The so-called occupational disease refers to when the intensity and duration of occupational hazards on the human body exceed a certain limit, the human body cannot compensate for the functional or organic pathological changes caused by them, resulting in corresponding clinical symptoms and affecting labor ability. This type of disease is commonly referred to as occupational disease. And now prostatitis is also promoted to an occupational disease for various reasons.
Prostatitis favors drivers
Prostatitis is a common disease in adult males, with symptoms that vary from patient to patient. However, chronic prostatitis can persist and cannot be cured, while acute prostatitis can cause severe symptoms, causing physical and mental pain and inconvenience in life and work. Common pathogens that can cause prostatitis include bacteria, chlamydia trachomatis, ureaplasma urealyticum, trichomonas, and fungi. Statistics in recent years show that a significant proportion of prostatitis patients are car drivers, especially long-distance passenger, freight, and taxi drivers.
Prostatitis, especially chronic prostatitis, is often difficult to treat. In addition, due to the characteristics of their work, drivers are a key group prone to the disease, and they often cannot maintain regular, regular, and continuous comprehensive treatment. Therefore, prevention of this disease is even more important.
White-collar men are a high-risk group of prostatitis
Sitting office white-collar workers wear suits and shoes all day long, bathe every day, and pay attention to personal hygiene. But why does prostatitis particularly favor white-collar men? This is due to the work-life pattern of white-collar men who must be sedentary. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "sitting too long is harmful to the body." For white-collar workers who work from nine to five, it is common to sit for eight hours or more a day. Sitting too long, coupled with a lack of physical activity, impedes the circulation of qi and blood in white-collar workers, which can easily lead to male genital congestion, causing prostate congestion, swelling, inflammation, and then prostatitis. Sitting on a sofa or soft chair with the buttocks deeply sunk in the sofa, the padding can wrap and compress the scrotum, making the venous flow impeded, blocking the blood microcirculation of the entire reproductive system of men, slowing down metabolism, and leading to the impeded excretion of various harmful substances produced by metabolism, which can accumulate in the prostate, leading to the occurrence of sterile prostate and the aggravation of various bacterial prostatitis.
Secondly, due to the increasingly fierce social competition and the accelerated pace of life, the working pressure of the white-collar class is increasing. Excessive stress, mental fatigue, and accumulation over time can not only lead to insomnia and dreaminess, migraines, hypertension, peptic ulcers, and ischemic heart disease, but also lead to decreased prostate function, which can lead to annoying prostatitis.
Male teachers can also become infected with prostatitis
A doctor from a male hospital said that prostatitis does not come to your door for no reason, it must be related to personal bad habits. "Sitting and standing for a long time can cause the prostate gland to be in an abnormal state, which can lead to disease over time.". Like some young and middle-aged teachers, who undertake heavy teaching tasks, they have to attend classes during the day and manage students. At night, they also accompany students to self-study, prepare lessons, correct homework, and sometimes stay up late to write teaching papers. In addition, lack of exercise leads to poor local microcirculation, which can lead to chronic prostatitis over time. So in a sense, a sedentary man actually doesn't sit on a chair, but sits on his prostate!
Shareholders can also provoke prostatitis
Zhang Heqing, a male reproductive health expert, said, "With the popularity of the stock market, more and more people are coming to the prostate department of the hospital to see prostatitis." Although these patients are not all caused by stock trading, they are completely likely to cause diseases such as prostatitis due to sitting in front of the computer for too long in stock trading, holding urine, and being nervous. Even some patients, "constantly urging me to read faster, say that the stock market is about to open, and I need to hurry back to the stock market." This high level of nervousness is very harmful to health, and is often a trigger for certain types of diseases.
