Always be alert to the "seven fears" of men's prostate

According to data, the prevalence of prostate disease in middle-aged and elderly people is very high: the prevalence in developed countries such as Europe and the United States is as high as over 80%, and in my country it is also over 50%. Relevant experts believe that the onset of prostate disease is related to many daily human factors. In summary, there are "seven fears" of prostate.

One is being addicted to smoking . According to surveys, the prevalence of prostate diseases in smokers is 1-2 times higher than that in non-smokers. This is because tobacco contains more than 1,200 compounds, most of which are harmful to the human body, mainly nicotine, cyanide and carbon monoxide. The more you smoke, the more harm your prostate will suffer.

Second, beware of eating improperly . Frequent consumption of spicy and acidic foods and strong alcohol can cause blood vessels to dilate and cause prostate congestion. Long-term alcoholics' prostate is constantly stimulated by alcohol, which aggravates prostate congestion and causes inflammation or worsens the development of the original condition.

The third fear is cold . The prostate has abundant adrenergic receptors. When it is cold, it easily causes sympathetic nerve excitement, leading to gland contraction, increased urethral pressure, and affecting urination. Difficult urination will have an adverse effect on the prostate. The vicious cycle can cause prostate disease.

Fourth, beware of improper sex . The rate of acute prostatitis is as high as 89.7% for those who have frequent sexual intercourse in a short period of time. On the contrary, those with strong sexual desire cannot excrete normally for some reason, which causes a large amount of prostate secretion to "storage". Over time, it leads to excessive expansion and congestion of the prostate, which can also cause inflammation. In addition, ejaculation outside the body, interrupted sexual intercourse, etc., can also cause congestion and swelling of the prostate and cause inflammation.

The fifth thing to be afraid of is constipation. People with constipation have a lot of feces accumulated in their rectum, which will aggravate the congestion of the prostate gland nearby. At the same time, people with constipation often have large bowel movements, which increases abdominal pressure. Pressure on the prostate gland can narrow the urethra and obstruct urination, which is not good for the health of the prostate gland.

Sixth, fear of squeezing . Sitting for a long time or riding a bicycle frequently can squeeze the prostate for a long time, leading to poor local blood circulation. Especially when riding a bicycle, the seat and the perineum produce friction, stimulating the upper urethra and prostate, etc., causing chronic hyperplasia, hardening, swelling, and even inflammation of the subcutaneous tissue of the genitals, thereby compressing the urethra and prostate, which can easily cause prostate diseases and dysuria.

Seventh, be afraid of holding urine . Frequent artificial holding of urine can cause the bladder to fill and swell, leading to weak urination, increased local pressure and poor blood flow, and aggravating the symptoms of prostatic hypertrophy.
