Prostate disease is a high incidence disease for men, and the incidence rate will increase with the growth of men's age. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the prostate from now on. How do men protect the prostate? First of all, we should know that the health of the prostate is related to men's urination. Men can prevent prostate diseases by mastering some urination skills, such as squatting urination and doing more anal exercises. Please see the details below.
1. It is better to squat when urinating, which can increase abdominal pressure and accelerate urine excretion. If it is not convenient in public, try more in your own home.
2. Do more anal lifting exercises at ordinary times to enhance the contractility of perineal muscles and urethral muscles, so as to minimize the residual urine in the bladder.
3. Don't try hard when urinating, especially those with prostatitis and prostatic hyperplasia. The office clerk who has been sitting for a long time should get up and move around every 40 minutes, kick and stretch. If the driver has been driving for a long time, he should also pay attention to changing his sitting position so that the prostate can get sufficient blood supply.
4. When urinating or taking a shower, you can squeeze your finger on the perineum between the scrotum and anus to make the residual urine in the bladder discharged in time, which is beneficial to chronic prostatitis.
5. After male urination, the internal and external sphincters of the urethra are closed, making the urethra in the prostate form a closed cavity. Sitting down immediately after urination will increase the pressure in the cavity, thus causing urine reflux, and the bacteria in the urethra have an opportunity to induce or aggravate prostatitis. Li Zhigang suggested that men should walk or stand for 3 to 5 minutes after urination, and then sit down after the urethra returns to its natural state.
Because the male urethra is long, it is easy to urinate, which is easy to cause urinary tract infection. Experts suggest that male friends adjust the way of urination properly to avoid urinary tract infection and prevent prostate disease. The five male urination methods recommended above can be used for reference in order to protect the prostate.
