Men stay up late online to be careful about prostate damage. Nowadays, young people are becoming more and more freewheeling in their lifestyle, and many patented diseases that were originally considered to belong to the elderly are starting to cause problems for young people. Experts say that staying up late online is likely to be the culprit for some college boys suffering from prostate disease.
"Many young people are troubled by prostate diseases due to their unhealthy lifestyle, which in the past was often considered the 'patent' of middle-aged and elderly people." Doctors said that among many consultants, there were even young college students.
A 21 year old sophomore boy called to inquire about the prevention and treatment of prostatitis. The student is actually a patient with prostatitis and has been diagnosed for nearly a year. The student said that due to the extremely severe symptoms such as frequent urination and urgency, he often had to run to the bathroom several times during a class, which made him very distressed. During the consultation, the student admitted that he was a fan of online games.
On the same day, another senior student also called and said that because he often stayed up late on the Internet, he often cannot urinate now, and the waiting time for urination is very long. He suspected that his kidney was broken. And unexplained lower abdominal pain often disturbs him from sleeping. The doctor suspected that he was suffering from prostatitis and suggested that he should have an examination.
Doctors say that with the popularity of the internet, surfing the internet has become a very important pastime for college students. There are not a few who indulge in it.
For them, it is common to stay up late and surf the internet. When they are having fun, they even hold their urine for a long time without going to the bathroom. They don't know that it can easily cause damage to their prostate gland.
Traditionally, prostatitis often occurs in middle-aged and elderly men. However, with the development of the times, some bad living habits, such as excessive drinking, eating spicy food, etc., as well as long sitting, staying up late, cycling, irregular sexual life, and drinking less water, have become the most common causes of prostatitis.
Sitting for a long time is considered the most important predisposing factor for prostate disease. Because sitting for a long time is a continuous stimulation and pressure on the prostate, an organ. People who ride bicycles for a long time are prone to this disease, so prostatitis is also known as "bicycle disease".
In addition, when staying up late and surfing the Internet, smoking, mental excitement, and holding urine are also important factors that can lead to prostate disease. Therefore, among internet addicts, many students often suffer from varying degrees of prostate disease. If attention is not paid to intervention or prevention, the occurrence of chronic prostate disease will become inevitable.
Doctors point out that although about 50% of men are affected by prostatitis at some point in their lives, many patients can heal themselves, and not all patients require antibiotic treatment.
For some patients, on weekdays, as long as attention is paid to abstaining from alcohol, avoiding spicy and stimulating foods, drinking more water, avoiding urination, sitting for a long time, and fatigue, paying attention to keeping warm, strengthening physical exercise, and taking more hot water sitz baths, the condition will be alleviated and improved.
Nowadays, more and more young people are becoming the population with prostate diseases, which should arouse vigilance. Experts say prostate diseases often have a significant impact on the quality of life of young people, and in severe cases can lead to infertility. Therefore, experts advise students to stay away from internet addiction and stay clean.
And proper hygiene habits can also help prevent prostate disease. If you usually try to wear loose clothes, don't wear jeans or tight pants every day, especially in hot weather. Don't force yourself not to go to the bathroom when you feel like having a bowel movement, or sit or ride a bicycle for a long time. It is best not to wash underwear and socks together.
