Generally, young and middle-aged people are easily troubled by prostatitis. Prostatitis refers to acute and chronic inflammation caused by prostate specific and non specific infections. Acute prostatitis is characterized by frequent urination, urgency, and pain in urination, as well as swelling and pain in the perineum, radiating to the lumbosacral region or thigh. In severe cases, symptoms such as high fever and general pain can occur. The symptoms of chronic prostatitis vary in severity, with mild to asymptomatic symptoms. However, most patients can experience pain in the perineum or rectum, and may also experience symptoms such as discomfort with urination.
Elderly men are often accompanied by hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the prostate, while preventing prostate cancer. Prostatic hyperplasia refers to the gradual enlargement of the prostate gland, which exerts pressure on the urethra and bladder outlet. It is clinically manifested as frequent urination, urgency, increased nocturnal urination, and laborious urination, and can lead to complications such as urinary system infections, bladder stones, and hematuria. Prostate cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in male prostate tissue and is the result of abnormal and disorderly growth of prostate acinar cells. Currently, it is recognized that the simplest method for prostate cancer screening is a combination of digital prostate rectal examination and serum PSA testing. Generally, men should begin prostate cancer screening at the age of 50.
In order to reduce the trouble caused by the prostate, men should learn to "conserve" it. First of all, drink more water without holding back urine. Once the bladder is filled and there is urgency to urinate, urinate immediately to expel waste. Secondly, regular ejaculation is necessary. Prostate fluid is a component of semen, and regular discharge can ensure its health. In addition, sexual activity should not be too frequent, otherwise it can cause the prostate to remain congested for a long time, causing prostate enlargement. Thirdly, pay attention to hygiene. "Men's perineum secretes more sweat and is often in a moist state, so this area is more prone to dirt and dirt. It is recommended to carefully clean it to avoid bacterial infection leading to the onset of prostatitis.". Choose cotton underwear with good breathability in life. In addition, men with chronic prostatitis take a hot water sitz bath for 20 to 30 minutes (around 42 ℃) every night to relieve tension between the muscles and prostate gland of the whole body, thereby alleviating symptoms. Finally, it is necessary to reduce spicy and stimulating food, reduce alcohol consumption, and eat more vegetables and fruits to provide a good living condition for the prostate.
