Sexual Health
Three things men should keep in mind after defecation to effectively protect the prostate
I believe that many people, especially boys, will not pay more attention to some small details after urination. Just wash your hands at most. However, these seemingly insignificant details are likely to have an impact on your health. What small details are so important? Let me tell you one by one.
Men: squeeze down the perineum after urination
Don't sit down immediately after urinating.
If a man sits down immediately after urination, it will cause the residual urine to flow back, giving the bacteria in the urethra an opportunity to take advantage of it, which is easy to induce prostatitis. After urination, you can squeeze your fingers at the perineum between the scrotum and anus. This will help to discharge the residual urine in the bladder, and it is also beneficial to the treatment of chronic prostatitis.
Strong urination does not mean strong sexual ability.
Many men measure their sexual ability by the sound, strength and duration of urination. In fact, there is not much relationship between the two. Sexual ability depends to a large extent on the hardness and endurance of the penis erection, which is related to the blood microcirculation of the penis, and has nothing to do with the performance of urination.
Don't worry about occasional bifurcations.
Bifurcation of urine is mainly due to the obstruction of the urethra or urethral opening. For example, holding urine will increase the pressure in the bladder. When urinating, it is easy to temporarily change the shape of the urethral opening and cause bifurcations of urine. After male ejaculation, because part of the semen remains in the urethra, and the erection has not completely disappeared, the urine will also bifurcate. The above two conditions are normal, but if there is persistent and high frequency urinary bifurcations, you should go to the hospital for examination.
Frequent urination and polyuria.
If the frequency of urination is not caused by excessive drinking water, it is called frequent urination. The number of urination increases and the volume of urine per time decreases, which may be due to the decrease of bladder urine storage function. If the frequency of urination increases, but the amount of urine each time does not decrease, it is polyuria, which may be the metabolic function of the body, such as diabetes. " If frequent urination is accompanied by discomfort such as urgency and pain in urination, you should be alert for urinary system infection.
The urination time becomes longer and the continuity is not good.
The symptoms of male urination, such as significantly longer urination time, poor continuity, ticking sensation, difficulty urination, weakness urination, and increased nocturnal urination in middle-aged and elderly men, are all signals of prostate disease.
Urine has many foam and peculiar smell.
When urinating, if the foam in the toilet increases, especially the foam in the first urine in the morning is obvious, which may be caused by kidney disease, you should go to the hospital for routine urine examination in time to see whether the protein in the urine increases. If the urine has the smell of rotten apples, it should be suspected that it is a sign of diabetes.
Abnormal urine color
Red: It indicates that there may be excessive red blood cells in the urine, also known as "hematuria", which is mostly caused by kidney disease, stones, prostatitis, bladder tumor, etc. If severe low back pain is accompanied by hematuria, it is mostly caused by stones, such as kidney stones and ureteral stones.
It is oily: it is caused by the massive destruction of red blood cells in urine, and it may also be acute nephritis, acute icteric hepatitis and hemolytic jaundice.
It is white: like milk, sometimes mixed with white clots or blood, indicating that there is chyle in the urine, which originates from filariasis or blockage of kidney and lymphatic vessels.
Yellowing of urine: Berberine, vitamin B and other drugs can cause yellowing of urine. But if you don't take medicine, your urine color is very yellow and lasts for more than half a month, you should be vigilant. The urine color is too yellow, often indicating liver and gallbladder diseases, such as hepatitis, gallstones, biliary obstruction, obstructive jaundice and other diseases.
Of course, food sometimes changes the color of urine, so don't panic. Finally, it is necessary to go to the hospital to find out the specific reason if your urine character and color change, and it lasts for a long time, and it is difficult to find the answer from the food or medicine you ingest.
