What to do with prostate enlargement? Drinking water regularly can alleviate prostate enlargement
Prostatic hypertrophy, also known as prostatic hyperplasia, is a common disease of the elderly male urinary system. As age increases, the prostate gland is constantly stimulated by hormones due to testicular atrophy and dysregulation of sexual hormone metabolism in the body, leading to hyperplasia and hypertrophy. Relevant data show that the incidence rate of people over 50 years old in China can reach more than 50%. Once the prostate is enlarged, it can compress the urethra, causing difficulty urinating, frequent urination, painful urination, urgency, poor urination, interruption, and urinary incontinence. If the prostate tissue is enlarged and congested, it can also cause hematuria, urinary tract infections, bladder stones, urinary tract obstruction, severe hydronephrosis, renal insufficiency, uremia, hemorrhoids, and anal diseases.
Long term holding urine is a major cause
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the main reasons for prostate enlargement are as follows: firstly, it is related to emotions. If the mood is not good, it can lead to stagnation of liver qi and obstruction of qi and blood, which can easily lead to the formation of congestion in the body, leading to obstruction of prostate circulation and hyperplasia. Secondly, maintain urine for a long time. Clinically, drivers, bank accountants, and service window workers have a higher incidence of prostate incidence rate. Due to prolonged retention of urine and reduced drinking water, the concentration and frequency of urination can be reduced, leading to the deposition of toxins in the urine. Harmful substances in the urine can damage the prostate. Thirdly, it is closely related to the greasy and humid diet. Unreasonable dietary structure and unhealthy dietary habits are also important factors that can trigger prostatitis. In addition, it is also related to the patient's own constitution, such as the incidence rate of kidney qi deficiency, liver and kidney deficiency, transportation weakness, and prostatic hypertrophy is relatively high.
