Bad habits such as frequent urination can lead to prostate hyperplasia, and most diseases are in the early stages of this disease. If you can detect and treat them in a timely manner, you can control your condition as soon as possible. So, what are the early symptoms of prostate hyperplasia?
Early symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia
1. Weak urination, thinning of urinary lines, and dripping urine
Due to the obstruction of the hyperplastic prostate, patients need to use greater force to overcome resistance in urination, which can lead to laborious urination; Hyperplasia of the prostate compresses the urethra and causes the urinary line to become thinner; As the condition progresses, symptoms such as interruption of urination and continuous dripping after urination may also occur.
2. Hematuria
Blood in urine is called hematuria, also known as hematuria. Normally, there are no red blood cells in the urine. In medicine, patients' urine is centrifuged and precipitated, and then examined under a microscope. If there are more than 5 red blood cells in each high-power field of vision, it is called hematuria.
3. Urinary retention
In the late stage patients with severe prostatic hyperplasia, acute urinary retention may occur due to the inability to excrete urine due to cooling, drinking, holding urine for a long time or infection when the obstruction is serious.
4. Frequency of urination
It is an early signal of prostate hyperplasia, especially the increase in the frequency of nocturnal urination, which has more clinical significance. Generally speaking, the number of nocturnal urinations is often parallel to the degree of prostate hyperplasia. Old people who previously did not wake up at night urinated 1-2 times at night, often reflecting the onset of early obstruction, and developed from 2 times per night to 4-5 times or more per night, indicating the development and aggravation of the lesion.
What should patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia pay attention to daily?
1. Pay attention to diet
Prohibit drinking strong alcohol, eat less sweet, sour, and spicy foods, eat more vegetables, soy products, and coarse grains, and consume moderate amounts of eggs, beef, and seed foods such as walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc. Drink more water and urinate to prevent urinary system infections.
2. Not suitable for holding urine
If you feel like urinating, you should urinate immediately. Holding urine is not good for both the bladder and prostate
3. Keep clean
"Male genitals have poor ventilation and are prone to harboring dirt. Local bacteria often take advantage of this situation, which can lead to prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and decreased sexual function. Therefore, persisting in cleaning the perineum is an important part of the care of benign prostatic hyperplasia.". Wash with warm water regularly, which can relieve the tension between muscles and prostate gland, and is very beneficial for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
4. Sex should be controlled
To prevent prostate hyperplasia, attention should be paid from a young age. The key is to have a moderate sexual life, and not indulge or abstain. Frequent sexual activity keeps the prostate in a congestive state for a long time, leading to prostate hyperplasia. Of course, excessive abstinence can cause fullness and discomfort, which is also detrimental to the prostate gland.
5. Avoid squeezing
The position of the prostate is between the bladder and the urethral septum, with the pubic bone that forms the pelvis blocking it in the front and the rectum pressing against it in the back. Therefore, the anatomical position of the prostate is relatively fixed. Some patients' lifestyle can cause compression of the prostate, such as riding a bicycle, where a stiff seat presses against the prostate through the perineum. Especially when riding on bumpy roads for a long time, it can cause congestion and edema of the prostate.
6. Get medical attention as soon as possible
