Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have frequent urination and a burning sensation during urination. After examination, I was diagnosed with prostate calcification. How can I treat prostate calcification effectively?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is commonly seen in chronic prostatitis, and chronic prostatitis can lead to varying degrees of prostatic hyperplasia. If the hyperplasia is severe, it may cause urinary retention. It is recommended to seek treatment from a formal large hospital's urology department. Drug treatment, even with strict adherence, often yields unsatisfactory results. Surgical treatment can alleviate symptoms of urinary retention. For patients with prostatic calcification, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
