Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have frequent urination and a burning sensation during urination. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, I was diagnosed with prostate calcification. What are the treatments available for prostate calcification?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is caused by previous prostatitis, leaving behind fibrotic patches after healing. Prostatic calcification indicates that there was inflammation in the past, which is now inactive. If there are no symptoms, treatment is not necessary. If it leads to urinary difficulties, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Prostatic calcification tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is crucial to actively seek diagnosis from professional and reputable hospitals and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
