Patient's question:
I recently had a cold, and after recovering from it, I don't know why there started to be a discharge from my urethral opening. Additionally, I've been experiencing persistent lower back pain, which has become increasingly severe recently. My friend suggested that this might be due to a prostatic cyst. Could you please tell me: What is the treatment for a prostatic cyst?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, how can men treat prostatic cysts? Prostatic cysts are cystic changes that occur again due to congenital or acquired reasons of the prostate gland. Congenital cysts are caused by incomplete atrophy of the, fusion at the midline, forming a deep diverticulum or cyst at the bladder base, with an opening at the posterior part of the prostatic urethra. Prostatic cysts can be secondarily infected with neurons and stones. Larger cysts can compress the urethra, leading to urinary difficulties. Common symptoms include urgency, frequency, difficulty urinating, thin urine stream, and urinary retention. It is recommended that you visit a formal hospital for follow-up to avoid delaying the condition. For patients with prostatic cysts, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If not treated in a timely manner, it may affect fertility.
