Is your prostate okay?

Many men think that prostate disease is a disease that is difficult to talk about, but according to statistics, about 8-25% of the people who see a doctor in urology are patients with prostatitis, and even related data shows that almost 50% of men have suffered from prostatitis. . Therefore, prostatitis is a very common disease, and generally occurs in men under the age of 50, and the age of 31 to 40 is the highest incidence.

In fact, there are many causes of prostatitis, not because of sexual confusion, but more caused by bad habits, mainly including these:

1. Bad eating habits: Many people especially like to eat big fish and meat, spicy and irritating food in daily life, but they don’t know that long-term intake of these foods will make the prostate very “injured”. These bad eating habits will lead to repeated congestion of the prostate, providing very convenient conditions for the occurrence of prostatitis in the future.

Second, sedentary. Many men are in a sedentary state for a long time on a daily basis, which will make the prostate in a state of long-term oppression, leading to prostate congestion and prostatitis.

3. Unclean before and after sex. Men who do not do a good job of cleaning can easily cause bacterial infection during sex, which in turn induces inflammations such as urethritis and prostatitis.

Fourth, hold back urine. If the urine is not excreted in time, the urine will be absorbed by the body for the second time, and it will be returned to the body through the prostate and urethra. During this process, some metabolic wastes and pollutants in the urine are likely to contaminate the prostate and urethra and induce the prostate. inflammation and urethritis.

There are 4 major symptoms, indicating that you are targeted by prostatitis

When the prostate is inflamed, some abnormal symptoms will appear in the body. When you find these symptoms in your body, you must seek medical treatment in time without delay!

1. Abnormal urination

Prostatitis can cause men to have symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, burning pain during urination, and incomplete urination. Some patients will secrete white, thick secretions while urinating.
2. Low back pain

Most of the patients suffering from prostatitis will experience lower back pain, and most patients with pain will experience distending pain, falling pain or indescribable pain, and these pains will mostly persist. However, it is not limited to the prostate, but will spread around the prostate, and pain may occur up to the waist and abdomen and down to the lower extremities.

3. Dysfunction

Some patients with prostatitis will experience sexual dysfunction, such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and impotence during sex.
4. Hydronephrosis
Continued inflammation of the prostate can lead to compression of the urethra, which in turn can lead to urinary tract obstruction, in which case it is very easy to advance to the kidneys. It can lead to hydronephrosis or renal function damage in the kidney, which seriously threatens the patient's kidney health.

Men don’t want to be targeted by prostatitis, don’t do these 2 things after sex

For men, although prostatitis is common, it is not impossible to prevent. After sex, just avoiding these two things can prevent it from happening to a great extent.

1. Don't take a bath

It is very necessary for men to take a bath after sex, because during sex, there may be some smegma or some secretions left in the male genitals. If these substances are not cleaned up in time, they will become petri dishes for various bacteria, which are very easy to cause inflammation.
2. Don’t urinate immediately

Men should not urinate immediately after sex. Because at the end of sex, the male genitals are not completely weak, and will compress the urethra to a certain extent. If you urinate at this time, the pressure in the urethra will increase, and the bacteria and metabolic waste contained in the urine will easily flow back to the prostate, causing prostatitis. Men are advised to urinate 5 to 10 minutes after sex.
