Recently, a new study conducted by American scientists over a period of 14 years and surveyed 47620 men showed that actively participating in physical exercise can help delay the spread of prostate cancer cells. The sports participants participated in include walking, running, swimming, playing tennis, cycling, and gymnastics. The study also found that men over the age of 65 who participate in frequent physical activity have a 70% lower risk of developing prostate cancer than the general population. "Men over the age of 65 who engage in active exercise for more than three hours per week are significantly less likely to develop advanced prostate cancer," the study said
Physical exercise can improve disease resistance, improve blood circulation, make prostate fluid secretion more vigorous, and help the inflammation of the prostate subside. It is beneficial for alleviating the clinical symptoms of chronic prostatitis, especially waist soreness, pain and discomfort in the perineum and lower abdomen, as well as neurological disorders and neurasthenia. In addition, taking more exercise can also deliver drugs to the prostate gland more quickly, thereby improving the efficacy of drugs.
It should be noted that vigorous exercise can also cause congestion and edema of the prostate, exacerbating symptoms of discomfort. Therefore, the amount and intensity of exercise should be moderate, and it is best to persist for about half an hour every day. The intensity of exercise depends on your habits and age. It should not be too intense and should not be used in competitive sports, such as running fast.
In addition to choosing sports based on your own interests and hobbies, you should also consider whether factors that can exacerbate the disease. Try to choose mild sports, such as walking, jogging, and gymnastics. By exercising the muscles of the abdomen, perineum, and buttocks, you can promote blood and lymphatic circulation in the prostate region, which is conducive to the regression and absorption of local inflammation.
"Long periods of cross riding, such as cycling, motorcycles, horseback riding, and racing, can directly compress the perineum, urethra, and prostate gland, potentially causing local congestion of the prostate and obstructing the discharge of prostate fluid, exacerbating the condition.".
In addition to participating in appropriate sports to promote the regression of inflammation, patients should actively cooperate with doctors for comprehensive treatment.
