How to keep healthy while sleeping

Many friends may think that sleeping is a simple thing, but for people who suffer from long-term insomnia, sleeping becomes very difficult. There are many benefits of sleep. Sleeping can allow our body to rest and protect our brain. In addition, sleep can also enhance the body's immunity and promote growth and development. For male friends, the role of sleep is even more obvious. Below we will introduce some methods for men to maintain their health through sleep.

Prone

Many men will ask, "Is it bad to sleep on my stomach? Can I sleep soundly on my stomach?" In fact, sleeping on my stomach, that is, lying on my stomach, not only compresses the internal organs, causing breathing problems and damaging the functions of the internal organs over time, but also compresses the reproductive system: the penis is compressed, which hinders blood circulation and can easily cause frequent nocturnal emissions, causing symptoms such as dizziness and fatigue in men, affecting their normal work and life; the scrotum is compressed, and the heat cannot be effectively dissipated, which will increase the temperature of the scrotum, have an adverse effect on the spermatogenesis function of the testicles, and reduce male fertility. Therefore, men who have not yet achieved "fatherhood" should pay special attention and must not lie on their stomachs.

Left side lying

Since the heart is located on the left side of the body, when men sleep on their left side, their heart will be compressed, causing them to toss and turn and sleep uneasily, which can easily lead to poor sleep quality. Moreover, when the heart is under pressure, the blood circulation of the male body will slow down, including the blood circulation of the reproductive organs. When the reproductive organs do not get sufficient blood supply for a long time, it may cause male erectile dysfunction.

Right side lying

Sleeping on your stomach is not good, and lying on your left side is not good either, so is lying on your right side good? Indeed, lying on the right side will neither compress the heart nor the reproductive organs, and it is considered a better sleeping position, but not every man is suitable for lying on the right side. Medical experts have found that whether you sleep on your left side or right side, it may lead to an accident - testicular torsion.

The testicles "live" in the scrotum and are connected to the body on each side by a tissue called the spermatic cord. The spermatic cord has blood vessels that provide blood circulation to the testicles. When men sleep in a side-lying position, the testicles and penis are squeezed between their legs, and the pressure they bear is much more obvious than when they stand. Some men, especially teenagers, move around in their sleep and twist their legs, which may "twist" the spermatic cord into a ball, causing twisting and "knotting". Since the blood vessels that supply nutrients to the testicles and excrete metabolites pass through the spermatic cord, once the spermatic cord is twisted, the testicles will not receive nutrients and metabolites cannot be excreted. If the twisting time exceeds 12 hours, the testicles may suffer from ischemia and necrosis.

Therefore, sleeping on the right side is not the best sleeping position for men. If men insist on sleeping on the right side, they should also pay attention to their "sleeping posture" and avoid moving or twisting.

Supine

Sleeping prone is not good, and sleeping on the side is not good either. So, which sleeping position is best for men? In fact, lying on your back is the most suitable sleeping position for men. Men should choose to sleep in supine position with their legs naturally apart. This will not compress the internal organs and reproductive organs, but also avoid scrotal torsion. It can give the scrotum and penis ample space to move, effectively dissipate heat, and promote blood circulation in the reproductive organs, which is most beneficial to the health of the reproductive system and sexual function.

In the above article, we introduced the many benefits of sleep. We know that sleep can not only delay aging and promote growth and development, but also protect the brain and eliminate fatigue. The above article introduces in detail the methods for men to maintain their health through sleep. I believe everyone has mastered it.
