Is skipping rope good for the prostate?

Patient's question:

Hello, I am 37 years old. Recently, I was diagnosed with high-intensity prostatitis, and I have been taking medication for treatment. However, the doctor also suggested that I do more exercise, which is good for prostatitis. I would like to ask if jumping rope is beneficial for prostatitis? What kind of exercise is best for treating prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

Jump rope activities have a certain effect on enhancing physical fitness. When physical fitness decreases, the body's resistance will naturally decline, effectively preventing these diseases. For prostatitis, a good activity is Kegels (pelvic floor exercises). Through Kegel exercises, a certain squeezing and massage effect can be produced on the prostate, which helps in the complete recovery of prostatitis. At the same time, it is advisable to eat less spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking, and avoid alcohol. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication in a timely manner and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
