What should be paid attention to in the health care of enlarged prostate? Then what should middle-aged and elderly friends with enlarged prostate pay attention to in winter?
1. Timely treatment should be carried out for prostatitis, cystitis and urethral calculi in time.
2. Drink water in moderation. Drinking too little water not only can cause dehydration, but also is not conducive to the flushing effect of urination on the urinary tract. It can easily lead to urine concentration and the formation of insoluble stones. Therefore, except for appropriately reducing water intake at night to avoid excessive bladder fullness after sleep, more water should be consumed during the day.
3. Be cautious with medication. Some drugs can aggravate difficulty in urination. A large dose can cause acute urinary retention. The main drugs include belladonna tablets, isoprenaline, etc. In recent years, calcium antagonists and verapamil have been found to promote prolactin secretion and weaken the contraction force of the detrusor muscle, aggravating difficulty in urination. Therefore, certain drugs should be used with caution or preferably not used.
4. Pay attention to keeping warm. From late autumn to early spring, the weather changes unpredictably. Prevent colds and upper respiratory tract infections. Cold often worsens the condition.
5. Avoid drinking alcohol. Alcohol can cause congestion and edema of the prostate and bladder neck, leading to urinary retention.
6. Eat less spicy food. Spicy and stimulating food can lead to congestion of sex organs, and can also aggravate hemorrhoids and constipation symptoms, pressing the prostate and aggravating difficulty in urination.
7. Do not hold urine. Holding urine can cause excessive bladder fullness, weakening the tension of the bladder detrusor muscle, making urination difficult, and easily inducing acute urinary retention. Therefore, it is necessary to urinate whenever you feel the need.
8. Avoid overwork. Excessive fatigue can consume the vital energy, causing insufficient vital energy, resulting in weak urination and easy to cause urinary retention.
9. Avoid sitting for long periods. Long-term sitting can aggravate diseases such as hemorrhoids, and easily cause congestion in the perineum, leading to difficulty in urination. Regular participation in cultural and sports activities and qigong exercises, etc., helps alleviate symptoms.
10. Massage the lower abdomen. Massaging the lower abdomen and pressing points such as Qihai and Guanyuan below the navel helps restore bladder function. Applying slight pressure massage after urination can promote bladder emptying and reduce residual urine.
