When it comes to the harmfulness of constipation, the first thing you think about may be the impact on intestinal health. In fact, for men, frequent constipation will damage the prostate.
Constipation is harmful to the prostate
The prostate is close to the rectum and separated by a small amount of loose connective tissue. This feature makes it convenient for doctors to conduct digital examination of the prostate. The prostate can be palpated not far from the anus; But it also lays a hidden danger for the prostate health of constipation. People with constipation tend to have dry stools, hard lumps and high rectal temperature.
"The fire at the gate of the city will bring disaster to the fish in the pond". The dry stool will squeeze the prostate and block the local blood circulation, which will easily cause inflammation of the prostate after a long time. In addition, when constipation patients defecate, they need to increase the abdominal pressure to promote the defecation, which will further cause pressure on the prostate, causing discomfort in urination, and sometimes even "white", that is, the outflow of prostate fluid.
Constipated men often have dry stools due to staying up late, sedentary, lack of exercise, spicy and greasy diet, and these incentives can also cause symptoms of prostate. Therefore, constipation is an alarm for these people, reminding them to pay attention to their own health and protect prostate health.
