Patient's question:
I have some prostatitis. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, it was found that there was also a condition of prostate calcification. Now the inflammation has been controlled, and there are no major issues, but I am very concerned about this prostate calcification problem. Please ask: How should I treat prostate calcification?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is a scar left by prostatic inflammation, a precursor to prostatic calculi, and a common complication of chronic prostatitis! The calcified foci in the prostate are hiding places for bacteria, and medications, microwaves, and other treatments cannot completely remove them. This is also one of the reasons why chronic prostatitis tends to recur and is difficult to treat. It is recommended that you promptly visit a regular hospital for a thorough examination and then receive targeted treatment! In daily life, you should also pay attention to: drinking more water, avoiding long periods of sitting, staying active, refraining from spicy and irritating foods, quitting smoking and alcohol, and moderating sexual activity. Prostatic calcification is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at professional and regular hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on the examination results.
