Qigong therapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia
The existence of Qigong has also played a positive role in China's medical field. Friends who often practice Qigong are in good health and seldom get sick. Fitness qigong can alleviate the symptoms of prostatic hyperplasia to some extent. I will tell you the secret here.
Qigong is helpful for benign prostatic hyperplasia because people pay attention to the abdomen when practicing Qigong, which helps patients to recuperate themselves from the inside of the body.
Many patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia think that the prostate will have a certain degree of congestion and edema, and there will be some uncomfortable symptoms, so they should not take physical exercise, fearing that physical activity will aggravate the pathological state of the prostate. In fact, this idea is unscientific.
In daily life, proper physical exercise will not only aggravate prostate hyperplasia, but also help patients to strengthen their physique and restore prostate function.
Of course, the selected exercise should not be too intense, and excessive exercise should be avoided.
Qigong exercise is a good exercise for patients with prostatic hyperplasia, which not only helps to treat prostatic hyperplasia, but also has a certain health care effect.
Qigong, as the essence of China traditional culture, can regulate the breath, heart and body in different ways, and finally achieve the purpose of strengthening the body and preventing diseases.
Commonly used qigong techniques include lifting anus, inhaling, pulling back, shiatsu, lifting kidney and so on. Among them, patients can sit on the stool when training renal function, which is relatively simple, but they can't sit on the stool when sitting, with their feet on the ground, shoulder-width apart from each other, hands on their thighs, naturally relaxed, and palms up and down.
It is recommended that patients do this action several times a day, and their condition will definitely improve.
Focus on the perineum. With breathing, the perineum will be lifted and relaxed, tightened and relaxed, so that dark energy will be lifted and recovered.
Adopt the method of abdominal breathing, inhale and exhale to relax the abdomen and lift the perineum hard. You can practice 3~5 times a day and repeat it 20 times each time.
Matters needing attention in benign prostatic hyperplasia
1, keep a good attitude. Patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia should pay attention to the regulation of nerves, so that the excretion function of the liver is normal, which is conducive to smooth urination.
2. Eat less spicy food. Patients should pay attention to eating less irritating food, which will not only cause congestion of sexual organs, but also aggravate the symptoms of hemorrhoids and constipation, oppress the prostate and aggravate the symptoms of dysuria.
3. Do not urinate. Holding urine will lead to over-filling of bladder, weakening detrusor muscle tension, dysuria, and easy to induce acute urinary retention. Therefore, the health care of benign prostatic hyperplasia must be to urinate.
4. Prevent colds. A cold will aggravate the condition, so patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia must pay attention to cold prevention to prevent colds and upper respiratory tract infections.
5, avoid alcohol. Drinking alcohol may cause congestion and edema of prostate and bladder neck, and induce urinary retention.
6. Don't overwork yourself. Fatigue will damage the middle qi, and insufficient middle qi will lead to weak urination and easy to cause urinary retention.
Avoiding sedentary will aggravate diseases such as hemorrhoids, and it is also easy to make the perineum congested, causing dysuria. Regular participation in cultural and sports activities and qigong exercises is helpful to relieve the symptoms of prostatic hyperplasia.
7. Drink plenty of water. Drinking too little water will not only cause dehydration, which is not conducive to the flushing effect of urination on the urinary tract, but also easily cause urine concentration and form insoluble stones. Therefore, in addition to properly reducing drinking water at night to avoid excessive bladder filling after sleep, drink more water during the day.
8. Eat more practical honey to keep the stool smooth, eat beef and eggs in moderation, and eat more fresh fruits, vegetables, coarse grains and soy products.
The above is the introduction of the precautions for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia must do daily nursing to promote their early recovery.
Of course, qigong is not a special therapy that works for a certain disease or a certain part, but it can achieve curative effect by improving the overall functional state of the human body.
In other words, Qigong does not directly achieve curative effect, but realizes its various functions by exerting the potential ability of the human body, and its mechanism is complex and comprehensive. It can be roughly summarized as the following aspects.
1, nourishing healthy qi and tonifying Shen Yuan.
This is the basis of qigong to strengthen the body, protect health and prolong life, and treat various fatigue diseases. Qigong exercises protect the abdomen and breathe the essence through ideas? And a series of other corresponding means, so that the essence in the body is full. Experimental research also proves that qigong exercise can obviously improve or regulate the immune function of human body, whether it is cellular immunity or humoral immunity, specific immunity or non-specific immunity, the practitioners are better than ordinary people.
2. Balance yin and yang and coordinate viscera.
Harmonizing Yin and Yang is the main principle of Qigong. Practitioners realize the regulation of yin and yang and viscera by changing breathing methods, observation methods and corresponding body movements.
It is through this mechanism that the overall role and biphasic role in qigong therapy are realized. The experimental study reveals that the function of Qi is to regulate the tension of autonomic nerve, which proves that Qigong can regulate the yin and yang of human body.
Clinically, this is the basis for qigong to treat hypertension, ulcers and other diseases, and it is also the reason why qigong exercise can relieve tension and eliminate fatigue.
3. dredge the meridians and promote qi.
The ancients called qigong? A tour guide? Say it again? Guide qi to harmony, pull-ups to softness? , summed up the role of qigong on qi. Some phenomena in Qigong, such as excessive qi and excessive qi, reflect the effect of Qigong on meridian qi and blood.
Experiments have also proved that in the functional state of Qigong, the peripheral circulation of the body is accelerated, the volume of blood vessels at fingertips is increased, the blood viscosity is reduced, and the blood flow of the brain and other organs such as the liver is increased.
4. Explore human potential
There are still many potential abilities of the human body that have not been explored and utilized. How to develop potential ability is the main goal of human science.
Some signs of Qigong exercise, such as greatly improving memory and self-control ability, cultivating and triggering some extraordinary abilities, seem to have preliminarily suggested that it has the function of developing potential. However, it is still unclear how important Qigong is in this respect and what its role is.
Symptomatic posture of benign prostatic hyperplasia
1. Frequent urination is the earliest manifestation, first at night, then during the day. After detrusor decompensation, residual urine increases, effective bladder capacity decreases, and urinary frequency increases.
2. Dysuria Progressive dysuria is a remarkable feature of the disease, which is characterized by delayed urination, thinner urinary line, shorter range and dripping after urine.
3. Hematuria The capillaries on the prostate mucosa are congested, the small blood vessels are dilated, and they are pulled by the bladder filling and contraction to rupture and bleed. Hematuria can also occur when combined with bladder tumor.
4. The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) asks patients seven questions about urination, and scores each question according to the severity of symptoms (0-5 points), with a total score of 0-35 points (asymptomatic to very serious symptoms). Among them, 0 ~ 7 is divided into mild symptoms; 8 ~ 19 is divided into moderate symptoms; 20 ~ 35 is divided into severe symptoms. Although IPSS analysis attempts to quantify the degree of symptom change, it is still influenced by subjective factors.
Physical examination: when acute urinary retention occurs, the lower abdomen is swollen. The suprapubic region touches the filled bladder. Digital rectal examination showed that the prostate was enlarged, the surface was smooth and elastic, and the central sulcus became shallow or disappeared. Prostatic hyperplasia can be divided into 3 degrees according to the degree of gland enlargement. I degree increase: the prostate is larger than normal 1.5 ~ 2 times, the central sulcus becomes shallow, and the distance to penetrate the rectum is1~ 2 cm; Second enlargement: the gland is moderately enlarged, 2-3 times larger than normal, and the central sulcus disappears or protrudes slightly, protruding into the rectum for 2-3 cm; ⅲ degree swelling: the gland is swollen seriously, protruding into the rectum more than 3cm, and the central sulcus is obviously prominent, so the fingers can't touch the upper edge during examination.
