Inflammation and erectile dysfunction can occur at any age. It has always been talked about as a problem of older men. That is partly true. However, if a man remains healthy, it doesn't matter what his age, he should not have ED.It's the underlying health issues caused by chronic inflammation that cause the problem. Usually as men age they develop plaque build up in the arteries causing heart disease, stroke, diabetes and yes also ED.
Many of men's erectile dysfunction problems are caused by their daily habits.
Inflammation And Erectile Dysfunction Can Be Caused By:
- Smoking
- Too Much Alcohol
- Eating Inflammatory Foods
- Obesity
- Gum Disease
- And Lack of Exercise
If men are diabetic they have a good chance of having erectile problems. Also if they've had prostate cancer, or bladder surgery, their chances of having ED are greater.
Fortunately there are many treatment options available today since the invention of Viagra and other drugs like it. Another thing Viagra has done is, it has brought this disorder out of the closet. There isn't such a stigma attached to it.
In the past men would discuss their heart surgery, or their diabetes, but erectile dysfunction was never mentioned.
In addition to Viagra and Cialis and others, their are also many herbal remedies on the market for ED. You see the commercials on television promoting them.
One thing about the herbal remedies is they are natural products, unlike the prescriptions that come with a long list of warnings.
If you have erectile dysfunction talk with your doctor. He's heard it before and you should have your inflammation checked out. You can ask for a c-reactive protein test which is a marker for chronic inflammation. It's a simple blood test taken at the doctors office.
Remember inflammation and erectile dysfunction could be a signal that something serious is going on inside your body.
Don't waste time--get checked out. Like they used to say---the life you save could be your own.
