Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland that occurs due to a violation of blood microcirculation in the muscles of the pelvis and pelvic floor or an infectious process in its tissues. It is accompanied by dysuria, pain during urination and ejaculation, a significant deterioration in the quality of life of a man.
Not timely carried out or incorrectly selected treatment leads to frequent relapses, the transition of the disease to a chronic form. In addition to conservative therapy, there are many folk remedies that have been tested by patients with prostatitis and have received excellent reviews.
Squats are the best exercises for prostatitis
If this disease is based on an inflammatory process (rather than bacterial), it is quite possible that the blood supply to the muscles surrounding the prostate gland is impaired. To restore blood circulation, there is no better and more effective exercise than squats. To begin with, you should pass the test and try to squat with straight arms raised above your head.
Squats should be deep, that is, the pelvis should not be held at or above the knees. Performing this exercise at least 100 times indicates good potential for the treatment of prostatitis. Pain in the legs is a sign of muscle weakness and insufficient blood supply to the pelvic organs and the prostate as well.
You don’t need to do 3 squats every day, 3 times a week is enough. A simpler option is to do 50 sets in a row, 3 times, with a break of XNUMX minutes between sets.
It is necessary to strive for the cherished figure “one hundred”, supplementing squats with other exercises:
Performing “scissors”, sitting on the floor and resting your hands slightly behind your back (20 times with each leg);
Lifting straight legs in the supine position (20 times).
A set of these exercises combined with squats will help get rid of prostatitis without medication.
Other exercises for the treatment of prostatitis
Exercise 1. Lie on your back, put your legs bent over you so that your knees are near your face. Grab your legs with your hands, and in this position you need to lie down for 3 to 20 minutes. This is a very effective exercise and helps even with exacerbation of prostatitis, but patience is needed. The effect is better, the longer you lie like this, but not more than 20 minutes.
Exercise 2. In the morning when you wake up, the first thing to do is massage your perineum for five minutes. This massage will relieve you of prostate stagnation. Before eating, do one more exercise: standing at full height, legs together, squat one third and in this position alternately move your knees forward, first left, then right. You need to continue doing this for five minutes. In the evening, the exercise can be repeated. At first, of course, it will be difficult, but over time you will get used to it. And you definitely will not have to be afraid of prostatitis if you like to walk.
The most accessible exercise
Walking 2-3 hours a week reduces the risk of prostate enlargement (BPH) by 5-25%, and also reduces the chance of experiencing severe nocturia (the predominance of nighttime diuresis over daytime) by 31%. [1]
