"Lifestyle is closely related to people's physical and mental health, and many poor living habits can become the cause of disease, or even directly lead to the occurrence of disease. Among the causes of prostate cancer, many are related to poor living habits.".
From a physiological perspective, sitting can slow blood circulation, especially in the perineum, which directly leads to chronic congestion and congestion in the perineum and prostate. However, sitting in a regular position will not have any impact on the body. If you keep sitting for a long time due to work and other reasons, it can have a certain impact on the prostate. This is because hyperemia of the perineum and prostate can cause accumulation of local metabolites, obstruction of the prostate glands, and impeded excretion of glandular fluid, leading to the occurrence of chronic prostatitis.
Some scholars have found through investigation that car drivers account for a large proportion of patients with chronic prostatitis and are not easily cured, which can explain this problem. Therefore, those engaged in this field of work should recognize this phenomenon, avoid prolonged sitting and immobility at work, take appropriate rest after work, and timely change of posture, which can improve local prostate congestion and reduce or avoid the occurrence of prostatitis.
Cycling and sitting for the same reason can cause local congestion of the perineum and prostate, as well as blood circulation disorders. In the long run, it can lead to the occurrence of prostatitis. Moreover, riding a bicycle directly oppresses the perineal prostate gland compared to sitting position, especially during long-distance cycling. Symptoms such as perineal numbness and discomfort, perineal pain, urethral pain during urination, difficulty urinating, and waist soreness can occur, which is also one of the main factors leading to the high incidence of chronic prostatitis in men in China.
Therefore, this issue should be taken into account in daily life and work, especially for patients who have already suffered from chronic prostatitis. The continuous cycling time of Yiyin should be within 30 minutes. If the journey is long, you should get off the bike and exercise appropriately during the cycling process, and then take a rest before walking. And the angle of the seat can be adjusted appropriately. The front part should not be too high. You can also add a Shanghai cotton pad to make the seat soft and comfortable, which is also helpful in reducing prostate congestion and preventing the occurrence or aggravation of chronic prostatitis.
Drinking alcohol into the human body can accelerate blood circulation and expand blood vessels, especially the visceral blood vessels. When suffering from prostatitis, especially acute prostatitis, alcohol should be strictly prohibited to avoid spreading the inflammation and causing other chain reactions. For patients with chronic prostatitis and prostate hypertrophy, heavy drinking is very harmful. Because heavy drinking can damage the body's defense function, such as causing vitamin deficiency in the body, reducing the defense function of the respiratory tract, damaging the liver and kidneys, causing anemia, etc., making it easy for bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms to invade, promoting a significant increase in the chances of infection and relapse. Therefore, patients with chronic prostate disease should be cautious about drinking alcohol.
Smoking tobacco is a plant of the Solanaceae family and one of the plants with the most alkaloids. The smoke generated by smoking contains a large number of harmful components, mainly nicotine, tar, argon hydrofluoric acid, carbon monoxide, etc., which can reduce the physiological function of the body to recognize, eliminate, and clear antigen foreign bodies. People who smoke for a long time have a decreased immune system and are vulnerable to harmful microorganisms. The prostate may be one of the affected organs. In addition, due to the long course of chronic prostatitis, which is prone to relapse, treatment is relatively difficult. For non smokers, under normal circumstances, certain bacteria will not cause a relapse of the old disease, while for smokers, due to the destruction of their own immunity, it is relatively easy to cause an acute attack of chronic inflammation.
