How to effectively relieve prostate congestion

For male friends, they should pay attention to reproductive health issues in their lives. If prostate congestion occurs, they should understand the correct treatment methods, pay attention to prevent cold, and avoid smoking, drinking, and various spicy foods.

1. Prevent cold

Being cold can increase the sympathetic nerve activity of the prostate, leading to increased pressure in the urethra, and the prostate duct also contracts, hindering excretion, and prostate congestion due to prostatic fluid accumulation. Taking a warm bath can relieve muscle and prostate tension and relieve symptoms.

2. Absolutely avoid alcohol

Drinking alcohol can cause congestion and edema of the prostate and bladder neck, thus inducing urinary retention. Drinking tea in daily life can prevent and improve urinary tract inflammation. Foods such as Eucommia ulmoides, Cordyceps sinensis, Lycium barbarum, and Cordyceps sinensis have the effects of anti-inflammatory, sterilization, clearing away dampness and heat, nourishing the kidney and replenishing qi, and nourishing qi and blood.

3. Eat less spicy food

Caffeine and spicy foods can not only cause congestion of the sexual organs, but also aggravate the symptoms of hemorrhoids and constipation, compress the prostate, and aggravate urination difficulties.

4. Do not hold your urine

Holding urine will cause the bladder to be overfilled, weaken the tension of the bladder detrusor muscle, make urination difficult, and easily induce acute urinary retention, causing urine to reflux into the prostate. Therefore, it is important to urinate as soon as you have urine and develop the habit of urinating in time.

5. Don’t overwork

Fatigue and mental stress increase the chance of prostate congestion. When life stress is reduced, prostate symptoms usually ease.

6. Avoid sitting and riding for long periods of time

Sitting for long periods of time and riding a bicycle for long periods of time can cause congestion of the prostate gland, leading to difficulty urinating. Pour appropriate amounts of warm water into a Yikangtang sitz bath for steaming, and daily cultural and sports activities can help alleviate symptoms.

7. Drink plenty of water

Insufficient water intake reduces the flushing effect of urination on the urinary tract. High-concentration urine will stimulate the prostate gland, causing congestion of prostate tissue and non-specific infection. Drinking more water can dilute urine, so in summer, it is appropriate to reduce water intake at night to avoid excessive bladder filling after sleep, and drink more water during the day.
