Patient's question:
I always feel that the area of my prostate isn't very comfortable. After a check-up, it was found that there are calcifications present. The doctor said there's no need for treatment, but I'm very worried, so I want to consult. Please ask: What are the effects of prostate calcification?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is mostly scars left behind by previous prostatitis inflammation. If the calcification spots are small, they do not require treatment and generally do not affect health. However, if the calcification spots are large, they may lead to recurrent inflammation.In daily life, it is important to stay active, avoid prolonged sitting and holding urine, wear loose underwear, abstain from sexual activity, and maintain a regular and hygienic sexual routine. Drinking plenty of water, eating fresh vegetables and fruits, and avoiding spicy, seafood, high-fat, high-calcium, and high-cholesterol foods is beneficial for prostate health. Avoiding smoking and alcohol also helps maintain prostate health.
Prostatic calcification can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to symptoms. Additionally, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and maintain a proper diet during treatment. We hope male patients can recover quickly.
