Effective exercise against prostatitis

The main principle of prostatitis treatment is a comprehensive approach. Physical activity is not the last stop of treatment-special exercises that help speed recovery. But they must be performed correctly according to technology and can only be done after consulting the attending doctor.

In order to completely get rid of diseases of the genitourinary system, men need complex treatment, which includes multiple measures. This includes physical exercise, and a lot of exercise has been done so far.

How does exercise affect the course of prostatitis?

The prostate is composed of 3 lobes with a urethral space in between. Each leaf contains vesicle fibers and cortex, and the prostate is located under the bladder (sphincter). The entire system is closely connected, so it can operate normally.

When the prostate is affected (there are many reasons, including a sedentary lifestyle, a static posture), the fibers lose their elasticity, the tension is reduced, and blood circulation is disrupted. Therefore, the blood is not supplied at the required intensity and the amount is small. This will deprive the genitals of nutrition. As a result, the synthesis of new cells slows down and local metabolism weakens.

When a patient starts an active lifestyle (special exercises for the pelvic organs), the following will happen:

  1. The blood supply of the genitourinary system is stimulated, and in this context, oxygen and other useful substances are supplied.
  2. The functional capacity of nerve cells is restored (prostatitis often occurs under stressful background).
  3. The stagnation of the prostate is eliminated.
  4. The muscles of the perineum and hip joints are strengthened, so the genitourinary organs are in the correct anatomical position.
  5. The metabolism is accelerated and the fiber structure is normalized.
  6. The organization becomes more flexible.
  7. The inflammatory process is reduced.

The effectiveness of physical activity on prostatitis has been proven by scientific research. The reason for this is the main cause of the disease-congestion of the prostate due to impaired blood supply.

Exercise to treat chronic prostatitis

The gymnastics exercises for chronic prostatitis are designed to stimulate the prostate and increase its effectiveness. Basic sports requirements:

  • On a hard surface;
  • Put a roller or a small pillow under the head;
