Patient's question:
These past few days, my lower abdomen has been a bit painful, especially when I go to the bathroom. Today, the hospital examination said it was a prostatic cyst. I don't understand, so I want to ask, is it treatable to have a male prostatic cyst?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts are caused by cystic changes in the prostate gland due to congenital or acquired reasons. Common symptoms include urgency, frequency, difficulty urinating, thin urine stream, urinary retention, etc. Smaller, asymptomatic cysts may not require treatment, while larger cysts or symptomatic small cysts can be treated surgically or with needle puncture therapy. In addition to treating prostatic cysts, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate the recovery process.
