How men protect their prostate

　　In European and American countries, men’s prostate disease The incidence rate is as high as 80%, and prostate cancer has become male of the largest cancer . The prostate is located in the body next to the bladder, urethra, and vas deferens. This physiological structure determines its relationship with urination ejaculation The relationship is extremely close. When the prostate is enlarged and inflamed, not only is urination and ejaculation blocked, but semen quality is also affected, hampering normal fertility. It can be seen that the prostate in men healthy plays an important role!

　　To control smoking, it is best to quit smoking

　　According to surveys, the prevalence of prostate disease in smokers is 1 to 2 times higher than that in non-smokers. Toxic substances such as nicotine, tar, nicotine, and nitrosamines in cigarettes can interfere with the blood vessels that control the blood vessels. nerve function, affecting the blood circulation of the prostate, resulting in prostate congestion. Its toxic substances can also directly poison prostate tissue.

　　2. Eat less spicy food

　　Spicy food is not the direct cause of prostate disease, but alcohol, pepper and other foods can stimulate the prostate and urethra, causing temporary perineal discomfort. It can also cause blood vessels to dilate, causing congestion and edema in the prostate and bladder neck, resulting in reduced prostate resistance.

　　3. Avoid sitting for long periods of time, including riding bicycles, driving motorcycles and cars for long periods of time

　　The position of the prostate determines that men sit on the prostate to a large extent, so men who often sit for long periods of time (including riding bicycles, driving motorcycles and cars for long periods of time) have a heavier burden on the prostate. Sitting slows down blood circulation, especially in the perineum, leading to chronic congestion and stasis of the prostate, accumulation of local metabolites, obstruction of prostate gland ducts, and poor secretion of glandular fluid, leading to chronic prostatitis occurrence.

　　4. Avoid catching cold

　　The prostate has abundant adrenal receptors. When it gets cold, it can easily cause sympathetic nerve excitement, causing the adrenal glands to contract, increasing the pressure in the urethra and affecting urination. Difficulty in urination will also have a negative impact on the prostate.

　　5. Keep bowel movement smooth

　　constipate A large amount of feces accumulates in the patient's rectum, which will aggravate the congestion of the adjacent prostate. At the same time, constipated patients often strain to defecate, which increases abdominal pressure. Compressing the prostate can make the urethra thinner and obstruct urination, which is detrimental to prostate health.

　　6. Avoid holding urine

　　People who often hold back their urine can make the bladder full and swollen, resulting in inability to urinate, causing increased local pressure and poor blood flow, and aggravating the symptoms of prostatic hypertrophy. Holding in urine can overfill the bladder and put pressure on the prostate.
