When it comes to the dangers of constipation, the first thing everyone thinks about may be the impact on intestinal health. In fact, for men, frequent constipation can even damage the prostate.
"A fire at the gate of the city will bring disaster to the fish in the pond." Dry stool will cause compression on the prostate, making local blood circulation impeded. Over time, it can easily cause inflammation of the prostate. In addition, when constipation patients defecate, they need to increase abdominal pressure to promote the excretion of stool, which can further cause pressure on the prostate, causing discomfort in urination, and sometimes even "dripping white", that is, outflow of prostate fluid.
Constipated men often have dry stools due to staying up late, sedentary, lack of exercise, and a spicy and greasy diet. These triggers can also cause symptoms of the prostate. Therefore, constipation is an alarm for these people, reminding them to pay attention to their own health and protect the health of the prostate.
Three tips for improving constipation:
1. Develop good bowel habits
(1) When is the best time to defecate?
Sleep at 10 pm, and various hormones begin to secrete at 2 pm, entering shallow sleep. From 5 to 6 o'clock in the morning, the intestine wakes up first, which is the time of the strongest colon activity. After a period of colon activity, defecating when we wake up is the most appropriate time.
(2) How long does a bowel movement take to become normal?
It is best not to defecate for more than 15 minutes each time. A normal bowel movement can definitely be completed within 15 minutes, but the longer it takes, the more unable it becomes, increasing anxiety and creating a vicious cycle. And some people don't go to the bathroom without feeling like they're defecating. Sometimes they don't feel like it for two or three days, which is wrong. Over time, it will lose the sensation of defecation, and in addition, it will stay in the body for too long, which is more likely to cause constipation. The normal defecation cycle is 24-48 hours.
2. Change bad eating habits
Drink more water, especially honey water, drink less alcohol, eat more vegetables and fruits, drink more yogurt, and avoid eating spicy food.
3. Moderate exercise
Moderate exercise has many benefits. Exercise can enhance our heart and lung function, relieve tension and anxiety, increase energy consumption, help lose weight, and thus help alleviate constipation.
