Xiaohuang from Hecheng District developed symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain in urination last week, accompanied by low back pain. After going to the hospital for an examination a few days ago, I was told that I had acute prostatitis. Moreover, the doctor found that the main reason for Li's illness was actually the cold weather, lingering on the warm bed and holding back urine until dawn, resulting in an attack of acute prostatitis.
Recently, patients like Xiao Huang have gradually increased. Experts explain that holding urine and falling asleep on cold days is one of the important reasons for the high incidence of prostatitis. Drinking less water during the day or holding urine for a long time at night can lead to slower metabolism and exacerbate the symptoms of prostatitis.
Experts say holding urine can be extremely harmful. Frequent holding urine can increase the pressure in the bladder, causing urine to flow back to the kidneys, easily causing inflammation of the pelvis and ureters. In addition, it can also make the bladder wall thinner, easily causing chronic inflammation of the bladder. Because the bladder is adjacent to the prostate, inflammation can gradually spread to the prostate, causing chronic inflammation of the prostate. Chronic prostatitis brings great pain to patients and difficulties in the treatment of prostatitis.
Prostate gland "likes cold and fears heat"
Holding urine in cold weather can easily lead to attacks of prostate disease
The prostate is the most typical organ that likes cold and fears heat. It protects the human reproductive system, secretes antibacterial factors, and protects itself and the urinary tract. "However, the prostate gland is located at the intersection between the urinary system, reproductive system, and rectum, with a harsh growth environment and at the end of the body. It is often affected by peripheral lesions, such as direct bacterial invasion, and other bacteria or bacteria invading through blood or lymphatic tissue.". These pathogens deposit in the prostate and persist for a long time. Once the immune function decreases, they will develop into various prostate diseases.
Under low temperature conditions, the excitability of the sympathetic nerve in the prostate can significantly increase, causing contraction of the prostate gland, causing chronic congestion, and increasing pressure in the urethra. Holding urine can also cause the bladder to overfill, oppress the prostate, exacerbate the accumulation of prostate fluid, leading to attacks of prostate disease, causing patients to have frequent urination, urgency, excessive nocturnal urination, painful urination, perineal and testicular pain, and other symptoms.
Pay attention to keeping warm in winter to prevent prostate diseases
Male friends should develop good living habits, try not to eat spicy, spicy, and stimulating foods in life, quit smoking and alcohol, and reduce inducing factors; Sit down soon, don't hold your urine, and increase or decrease your clothes according to the temperature to avoid catching cold.
Especially in winter, special attention should be paid to strengthening the warmth of the prostate, drinking more water, and flushing the urethra through urination to promote the discharge of prostate secretions to achieve the effect of preventing prostate infection. In addition, physical exercise should also be strengthened.
