When we need to prevent and treat prostatitis in our lives, we must pay attention to preventing factors that may cause or increase prostate congestion. In addition to receiving timely treatment for prostatitis in men, daily care for patients is also important. The following nursing principles for prostatitis must be kept in mind!
Nursing Principles for Prostatitis in Life
"When acute inflammation occurs, prostate massage is not required, and urethral instrument testing is prohibited to prevent the spread of infection.". Prostate massage can make the prostate more congested and aggravate the patient's friends.
2. Pay attention to bed rest, reduce fatigue, keep bowel movements smooth, fast spicy and stimulating foods, reduce the possibility of rectal congestion, drink more water, and promote urination.
3. Eliminate inducing factors, prevent the possibility of colds and other skin infections, avoid perineal damage, and reduce cycling time. In addition, it is also necessary to avoid prolonged sitting at work. It is important to pay attention to the combination of work and rest.
Reduce sexual impulse, avoid sexual intercourse, avoid sexual excitement, and reduce the possibility of prostate congestion. Prostate congestion increases the chance of germs entering the prostate, easily exacerbating the condition.
"For patients who do not need to have children, hot compressions or hot sitz baths can be used on the lower abdomen and perineum to promote blood circulation in the perineum to avoid moisture and cold stimulation of the perineum. Analgesics can be taken if the pain is severe.".
Don't let the "sexual" blessing flush the prostate gland
During sexual life, the prostate gland needs to secrete a large amount of prostate fluid, so it needs to be congested, edema, and muscle contraction. Generally, it takes 24-48 hours for hyperemia and edema to be eliminated. If a man has inappropriate sexual life, such as excessive frequency, excessive use, and frequent repetitive sexual behavior, it is easy to cause prostate disease. "Due to excessive frequency, the sexual organs repeatedly and persistently become congested, and the edema has not yet recovered. If it is allowed to work and become congested, it can cause pathological changes, including, of course, prostate glands.".
Experts remind that the causes of prostate disease involve biological, psychological, and social factors. For example, the most common form of sexual indulgence among young and middle-aged people is inflammation, especially chronic prostatitis.
Measures for preventing and treating prostatitis in the family
● Drink plenty of water
Patients with prostatitis should be hydrated. Drink 2-3 liters of mineral water daily to stimulate urine flow. This prevents retention of urine.
● Moderate exercise
Exercise is also important. Walking is a good exercise, but don't ride a bicycle. The seat of the bicycle can compress the prostate and worsen the pain. Avoid exposure to very cold weather.
● Try water therapy
Hydrotherapy can effectively increase blood circulation in the prostate region. One method is to sit in hot water (the highest temperature you can tolerate) for 15 to 30 minutes, once or twice a day. Another type of hydrotherapy is to spray warm and cold water on the abdomen and pelvic area, alternating between three minutes of heat and one minute of cold. Another way is to sit in hot water, but soak your feet in cold water. After 3 minutes, exchange them. Sit in cold water and soak your feet in hot water for 1 minute.
● Eating pumpkin seeds
Eat 30 grams of pumpkin seeds per day or take pumpkin seed capsules (as directed). Raw pumpkin seeds are rich in zinc, and eating them every day can help with almost all prostate problems.
● Careful sexual behavior
"Currently, if the prostate gland is infected or untimely, sexual behavior can exacerbate the problem and delay recovery.".
Patients with prostatitis actively take daily health care of the prostate and supplement corresponding nutrients, which can help you easily prevent and get rid of the troubles of prostate diseases.
