Patient's question:
During the routine physical examination at my workplace, it was found that I have prostatic calcification. However, I haven't felt any discomfort either. Since there is an issue, I still hope to get some treatment. Could you please advise what I should eat for prostatic calcification?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is caused by previous prostatitis, which leaves behind fibrotic patches after healing. Prostatic calcification indicates that there was inflammation in the past, which is now inactive. If there are no discomfort symptoms, treatment is generally not necessary. It is important to pay attention to avoiding overexertion, working overtime, and maintaining a regular lifestyle to prevent colds. Colds and overexertion can easily lead to a weakened immune system, making it more prone to recurrent prostatitis. Prostatic calcification can be recovered, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications should be used according to symptoms. Additionally, patients should follow a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer. It is hoped that male patients can recover quickly.
