Is prostate enlargement serious?

Prostate diseases are closely related to our endocrine system. When we suffer from prostatitis, we will feel uncomfortable in all parts of the body, and sometimes it may cause constipation, sexual life, decreased function, etc. Moreover, when the prostate enlarges, the patient will feel pain in his genitals. So is prostate enlargement serious?

The main cause of prostate enlargement is related to endocrine disorders. Alcoholism, constipation, vascular sclerosis, chronic prostatitis and other factors can cause the prostate to gradually enlarge. The causes of prostate enlargement include prostate congestion, infection by pathogenic microorganisms, autoimmune factors, allergic factors, and psychological factors. If the prostate is not regular and not treated thoroughly in time, it is easy to be uncured and relapse. The structure and position of the prostate are special. The outer layer has a lipid capsule, which is a barrier for drugs. It is difficult for general drugs to enter. Therefore, simple drug treatment is often not effective. With some physical treatment, the effect is more optimistic. The diet should be light and less stimulating, avoid smoking and drinking, have a regular sex life, exercise appropriately, avoid unclean sexual behavior, etc. It is recommended that you go to a professional andrology hospital for relevant examinations in time to clarify the cause of the disease and actively cooperate with the treatment according to the cause.

Prostatic hypertrophy is also called prostatic hyperplasia. The symptoms are mainly manifested in two groups, one is bladder irritation symptoms; the other is obstructive symptoms caused by the obstruction of the urinary tract by the hypertrophic prostate. Bladder irritation symptoms: frequent urination, urgency, increased nocturia and urgency incontinence. Frequent urination is an early sign of prostatic hyperplasia, especially the increase in nocturia is more clinically significant. The disease has three main characteristics: enlarged prostate volume; bladder outlet obstruction; lower urinary tract symptoms such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and urgency. If symptoms are found, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. To avoid delaying the disease and affecting health.

reason

1. First of all, prostatitis has not been completely cured, or urethritis, cystitis, seminal vesicle inflammation, etc., cause the prostate tissue to become congested and proliferate.

2. Excessive sexual life and masturbation will cause congestion of sexual organs, and prolonged congestion of prostate tissue will also cause prostate hyperplasia.

3. In addition, frequent alcoholism or long-term drinking, and eating spicy and other irritating foods can stimulate prostate hyperplasia.

4. Lack of physical exercise can cause hardening of the arteries and poor blood circulation in the prostate, which can also lead to this disease.

5. Bad mood will lead to stagnation of qi in the liver, poor circulation of qi and blood, causing blood stasis in the body, which will cause obstruction of prostate circulation and lead to hyperplasia.

6. Holding urine for too long and drinking less water will cause the urine to become more concentrated and the frequency of urination to decrease, leading to the accumulation of toxins in the urine. The harmful substances in the urine will damage the prostate.

7. Unreasonable dietary structure and unhealthy eating habits are also important factors that induce prostate disease.

8. Prostatic hyperplasia in the elderly is mostly caused by the decline of body functions and imbalance of hormone regulation, which belongs to the category of "kidney deficiency" in traditional Chinese medicine.
