Patient's question:
I previously had prostatitis, and in the past few years, it has been well-controlled without recurrence. The other day, I planned to go for a follow-up check-up to see if everything was still fine, but the result showed the presence of prostate calcification. I am concerned that this condition might affect my health. Could you please advise where would be a good place to get a prostate calcification check?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is caused by previous prostatitis, leaving behind fibrotic patches after healing. You currently have systemic discomfort symptoms and difficulty urinating, so it is important to take this seriously and seek timely treatment. It is recommended to treat prostatic calcification immediately upon recurrence, as fibrosis can expand into stones, causing various symptoms. Pay attention to avoid overexertion and overtime work, maintain a regular lifestyle, and wish you a speedy recovery! Prostatic calcification can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and avoid prolonged sitting or riding. Pay attention to personal hygiene, and hope male patients can recover quickly!
