Patient's question:
Previously, during a physical examination, I was found to have prostatic calcification. Since there were no symptoms, I didn't take it seriously. However, recently I've been feeling unwell and wondering if it could be related to this prostatic calcification. I would like to ask: What is the best treatment for prostatic calcification?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is one of the common prostatic inflammatory conditions in men. It actually refers to the deposition of calcium salts in local tissues, which can be a normal physiological process or caused by many diseases, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia. If it is simple prostatic calcification without other diseases, treatment is not necessary. Regular exercise and avoiding spicy foods are sufficient. If it is caused by other diseases, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia or prostatitis, symptomatic anti-inflammatory treatment can be administered. For patients with prostatic calcification, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it may affect fertility.
