Benign prostatic hyperplasia

With the continuous improvement of modernization, people's living standards are also constantly improving, people's quality of life is also constantly improving, and people's lifestyles are also constantly changing. It is precisely because of this situation that people do more things, but these things are also relatively good, and benign prostatic hyperplasia is one of them.

As for benign prostatic hyperplasia, there are actually many practices in society, and it is also quite common, but people do not need to worry too much about it because medical technology is so advanced nowadays. The following is some information about benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a common disease in middle-aged and elderly men. Generally, about half of men over 50 years old will have clinical symptoms. The enlarged prostate squeezes the urethra, leading to a series of urination disorder symptoms, such as frequent urination, urgency, weak urine stream, and incomplete urination.

What issues should patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia pay attention to in their lives:

Patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia should pay attention to absolutely avoiding alcohol. Drinking alcohol can cause congestion and edema of the prostate and bladder neck and induce urinary retention.

Eat less spicy and stimulating food, which can not only cause congestion of the reproductive organs, but also aggravate the symptoms of hemorrhoids and constipation, compress the prostate, and aggravate urination difficulties.

Do not overwork. Excessive fatigue will deplete your vital energy. Insufficient vital energy will cause weak urination and easily lead to urinary retention.

Avoid sitting for long periods of time. Regular sitting for long periods of time can aggravate diseases such as hemorrhoids, and can easily cause congestion in the perineum, leading to difficulty urinating. Regular participation in cultural and sports activities and qigong exercises can help alleviate symptoms.

Do not hold your urine. Holding your urine will cause the bladder to overfill, weaken the tension of the bladder detrusor muscle, make urination difficult, and easily induce acute urinary retention. Therefore, you must urinate as soon as you have to.

Prevent cold from late autumn to early spring, the weather is changeable and cold weather often makes the condition worse. What are the precautions for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia? Patients must pay attention to keeping warm, preventing colds and upper respiratory tract infections, etc.

The development and growth of the prostate gland are slow from birth to before puberty; after puberty, the growth rate accelerates, reaching its peak at around 24 years old, and its size is relatively stable between 30 and 45 years old. Later, some people may tend to proliferate, and the volume of the gland gradually increases. If the prostatic urethra is significantly compressed, it may cause obstruction of the bladder outlet and related symptoms of difficulty urinating, which is called prostatic hyperplasia.

Through the above understanding and introduction, I believe everyone can have a certain understanding of this benign prostatic hyperplasia. At the same time, I hope that everyone can be helped by the above knowledge. At the same time, I also hope that everyone can do more exercises suitable for themselves in daily life, and develop a habit of going to bed early and getting up early.
