For men, the prostate is the most vulnerable but the most neglected thing during the holiday. After each holiday, the number of patients with prostate disease in the hospital will increase by about 30%. Why do you have such problems after the holiday? This should start with the "pressure" that the holiday brings to the prostate.
Three "pressures" of holidays on men's prostate
Alcohol causes prostate enlargement
It is natural for relatives and friends to get together without drinking. Alcohol has the effect of dilating capillaries, resulting in increased blood flow in areas with abundant capillaries, which is prone to swelling. The prostate is just a place rich in capillaries. After drinking, the prostate will swell up and bulge to squeeze the bladder, causing the bladder to bulge and press the urethra, causing difficulty in urination. If people who drink alcohol have prostate hyperplasia, the problem will be more serious.
Spicy food stimulates prostate congestion
It is not only alcohol that can cause prostate enlargement, but also friends who like spicy food should be careful, such as scallions, raw garlic, pepper, pepper and other stimulating foods, which can cause vasodilation and organ congestion. Especially for patients suffering from chronic prostatitis, spicy food will cause the onset of prostatitis and even aggravate the disease.
Prostatitis induced by sedentary urination
During the Spring Festival, there are many parties, and people sit for a long time, whether playing mahjong, playing mobile phones, or playing computer. This will squeeze into the prostate, which will block the blood microcirculation of the male reproductive system, slow down the metabolism, slow down the excretion of harmful substances, and deposit in the prostate, burying the hidden danger of prostatitis.
Develop post-holiday decompression plan
So at the end of the holiday, men might as well make a "decompression plan" for the prostate
1. Mild diet: usually drink more water and urinate more, and often wash the urethra through urine to help excrete prostate secretion and prevent infection; Eat more tomatoes, apples and other fruits; Abstain from alcohol and spicy food; Avoid eating greasy food.
2. Optimism: establish a happy and full spirit, correctly understand the disease, change the gray way of thinking, and actively face work, study, life and disease. Be optimistic and open-minded, and eliminate your bad emotions in time.
3. Don't overwork and catch cold: adjust the rhythm of work and life, combine work and rest, and avoid excessive fatigue; According to the change of temperature, clothes should be increased or decreased timely to avoid catching cold.
4. Adhere to hot water sitz bath (unmarried and childless men should use it with caution), 15-30 minutes each time, to ensure a certain water temperature; Pay attention to personal hygiene.
