Don't squat in the toilet! Tension in pelvic muscles can cause frequent urination.

When female friends urinate, don't squat on the toilet to avoid pelvic dysfunction. Every time a 32-year-old woman goes to a public toilet and encounters a sitting toilet, she will urinate by squatting without touching the toilet, causing long-term tension in the muscles and nerves of the pelvic floor, and symptoms of cystitis such as urinary retention, frequent urination, difficulty in urination and pain appear. However, the treatment of cystitis did not improve until she received physical therapy to relax the pelvic floor muscles.

When women urinate, sitting posture can reduce pelvic floor pressure more than squatting posture, and avoid urination disorder and pelvic floor dysfunction caused by pelvic floor muscle tension.

The patient has long-term improper urination posture, and the pelvic floor muscles are tense due to compression, which leads to unclean urination, dysuria, frequent urination, overactive bladder and urinary incontinence. At first he thought it was caused by cystitis, but he didn't get better after corresponding treatment. Chen, director of the comprehensive pelvic function care center of the Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University of Medical Sciences and an obstetrician, said that even because of muscle tension, the patient's pain index will reach 7 (the pain index of childbirth is 10), which will cause pain and easily lead to "sexual deficiency".

External magnetic wave therapy for improve pelvic dysfunction

For the treatment of patients with pelvic dysfunction, at present, in addition to medical treatment covered by medical insurance, it is more important to stretch, * * and relax muscles through physical therapy. Clinically, patients are generally advised to use Kegel exercise to strengthen pelvic muscles, reduce the sensitivity of pelvic nerves and nerves, and improve frequent urination and urgency through electrotherapy paid by medical insurance.

However, Kegel exercise is very difficult, and 70% of patients can't do it. Some electrotherapy needs to take off pants and put in electrode equipment, which often makes many patients feel embarrassed. However, physical therapist Lai said that there is an external magnetic wave therapeutic instrument without undressing, which uses the magnetoelectric principle to penetrate the high-density magnetic field into the pelvic floor and activate the muscles and nerves deep in the pelvic floor. In view of different pelvic floor dysfunction, different electrical frequencies are used to enhance pelvic floor muscle strength, relax spasmodic muscles or inhibit the symptoms of overactive bladder, so as to achieve the function of restoring normal urination. At present, extracorporeal magnetic wave therapy needs to be paid at its own expense.

Squatting in the toilet is the best urination posture.

In addition to drug therapy and physical therapy, if you want to improve pelvic dysfunction caused by improper urination posture, Lai's physiotherapist suggests starting with correct urination posture and cooperating with behavioral therapy.

When squatting in the toilet, the pressure on the pelvic floor muscles is the least, which is the best urination posture.

If you are not used to squatting, you can sit on the toilet, but don't squat or let * * * hang.

People who are worried about the bacteria in the toilet seat cushion in public places can wipe it with disinfectant before use.

When sitting on the toilet, don't pad your toes to increase pelvic pressure. It is suggested to step on a small bench to reduce the tension of pelvic muscles.

Don't use force when urinating, and don't rush to empty urine. At normal speed, pelvic muscles will not be more tense.
