Patient's question:
I once suffered from prostatitis and went to the hospital for treatment. After taking medication, it improved and hasn't recurred since. Recently, I had a physical examination at the hospital and was told I have prostate calcification. Could you please tell me what the clinical symptoms of prostate calcification are?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis calcification in men may present with the following symptoms:1. Frequent, urgent, painful urination, burning sensation in the urethra, difficulty urinating, inability to urinate in drops, sometimes difficulty urinating at night, etc.
2. White discharge from the urethra: When urination ends or defecation occurs, white secretions drip from the urethral opening.
3. Pain: Due to persistent chronic inflammation, severe pressure pain and swelling may appear in areas such as the perineum, anus, and scrotum, often radiating to the pubis, lumbar-sacral region, bilateral inguinal region, and perineum, causing lower limb pain. The symptoms are usually more pronounced in the morning.
4. Physiological changes: Premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, loss of libido, or impotence. Some patients may experience painful ejaculation and hematospermia. In some cases of infertility, chronic prostatitis is a significant cause.
5. Insomnia and dreams, fatigue and dizziness, lack of confidence, depression, and memory loss.
It is recommended to take medication to treat prostatitis and wait and see. If the condition does not improve, seek medical treatment for your prostatic calcification at a hospital.
