Patient's question:
I always feel that the area of my prostate isn't very comfortable. After checking, it was found that there are calcifications present. The doctor said it doesn't require treatment, but I am very worried, so I want to consult. Please ask: How does prostate calcification occur?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is a scar left behind after the prostate undergoes repeated inflammation and fibrosis, which may lead to the recurrence of prostatic calculi. It is generally diagnosed through a careful ultrasound examination. If the calcification is small and asymptomatic, it usually does not require special treatment, but it is important to prevent the recurrence of fibrosis and stones. It is advisable to avoid overexertion and prolonged sitting or standing, as well as to enhance the body's immune resistance to prevent recurrent prostatitis. The calcification foci should be reduced. Prostatic calcification tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital immediately and consider treatment based on the examination results.
