence of prostatitis. Drinking less water during the day or holding urine for a long time at night can slow down metabolism and worsen the symptoms of prostatitis.
Experts say that the prostate is a more delicate organ for men. It protects the human reproductive system, secretes antibacterial factors, and protects itself and the urinary tract. However, the prostate is located at the crossroads between the urinary system, reproductive system and rectum, with a poor growth environment and at the end of the body. It is often affected by surrounding diseases, such as direct invasion of bacteria, and invasion of other bacteria through blood or lymph tissue. These pathogens deposit in the prostate and persist for a long time. Once immune function decreases, they will develop into various prostate diseases.
In a low-temperature environment, the excitability of the sympathetic nervous system in the prostate gland is significantly enhanced, causing contraction of the prostate gland, causing chronic congestion, and increasing pressure in the urethra. Holding urine will make the bladder overfill, compress the prostate, aggravate the accumulation of prostatic fluid, lead to the onset of prostate disease, and make patients appear frequent urination, urgency, nocturnal urination, pain in urination, perineum, testicular pain and other symptoms.
Proper prevention and treatment of prostate diseases in winter
Many men neglect their own health care, resulting in numerous prostate problems. Therefore, male friends must understand the typical symptoms of prostatitis. Once symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and discomfort in the perineum are found, they should seek treatment from a male doctor in a timely manner. For patients with chronic prostatitis, standardized, effective and timely treatment is particularly important, and clear diagnosis and personalized treatment are the most critical, otherwise it is easy to lead to prolonged treatment, recurrent attacks, and other complications of the urinary system.
The key to treating prostatitis is to "diagnose and treat according to different types". Experts identify the types of prostate diseases through precise testing, and then develop appropriate treatment methods based on differences to achieve rapid recovery.
Reminder: Many prostate problems are actually related to lifestyle habits. Experts remind male friends to avoid eating spicy, spicy, or stimulating foods in daily life, quit smoking and drinking, and reduce triggering factors; Sit down soon, do not hold urine, and avoid catching a cold; In winter, it is necessary to strengthen the warmth of the prostate area, strengthen physical exercise, drink more water, and promote the discharge of prostate secretions by urinating and flushing the urethra,
