Patient's question:
It is said that prostatitis can easily lead to prostate calcification. I had prostatitis two years ago and have recovered, but recently my prostate has been uncomfortable again. I suspect I might have developed prostate calcification. Is this condition harmful?Doctor's answer:
What are the hazards of prostate calcification According to what you said, it is the scar left behind after the prostate undergoes recurrent inflammation and scarring. If symptoms of prostate calcification or stones reappear, immediate treatment is necessary. Fibrosis can expand into stones, triggering various symptoms. Some patients may find it impossible to completely eliminate symptoms for a long time. A comprehensive and thorough examination is needed to determine if there are stones or fibrosis. Without treating the stones or fibrosis, it is difficult to achieve a complete recovery from prostate disease. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the causes of prostate stones, fibrosis, and cysts are the same, all stemming from blood and qi stagnation and lower urinary tract damp-heat. Therefore, it is advisable for you to go to a regular hospital for a comprehensive and thorough examination.
