More than half of men suffer from prostatitis at least once in their lives. According to research, exercising a few hours a week can help prevent various prostate diseases. For example, jogging every day can alleviate symptoms of chronic prostatitis such as frequent urination, urgency, pain in urination, poor urination, and pubic and perineal inflammation. "But more physical exercise is not the best, and excessive exercise may also cause damage to the prostate.".
Intensive exercise is not conducive to prostate rehabilitation
Moderate exercise can alleviate the clinical symptoms of chronic prostatitis, especially symptoms such as low back soreness, pain and discomfort in the perineum and lower abdomen, as well as neurological disorders and neurasthenia. In addition, taking more exercise can also deliver drugs to the prostate gland more quickly, thereby improving the efficacy of drugs.
However, we need to note that vigorous exercise can cause congestion and edema of the prostate, exacerbating symptoms of discomfort. Therefore, the amount and intensity of exercise should be moderate, and it is best to persist for about half an hour every day. The intensity of exercise depends on your habits and age. It should not be too intense and should not be used in competitive sports, such as running fast.
In addition to choosing sports based on your own interests and hobbies, you should also consider whether factors that can exacerbate the disease. Try to choose mild sports, such as walking, jogging, and gymnastics. By exercising the muscles of the abdomen, perineum, and buttocks, you can promote blood and lymphatic circulation in the prostate region, which is conducive to the regression and absorption of local inflammation.
Jogging is the best form of exercise for prostate maintenance
Exercise for half an hour every day is a suitable exercise time for preventing and treating prostatitis. This half hour of exercise can also be broken down into three 10 minutes. The specific exercise method is preferably jogging. Swimming, tennis, dancing, badminton, and even a brisk walk around the neighborhood are all good aerobic exercises.
In several sports, jogging is the best form of maintaining the prostate gland. When running, the pelvic floor muscles relax regularly and rhythmically, as if placing the prostate gland on a "trampoline" and allowing it to "bounce" on it, activating the blood of the prostate gland and its surrounding organs and tissues.
In addition, during running, the internal organs of the abdominal cavity, especially the intestines and omentum, regularly and forcefully impact the prostate, providing a "massage" to the prostate
