What should I pay attention to when Chinese medicine cures prostatitis?

The prostate is one of the most important parts of a man. Many men are full of energy in their daily lives. However, once there is a problem with the prostate, even the most energetic men will become listless. Therefore, for prostate diseases, the most important thing is to do a good job of daily health care. What men need to pay attention to are the "Five Precepts".

Five "taboos" for prostate disease health care

Quitting Guilt

Experts say that prostatitis caused by mycoplasma and chlamydia is now commonly called non-gonococcal prostatitis. Mycoplasma and chlamydia infections of the prostate are mostly caused by unclean sexual behavior. Such patients are often prone to guilt for the following reasons: 1. Patients worry about being discriminated against by society and affecting family harmony; 2. Many such patients cannot afford the huge medical expenses; 3. It is difficult to cure, prone to recurrence, and prone to retrograde infection.

Expert guidance: Guilt is common in the psychology of patients with non-gonococcal prostatitis. This is understandable, but long-term guilt will undoubtedly cause harm to the patient's body and mind that is no less than the disease itself, and it will also form a huge obstacle to recovery. It is indeed a big warning for patients with prostatitis.

Stop drinking

Experts point out that drinking alcohol can cause congestion and edema of the prostate and bladder neck, which can easily induce acute urinary retention. After drinking, alcohol is slowly absorbed and enters the blood and flows to all parts of the body. The prostate is an organ that is very sensitive to alcohol. When it is stimulated by alcohol, it becomes excited, and local capillaries rapidly expand and become congested, increasing the exudation of fluid between cell tissues and causing cell edema. The higher the alcohol concentration in the blood, the more severe the prostate edema.

Therefore, alcohol is very harmful to the prostate. The congested and edematous prostate will occupy more urethral space, causing difficulty in urination. When the pressure is severe, acute urinary retention and inability to urinate may even occur. The swollen prostate can also compress and pull the nerve fiber endings distributed in the prostate capsule and around the prostate, causing swelling and soreness in the lower abdomen and perineum, and itchy and painful testicles.

Avoid sitting for long periods of time

Lao Zhao worked in the factory's veteran cadres department before retirement, so playing mahjong with veteran cadres became part of his job. Over time, he became more and more fond of the "Battle of Zhucheng". He played more after retirement, but the good times did not last long. Two years ago, Lao Zhao was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis and mild prostate hyperplasia. He had frequent and urgent urination and swollen perineum every two or three days. Especially when he sat for a long time, the symptoms worsened, which made Lao Zhao very annoyed.

Experts say that the human body generally has 4-5 liters of blood, but only about one-third of it actually flows in the blood vessels, and the rest is "stored" in the liver, spleen, and subperitoneal omentum for regulation. Therefore, when people sit, blood tends to stagnate in the pelvic cavity. If you sit for a long time, it will cause poor circulation of the pelvic organs, congestion and edema, and produce aseptic inflammation. The prostate is the body's accessory gland organ, located exactly in the center of the bottom of the pelvic cavity, which is exactly where blood is most likely to stagnate. Therefore, sitting for a long time is an important cause of prostate inflammation, especially if you already have prostatitis, you should pay more attention not to sit for a long time. Office workers, drivers, long-term cyclists, and mahjong friends like Lao Zhao should pay close attention. Sitting for a long time is another taboo for patients with prostate disease.

Quit abusing kidney-tonifying and impotence-enhancing drugs

As the saying goes, "A man who takes a supplement will be full of energy and vitality." However, it is necessary to distinguish the symptoms when strengthening the yang and nourishing the kidneys. A problem with the prostate will certainly lead to a decline in a man's sexual function, but if you ignore the prostate disease and just strengthen the yang and nourish the kidneys, it will only be counterproductive. After taking supplements again and again, a good man has become a "patchwork". Experts point out that the prostate is a male's accessory gland, involved in sexual activities and closely related to sexual life. Prostate patients are often accompanied by sexual dysfunction. Some patients often have low back pain and decreased libido as the first symptoms in the early stage. As the course of the disease progresses, the prostate gland undergoes pathological changes due to long-term inflammatory stimulation and congestion, and the prostate gland secretion is impaired, and the patient will experience persistent impotence.

Most of the aphrodisiac and kidney-tonifying drugs are warm and hot, and are hard and dry in nature. Warmness promotes heat, while dryness hurts the yin. Therefore, excessive use of aphrodisiac and kidney-tonifying drugs will cause dampness and heat to accumulate, disrupt the dynamic balance of life, overdraw health, and cause the disease to become more complicated and stubborn over time. This is like a sick horse pulling a heavy cart. If you whip it and ask it to run fast, it will soon fall down. At present, the trend of aphrodisiac and kidney-tonifying drugs is very common in China. The series of health problems caused by this have caused many men to lose their virility and ultimately led to a series of Chinese-style divorce tragedies.

Abstain from sexual intercourse

Experts point out that the prostate is the largest accessory gland in the human body. When a man has a problem with his prostate, the first thing he thinks of is sex, as if treating the disease means abstinence. However, he does not know that he is making a mistake that is like controlling a flood by simply "blocking" it - prostate disease is like a flood in terms of sex life, and to control it, it requires not only "blocking" but also "draining". In the process of communicating with patients with prostatitis, more than 80% of the patients will ask the question "Should I prohibit sex during medication treatment?" when they leave. Although many patients are concerned about the relationship between treatment and sex life, they are still unclear about how to deal with it correctly. They often completely prohibit sex during treatment, resulting in the abnormal phenomenon of "prostate to the left, wife to the right".

Experts advise that it is biased for patients with chronic prostatitis to strictly abstain from or simply not have sex. Because patients do not have sex, the inflammatory prostate secretions in the glands of patients cannot be discharged in time, which increases the burden on the prostate and is an important pathogenic factor in the formation of prostate stones. This will not only not help the treatment of chronic prostatitis, but will also cause the opposite effect. As long as it is not excessive, it is very beneficial for patients with prostatitis to have a proper sex life to cooperate with the treatment.

No matter what time it is, men should not hold their urine, because there are many bacteria in the lower part of the male urethra, and timely urination can expel these bacteria from the body. If you always hold your urine, these bacteria will invade the prostate and other parts, causing prostate diseases. It should also be noted that men should not get drunk, whether they are socializing or gathering with friends, because drunkenness can also make men more susceptible to prostate diseases.
