Patient's question:
Feeling a strong urge to urinate, but when going to the toilet, it feels like there isn't much urine. Sometimes it's just a drop or two. During morning urination, I even noticed that my urine was split. After consulting, it seems to be a prostatic cyst. I would like to ask: How is a prostatic cyst treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello! How long has it been? Do you have any symptoms such as difficulty urinating, urinary urgency, frequent urination, straining during urination, thin urine stream, or urinary retention? Smaller, asymptomatic cysts may not require treatment, while larger cysts or symptomatic small cysts can be treated surgically. When there is a significant amount of pus, drainage through cyst is preferred. For less pus, needle puncture treatment can be used. Avoid prolonged sitting, long bowel movements, and drink plenty of water. Pay attention to, eat easily digestible foods. Avoid spicy food and alcohol. Maintain regular bowel movements. Since I cannot examine you in person, I cannot fully understand your condition. You should follow the guidance of your doctor at the hospital for treatment. For patients with prostatic cysts, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive treatment promptly based on their symptoms and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy food. Wish you a speedy recovery!
