Chronic prostatitis is not as sudden as acute prostatitis, but it appears vaguely and repeatedly for a long time. Although it is not life-threatening, it is currently recognized by the medical profession as difficult to cure and extremely prone to recurrence, and many patients will also bring it into old age.
Eliminating tension helps alleviate symptoms
The cause of chronic prostatitis to avoid stress is still controversial, but it is generally recognized by doctors that eliminating the patient's psychological tension can help alleviate the symptoms.
In a study, British scientist Miller found that patients with prostatitis have different levels of stress factors when their symptoms worsen, such as overwork, fatigue, anxiety, and so on. Miller pointed out that behavioral therapy to eliminate stress is definitely beneficial for the treatment of chronic prostatitis.
There are also statistics found in China that 65% of chronic prostatitis patients are middle level managers and business backbones in their units, especially male middle level managers over the age of 35. As they enter middle age, their social responsibilities increase, and their mental pressure also increases. Therefore, it is particularly important for patients with chronic prostatitis to make psychological adjustments.
Another special finding in recent years that is not suitable for prolonged sitting is that among patients with chronic prostatitis, car drivers with less mental stress also account for a large proportion and are not easily cured. Urologists explain from a physiological perspective that prolonged sitting can slow blood circulation, directly leading to perineal and prostate congestion.
Therefore, drivers and office workers should not sit still for long periods of time, exercise appropriately after work, and change their positions in a timely manner. Before going to bed at night, using a warm water hip bath can change the local congestion of the prostate and reduce or avoid the occurrence of chronic prostatitis.
Chronic inflammation is prone to induce prostate cancer
Chronic prostatitis can also easily induce prostate cancer by eating less animal fat. In countries where meat and dairy products are the staple foods, the incidence rate of prostate cancer is higher than that in countries where rice and vegetables are the staple foods. Among them, men who eat a lot of fat, especially animal fat from red meat, are most likely to cause prostate cancer. Therefore, the incidence of prostate cancer is high in Europe and the United States. In China, with the change of dietary structure, the National People's Congress has increased the intake of dairy and meat products. In recent years, the incidence rate of prostate cancer in China has increased year by year.
