Prostatitis is a common disease in men. It can be a disease with mild symptoms or a disease with complex symptoms that can lead to urinary tract infections, sexual dysfunction, and even infertility. Therefore, in order to avoid worsening the condition to a stage that is difficult to treat, it is necessary to have a certain understanding of the initial symptoms of prostatitis. Once found, active individualized comprehensive treatment should be taken.
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 blood semen.
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.
"Two taboos" for preventing prostatitis
To "avoid eating", 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.".
