Many men know that prostate patients avoid sitting for long periods and should exercise, so they often sweat like rain and work hard. Little is known 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 should be adjusted according to your habits, age, and physical conditions. It should not be too intense and should not be used in competitive sports, such as fast running.
In addition to choosing sports based on your own interests and hobbies, you should also consider whether it will exacerbate your illness. Choose mild exercise methods as much as possible, such as walking, jogging, and doing gymnastics. Exercise through the muscles of the abdomen, perineum, and buttocks 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.".
Male health experts believe that finding suitable exercise methods can not only improve disease resistance, but also exercise certain organs that are usually not easily valued, such as the prostate. For men, running is the best way to exercise the prostate.
The prostate is located at the bottom of the pelvic cavity, with the bladder above, the urethra below, and the pubic bone ahead. The rectum behind is very concealed. The upper, lower, left, and right sides of the prostate gland are fixed by many ligaments and fasciae, making its position relatively stable. During running, the muscles at the bottom of the pelvic cavity relax rhythmically, activating the blood of the prostate and surrounding organs and tissues. At the same time, the visceral organs of the abdominal cavity regularly and forcefully impact the prostate, equivalent to massaging the prostate.
The blood circulation inside the prostate enters the internal iliac vein through many small veins, with a high resistance to reflux. Severe exercise can cause prostate congestion and edema. Therefore, running cannot overemphasize fast running. It is necessary to control the speed, time, and distance of running based on one's own weight, physical strength, and health status, and it is advisable to run at a slow or medium speed. When exercising, you should pay attention to cooperating with deep and slow breathing, swinging your arms, and striding forward to achieve better results.
