Prostate disease is a common disease in men, and the prostate is an important accessory gonad for men. Once the disease occurs, it will endanger the health of the entire reproductive system of men. Experts recommend that men over the age of 50 should not forget to check their prostate during their physical examination.
Most men are very taboo about their reproductive and urinary system diseases, and there are situations where they avoid medical treatment. There are also some male patients who do not know how to handle andrology diseases and blindly treat themselves, leading to worsening of the condition. These are all incorrect practices. Prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic lesions and other andrological diseases have been called "killer of male health" because of the rising incidence rate in recent years. The main patients of this disease are middle-aged and elderly people. They can be found as early as possible, and the scientific and standardized treatment has a good effect. At present, many cities in China have entered the aging period, the proportion of elderly men is rising, and the incidence rate of prostate disease is also growing, about 50% of men over 50 years old will suffer from this disease, and 80% of men over 80 years old will suffer from this disease. Therefore, regular inspections can prevent accidents before they occur. If not treated promptly or improperly, when the current condition of columnar hyperplasia develops to a certain extent, it may lead to hydronephrosis, renal failure, and even the possibility of pathological changes.
Experts recommend that men over the age of 50 receive a digital rectal examination every year when they undergo a physical examination. If there are hard lumps, they need to undergo a relevant antigen test (PSA) in order to diagnose them. Early detection of prostate lesions in patients with surgery or comprehensive treatment, the effect is good.
Early detection and early treatment of prostate diseases
For prostate diseases, the policy of early prevention, early detection, and early treatment is advocated. There are various methods for treating prostate hypertrophy, including hormone therapy, drug therapy, physical therapy, and so on. These methods can alleviate urination difficulties, but they cannot reduce the size of the enlarged mass. The only way to achieve a radical cure is to surgically remove the internal mass. This type of surgery is very safe, and even elderly people over the age of 80 are not at risk, except for heart and kidney failure, gastric ulcers, and worsening general conditions. And the time required for a complete cure is not long, as long as about one month. "However, patients should seek treatment from a regular medical institution, and should not undergo surgery at illegal medical institutions advertised in" small advertisements ", as that would pose a high risk.".
Pay attention to dietary health to prevent prostate diseases
Diseases of the prostate also often originate in middle age. "When you first experience difficulty urinating, frequent urination, urgency, or bloating of the lower abdomen, it may be a problem with the urinary system.". At this point, it is important to seek medical attention in a timely manner, as once it becomes a chronic disease, treatment becomes even more difficult. Experts also remind such patients that paying attention to diet can also effectively prevent male prostate disease. Eat less stimulating foods such as chilies in your daily diet; Try to drink less alcohol and have a moderate sexual life; Reduce the occurrence of constipation. Every morning, you should drink a glass of warm boiled water on an empty stomach. It can prevent constipation, dilute blood, and have a mechanical flushing effect on the urethra, without concentrating residual urine and forming stones. Middle-aged and elderly people should avoid consuming too much animal fat. Taking moderate amounts of vitamins A, C, and E, green tea, and soy products can effectively prevent prostate disease.
