A busy white-collar worker usually spends 24 hours in this way: 8-10 hours sitting in front of a computer, 2 hours sitting on the sofa watching TV, 3 hours sitting in various social occasions chatting and chatting... At the end of the day, most of the time is sitting. Zhang Zhichao, a physician at the Men's Health Center, believes that prolonged sitting and immobility can affect male sexual function. Even when sitting, the temperature, softness, and hardness of the seat are also important.
Moderate heating and cooling
The prostate is very sensitive to temperature, and cold stimulation can cause pelvic floor muscle spasms and induce prostatitis. On the other hand, the testicles are afraid of heat, and when the temperature is above 35 degrees Celsius, it will reduce the quality of sperm, thereby affecting human reproductive function. Therefore, when men take outdoor walks and exercise in winter, it is best to bring a cushion with them and not sit directly on the cold bench when tired. In addition, it is best for men to avoid hot places such as saunas and showers.
Moderate softness and hardness
A too hard stool can increase the degree of compression on pelvic organs, which over time can lead to abnormal pelvic floor muscle function, prostate congestion, and ultimately prostatitis. Therefore, men who frequently ride bicycles should adjust the height of the seat and use a cushion to reduce the hardness of the seat to avoid prostate pressure.
A sofa that is too soft will cause the entire buttocks of men to sink in, which also increases the squeezing force; Moreover, the scrotum is surrounded and compressed, unable to regulate temperature normally, resulting in an increase in testicular temperature and an impact on reproductive function. So if the sofa at home is too soft, it's best to put on a slightly harder cushion.
Moreover, no matter what, sitting for a long time is not good. Therefore, it is best for men like taxi drivers and office workers to get up every 40 minutes and engage in activities for 8-10 minutes. Especially taxi drivers, who not only sit for a long time, but also have their seats heated up by the engine, sitting in the car all the time is not good for the prostate and testicles. Therefore, drivers can consider stopping the car for every few guests, breathing fresh air, and moving their joints.
