The prostate gland is a necessary and unique organ in men, which plays an important role in urogenital system. Protecting the prostate health is a man's duty. But due to some bad habits in daily life, many male friends may suffer from prostate problems, especially prostatitis.
As we all know, drinking and smoking are bad habits for human health, which can induce prostatitis to some extent. There are also other bad habits related to prostatitis, which we usually don't pay much attention to, but they can hurt the prostate gland over time. The most common one is a full bladder, which means you hold back urine for too long.
What is the relationship between prostatitis and a full bladder?
In the daily life, we may have things to do so that we can't urinate in time. Holding back urine seems to a common behavior in today's society, especially for office workers and bus drivers. Some male friends keep their urine habitually to finish their work or keep on playing games. When it becomes a habit, it does hurt the bladder and prostate gland, further inducing prostatitis. Why is that?
Experts say that holding back urine too often and too long will cause a lot of harm to human body, which may increase bladder pressure, affect urinal metabolism in the kidney and other bad symptoms.
Urination is actually a process of toxin discharge. Regular urination can wash away the bacteria in the urethra. If you often have a full bladder, the sphincter in the urethra will be unable to control the urine and make the pressure in the bladder higher than usual. To relief the pressure, your body will let some urine enter the urethra and the prostate gland. In this case, some bacteria and harmful substances in the urine will have a chance to invade and stimulate the prostate gland, thus induce prostatitis.
Therefore, always having a full bladder will make the prostate gland swollen and congested for a long time. The more urine you hold back at an early stage, the more you will urine later. After getting prostatitis unknowingly, you will have symptoms like frequent and urgent urination, painful urination and burning sensation when urinating. To keep the prostate gland healthy, this bad behavior should be given up as soon as possible.
Always drink more water and empty the urine in time, which will be beneficial to the urogenital system in men. Otherwise, you will be at high risk of getting prostatitis. Once suffering from the disease, proper treatment should be done in time.
For patients with acute prostatitis, antibiotics can be used for one or two weeks. If the patient has chronic prostatitis due to years of bad habits, they need a long-time treatment, which can be done by herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill. This is an effective method for chronic prostatitis, which will eliminate all bacteria and viruses in the urogenital system, and can relieve painful symptoms after a long-time taking.
