When the hot summer comes, the temperature gradually rises, and people are complaining about the weather being too hot, some patients with prostate diseases have found that the usual annoying symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, and pain in urination have significantly reduced. Because of this, some patients believe that this is a sign that the disease is beginning to improve or even recover;
While some people have doubts about this "improvement", they no longer need treatment because their symptoms have eased, so some people stop taking drugs or discontinue treatment without authorization. The "improvement" experienced by patients with prostate disease in the summer is a false appearance. If they relax their vigilance and stop treatment at this time, it will be extremely detrimental to their health.
Reasons for the improvement of prostatitis in summer
Summer has arrived, and the clinical symptoms of chronic prostatitis have alleviated, which is a false impression caused by the weather. In summer, when the weather is hot, the secretion of sweat glands increases, and the frequency of urination naturally decreases. In addition, a warm climate can relax the muscles of the lesion, expand blood vessels, and accelerate blood circulation. This can alleviate the edema and congestion of the prostate, and temporarily smooth the urethra. However, once the weather turns cool, it will immediately return to its original state.
"Golden Time" for Treating Prostatitis in Summer
Summer is actually the golden season for treatment. Summer is a good time to treat prostatitis due to high temperatures, reduced symptoms, accelerated blood circulation and metabolism, and strong cell regeneration. The blood vessels and choroids of the human body are also in an expanded state, and drugs can easily reach the lesion through the prostate capsule, ensuring that the drug acts at a high concentration on the inflammatory site;
In addition, at this time, the glandular duct is relatively unobstructed, and bacteria can be quickly discharged from the prostate in a timely manner to avoid secondary blockage and infection of the prostate;
Therefore, the treatment of prostate diseases in summer should not be lax, and patients should seize the opportunity to relieve symptoms, seize treatment, and uproot the disease; Otherwise, the illness will be delayed, the good opportunity for treatment will be missed, and the consequences will be even more serious. In the future, treatment will achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Summer is coming, and some patients with prostate diseases suddenly find that the annoying symptoms of frequent urination and urgency seem to have decreased a lot. Especially for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, who usually urinate nearly ten times during the night, it is now almost half as much as before. Therefore, some patients speculate that their illness has begun to improve, or even healed without treatment, and accordingly stop taking medication or discontinue treatment.
Once symptoms are significantly reduced, many patients will always ask: Can I stop taking medication and stop treating? Some people stop taking drugs and discontinue treatment without even consulting a doctor.
"There are many such patients, often dragging on until they feel 'relapse', and the symptoms have significantly worsened." This type of patient feels like they are experiencing a "relapse", but in fact many people are experiencing a "false improvement", with the underlying cause of the disease remaining unresolved. By the time they re perceive the symptoms themselves, treatment has been delayed for some time, and the condition has often worsened, leading to the abandonment of previous achievements and the need to start all over again.
Why is prostatitis easy to recur repeatedly every winter?
1、 The climate changes from warm to cold, and the temperature difference between day and night increases. A cold can cause sympathetic nerve excitation, gland muscle, and blood vessels to contract, leading to poor excretion of prostate fluid, and aggravating symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination.
2、 After catching a cold, people's immune system decreases, and various bacteria are more likely to invade the body.
How to Prevent Prostatitis in Winter
1. Eat more apples and vegetables. Most male friends do not like to eat fruits, which is one of the causes of prostatitis. The vitamins and fiber contained in fruits and vegetables that are beneficial to the male prostate are also very beneficial to the endocrine and metabolism of men. Prostate fluid contains a certain amount of antibacterial components. Further research has confirmed that this antibacterial material is a zinc containing protein, the main component of which is zinc, and there is a large amount of zinc in apples.
2. Quit smoking, avoid alcohol, and stay up late. Preventing prostatitis, quitting smoking, and avoiding alcohol are almost universally known, but some men cannot do so. However, it is unnecessary to elaborate on the harmful substances contained in tobacco and alcohol, which are not beneficial to the prostate.
3. Drink plenty of water and urinate frequently. Prostatitis and the male excretory system have an important relationship. The higher the concentration of urine, the greater the bacteria and pollution, which is prone to infection of the prostate and excretory system, leading to the phenomenon of prostatitis and urethritis.
4. Regular inspection. Regular male physical examination or andrology examination can ensure the timely and early detection of various diseases in men, and is also very beneficial to the health of other parts of the body.
Editor's suggestion
It is recommended that male friends with prostatitis go to the hospital for systematic examination as soon as possible, and actively cooperate with the treatment according to the doctor's treatment plan after the doctor's diagnosis;
Patients with prostatitis should avoid drinking too much, stay up late, eat less spicy food, live a reasonable life, and actively treat them. Don't let prostatitis affect this beautiful life!
