We know that prostatitis has always been a disease that plagues most men, but which male groups are at high risk for prostatitis? What should we do to further avoid the occurrence of prostatitis?
There are 5 categories of high-risk prostate populations:
1. Men aged ≥ 45 years are one of the high-risk groups for prostatitis
According to a survey, the probability of suffering from prostatitis is increasing with age. Therefore, men after the age of about 45 must be alert to various signals sent out by their own bodies.
2. People with a family genetic history are also prone to prostatitis
Heredity is something that any disease cannot avoid, and prostatitis is no exception. If there are male relatives in the family who have prostatitis, it may increase their risk of developing prostatitis.
3. Drivers are also one of the high-risk groups for prostatitis
Due to the different nature of work, drivers often have to stay in the car for work and maintain a sitting posture for a long time. This will undoubtedly increase the incidence of prostatitis, especially the occurrence of chronic prostatitis.
4. White-collar men in offices are also prone to prostatitis
We also know white-collar men who sit in offices, often sitting in front of a computer for hours, and do not exercise much. This will often leave the prostate in a state of congestion and swelling. Then it can trigger the occurrence of prostatitis.
5. Male teachers are also a high-risk group for prostatitis
We know that teachers often need to maintain a standing posture to teach, and in addition to attending classes, they also need to manage the class, prepare for classes, write papers, and so on. They hardly have much time for outdoor exercise. This kind of work makes the prostate gland of male teachers abnormal, and the local circulation is not smooth, which can lead to the onset of prostatitis.
What are the initial symptoms of prostatitis?
1. Sexual and reproductive symptoms: When rising in the morning or defecating, a small amount of thin, milky white, watery, or viscous secretion flows out of the urethral orifice, or it is accompanied by ejaculation, premature ejaculation, blood semen, ejaculation disorders, and decreased libido.
2. Mental symptoms: This is also one of the early symptoms of prostatitis, including mental fatigue, mental depression, memory loss, and decreased self-confidence.
3. Pain or discomfort symptoms: Mainly manifested in the perineum, testis, lower abdomen, posterior urethra, lumbosacral region, anus, groin, penis, glans, and other parts.
4. Sexual dysfunction such as sexual fistula and premature ejaculation: Prostatitis can cause decreased libido and pain in ejaculation, premature ejaculation, and affect semen quality. After urination or during defecation, it can also cause white discharge from the urethral orifice, and when combined with seminal vesiculitis, it can cause hematospermia.
5. Discomfort in urination: Many male patients have not detected prostatitis early, delaying treatment, leading to worsening of the condition. Among them, frequent urination, urethral burning, pain, and radiation to the head of the penis during urination are obvious symptoms of male prostatitis.
There are "two taboos" for preventing prostatitis, and it is necessary to "avoid eating" and pay attention to daily diet!
(1) Smoking
Toxic substances such as nicotine, tar (oily food), nitrosamines, and carbon monoxide in cigarettes can not only directly poison prostate tissue, but also interfere with the neural function that governs blood vessels, affect the blood circulation of the prostate, and can also aggravate prostate congestion.
(2) Wine
Alcohol is a drink that has a vasodilator effect. It is also evident that alcohol dilates blood vessels and causes congestion in organs, including the prostate. Due to the habit of long-term drinking and even excessive drinking among some young and middle-aged people, chronic prostatitis is not easy to cure and has a high probability of recurrence.
(3) Spicy food
Irritating foods such as scallions, raw garlic, chili peppers, and peppers can cause vasodilation and organ congestion. Some patients with chronic prostatitis like spicy foods, often able to control when the symptoms of the disease are severe, but relapse when the symptoms are relieved, which is also an important reason for the persistence and difficulty in healing of prostatitis.
Avoid "sexual bliss" and be careful not to faint the prostate
During sexual life, the prostate gland needs to secrete a large amount of prostate fluid, so it needs to be congested, edema, and muscle contraction. Generally, it takes 24-48 hours for hyperemia and edema to be eliminated.
If sexual life is inappropriate, such as excessive, excessive, and often repetitive sexual behavior, it is easy to cause prostate disease. "Due to excessive frequency, the sexual organs repeatedly and persistently become congested, and the edema has not yet recovered. If it is allowed to work and become congested, it can cause pathological changes, including, of course, prostate glands.".
