Prostatitis is a common disease in urology, which can cause difficulty in urination, pain, and significantly affect a man's normal reproductive and urinary functions. The health of the prostate is closely related to some daily habits. Let's learn about the pitfalls of prostatitis and how to prevent and take care of it.

These things should be avoided!

1. Drinking alcohol and smoking

Men who drink alcohol frequently have a 3 times higher risk of developing prostate diseases compared to ordinary men. Smoking can also cause adverse stimulation to the nerves around the prostate, leading to prolonged congestion and increasing the likelihood of disease occurrence.

2、Not drinking enough water

When the body cells are in a long-term state of dehydration, the body fluids become concentrated, and the concentrated urine can cause damage to the organs along the urinary tract, with the prostate being the most vulnerable.

3、Frequently holding urine

Holding urine weakens the flushing effect of urine on the urethra, which can accelerate bacterial growth. Some bacteria may even travel up the urethra into the bladder, eventually leading to prostatitis. In addition, holding urine can cause excessive bladder distension in men, making it easier to develop benign prostatic hyperplasia.

4、Favoring Spicy Foods

Spicy foods can cause vasodilation in the prostate and bladder neck, leading to reduced resistance of the prostate and triggering acute prostatitis, or worsening the symptoms of chronic prostatitis.

5、Prolonged Sitting

Prolonged sitting can directly compress the prostate, leading to poor blood circulation and congestion of the gland, which may block the prostate ducts. People who sit for long periods also tend to forget to urinate, and incomplete urination may result in urine reflux, causing prostatitis.

6、Improper warmth protection

Cold weather can increase the excitability of the sympathetic nervous system, causing the prostate gland to contract and blood vessels to dilate, leading to chronic congestion and thus worsening the accumulation of prostatic fluid, which may trigger the onset of prostate diseases.

Protecting the "life gland," these habits should be maintained

Men who want to protect their "life gland" need to be proactive and prepare thoroughly for all aspects of health care.

1、Drink more water. Many men do not have the habit of drinking water actively, and this can be detrimental to prostate health in the long run. When you drink more water, your urine output will also increase, and the urine can help flush out the prostate, removing some bacteria from within the prostate. Men who already have prostate issues should also drink more water, which can aid in treatment and reduce the risk of bacterial infection of the prostate.

2、Don't hold in urine. When your bladder is full and you feel the urge to urinate, you should urinate promptly. Holding in urine can have a negative impact on the prostate. When you need to take a long car ride or go somewhere without a restroom, make sure to empty your bladder before getting into the car. Avoid the embarrassment of holding urine while driving.

3、Rub the soles of your feet. Rubbing the soles of your feet is a simple method that can help with prostate health. First, warm up your hands, then use your right palm to rub the sole of your left foot, and then do it in the opposite direction. Perform this 50 times on each side, and do it once in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Consistently doing this can be very beneficial for prostate care.

4、Massage the lower back and abdomen. Remove your outer clothing and lie flat on your back on the bed. Use both hands to massage the sides of the waist, and push the hands forcefully towards the navel and lower abdomen. Then, use your thumbs to press and massage the central line below the navel. Let your fingers follow the legs to perform pushing, wiping, and rubbing movements down to the perineum. Then, bring your hands back to the waist area without leaving the abdomen, and continue massaging in this manner.
