Patient's question:
I initially thought the urinary pain was caused by the heat from the upper body, but in the past two days, the pain has occurred more frequently. I took the time to go to a hospital for a check-up, and they said it was a prostatic cyst. What are the causes of this condition?Doctor's answer:
The causative pathogens and transmission routes of prostatic abscess are essentially the same as those of acute bacterial prostatitis. Most believe that the disease is caused by pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus aureus, or Corynebacterium diphtheriticum. Due to the inflammation affecting the excretion around the prostatic acini, the acini become purulent and rupture, leading to the formation of microabscesses of varying sizes. Later, these microabscesses may merge or shrink, ultimately forming a prostatic abscess.Once a male is diagnosed with a prostatic cyst, he should seek immediate medical attention at a formal hospital. The primary goal of treatment is to eliminate inflammation and drain the pus. Do not delay treatment. For patients with prostatic cysts, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility.
