Elderly men can squat down after urination
Relevant data show that the probability of rectal cancer, bladder cancer cancer and prostate cancer of men who often urinate in squatting position is half lower than that of those who urinate in standing position. This is because squatting urination can cause a series of muscle movements and related reflexes in the human body, which can accelerate the elimination of intestinal waste, shorten the retention time of feces in the intestine, and reduce the absorption of carcinogens in the intestine. In addition, elderly men should also squat to urinate in order to avoid voiding syncope when they wake up at night to urinate.
Urinate once an hour
The incidence rate of bladder cancer is proportional to the time of urine retention in the bladder. This is because there is a carcinogenic chemical in the urine, which will destroy the muscle fibers of the bladder and cause it to become cancerous.
Experts suggest that people should increase the frequency of urination regardless of whether they want to urinate or not. The most scientific method is to urinate once an hour.
Squeeze the perineum after urinating
The male urethra is long, and it is easy to urinate unclean, resulting in urinary tract infection. So, how can we drain the residual urine? Yang Yushu introduced two methods: ① After urination, you can squeeze your finger on the perineum between the scrotum and anus. This can not only discharge the residual urine in the bladder, but also have certain benefits for the treatment of chronic prostatitis. ② Do more anal lifting exercises at ordinary times to enhance the contractility of perineal muscles and urethral muscles, so as to minimize the residual urine in the bladder.
Don't sit down immediately after urination
The study of male physiological structure shows that after male urination, the internal and external sphincters of the urethra will close, making the urethra of the prostate form a closed cavity. If you sit down immediately at this time, it will increase the pressure in the closed cavity, cause residual urine reflux, and cause prostatitis. Therefore, men should stand for 3-5 minutes after urinating and then sit down.
