What is the prone position?

Modern people like to sleep with their legs spread out, because this sleeping position is more relaxed and free. According to research, sleeping posture also has an impact on human health. A good sleeping posture can allow our body to rest well, but a bad sleeping posture can cause various heart diseases. So what is a good sleeping posture? Next, let me introduce what good sleeping postures are.

Many male friends like to sleep on their stomachs. This prone sleeping position not only easily compresses the internal organs and causes breathing difficulties, but also has a certain impact on the reproductive system. Especially for young people, the harm is greater.

First of all, sleeping on your stomach for a long time will compress the scrotum, stimulate the penis, and easily cause frequent nocturnal emission. Frequent nocturnal emissions can cause dizziness, back pain, fatigue, and lack of concentration. In severe cases, it can affect normal work and life. Young people are sensitive to penile stimulation, so they should not adopt this sleeping position. Also, people who have frequent nocturnal emissions should be careful that this sleeping position may aggravate their condition.

In addition, the scrotum is a man's "small refrigerator" and it needs to maintain a constant temperature to facilitate the production of sperm. Sleeping on your stomach will increase the temperature of the scrotum, and it is not easy to dissipate heat in time, so it will also have a certain impact on sperm growth. Young people who have not yet had children should be especially careful.

From a medical point of view, lying on the right side is better. This is because when lying on your back, the body is stretched straight and the muscles of the whole body cannot relax. If your hands are stretched over your head, the muscles of the whole body will become more tense and you will not get a good rest. At the same time, when sleeping on your back, the root of the tongue can easily press on the throat, causing snoring, and saliva can easily flow into the trachea, causing coughing.

When sleeping on your stomach, the chest and abdomen are compressed, which will affect the function of the heart and lungs and even make breathing difficult. At the same time, because the face is compressed when sleeping on your stomach, the blood circulation in the face is poor, which will make the face dark and yellow over time, affecting its appearance.

A good sleeping posture varies from person to person. Everyone has a different physique, so the corresponding good sleeping posture is different. For patients with otitis media, they should choose to lie on the right side. Patients with different diseases choose different postures, so we must always pay attention to our physical health so that we can choose a sleeping position that suits us in time.
