Compared to women, men often do not pay much attention to physical maintenance, but for male patients with prostatitis, correct maintenance can have a positive effect on the early recovery of prostatitis. So how should prostatitis patients maintain themselves? How can prostatitis be treated comprehensively and effectively? Experts provided us with detailed answers.
What kind of male disease is prostatitis?
Prostatitis is one of the common adult male diseases, and patients can experience various pain and discomfort, difficulty urinating, and even systemic symptoms. Prostatitis can cause serious harm to patients, affecting their sexual function and fertility, leading to urinary tract infections and endocrine disorders in men, affecting their overall health.
Common prostate care tips
1. A good mood is also a good medicine. When men feel relaxed and relaxed, prostate symptoms will be relieved, so men should try to maintain a relaxed and happy mood;
2. Don't hold your urine unless you have to. Because male urination can cause significant irritation to the bladder and prostate, office men and male friends who often drive should pay special attention;
3. Moderately moderate sexual activity. During sexual activity, men's prostate may experience repeated hyperemia, which can lead to or worsen prostatitis. Proper abstinence can give the prostate some time to recover and repair, but abstinence is also detrimental to prostate maintenance;
4. Drink more water at ordinary times. This is because high concentrations of urine can stimulate the prostate, and drinking more water can dilute urine and reduce irritation to the prostate;
5. Take a warm bath regularly. Warm water bathing can alleviate the tension of men's muscles and prostate gland, alleviate the uncomfortable symptoms of inflammation, but experts advise men not to bathe at too high a temperature;
6. Keep your private area clean and dry. Many men's private parts have been warm and humid for a long time, which can easily cause or worsen prostatitis due to bacteria. Therefore, male friends should regularly clean their private parts and wear loose and soft underwear to keep them clean and dry;
7. Don't let the prostate catch cold. "A cold in the prostate can lead to increased sympathetic nerve stimulation, causing an increase in internal pressure in the urethra and causing reflux. Therefore, men should avoid sitting on a cool stone slab.";
8. Avoid vaginal friction. Prostatitis patients who suffer from excessive friction on the perineum are likely to worsen their condition, so experts suggest that patients with prostatitis should avoid sitting or cycling for long periods of time;
For male friends, if they are diagnosed with prostate disease, it is undoubtedly a very painful thing for them. In fact, many diseases can be prevented as long as we change into correct lifestyle habits! Come and have a look together.
1. Intake of legumes
The rate of prostate cancer deaths among Japanese men is five times lower than among American men, indicating that their diet is mostly low in fat and high in fiber. Bean food is very common in Japanese food. Tofu, soybean powder and soybean milk are all foods that can effectively prevent prostate cancer.
2. Eat more carrots
A new study has found that regular consumption of brightly colored vegetables can reduce the risk of prostate cancer in men by nearly a fifth, especially carrots. The study, published in the European Journal of Nutrition, showed that men who consumed carrots at least three times a week were 18% less likely to develop prostate cancer.
3. Eat apples
In our daily diet, apples can have a good protective effect on the prostate gland. Apple has always been a healthy fruit strongly recommended by nutritionists. This may be due to zinc in apples. "In patients with chronic prostatitis, the zinc content in prostate fluid is significantly lower than in normal individuals. Eating apples to supplement zinc not only has no side effects, but also is beneficial to the human body's absorption and utilization.". Generally, 1-2 apples per day can help treat prostatitis.
4. Eat more tomatoes
In a study of 470000 men, researchers found that those who ate the most cooked tomato products had the lowest rate of prostate cancer. The so-called "maximum" means 10 servings a week. It sounds like a lot, but a 1/2 cup tomato sauce is just one serving, and perhaps you pour far more than one serving on spaghetti.
5. Zinc supplementation
The content of zinc in the male prostate is higher than that in any organ of the body, and such a high content is related to the antibacterial and bactericidal ability of the prostate. When the zinc content decreases, the antibacterial ability of the prostate decreases, and the defense ability against inflammation also decreases, leading to prostate infections. Therefore, it is recommended that men receive a balanced daily zinc supplement to treat prostate hypertrophy and prevent prostate cancer.
6. Massage the navel
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that there are Qihai, Guanyuan, and Zhongji points around the navel, which are the places of the elixir field. This massage has many benefits for prostate health.
Self massage method for prostate gland: lie on your back, straighten your left foot, place your left hand on Shenque acupoint (navel), rotate with your index, middle, and ring fingers, and then rotate and massage with your right three fingers on the perineal acupoint for a total of 100 times. After finishing, change hands and do the same action. In addition, a slight massage after urination can promote bladder emptying and reduce residual urine volume; Massaging the Huiyin acupoint can accelerate blood circulation at the perineum and play a role in reducing swelling, inflammation, and pain.
