Patient's question:
I once suffered from prostatitis and went to the hospital for treatment. After taking medication, it was cured and has not recurred recently. During a recent medical check-up at the hospital, I was told that I have prostate calcification. Why would there be prostate calcification?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is a scar left behind by prostatic inflammation, and after healing, fibrotic patches remain. Prostatic calcification can foster bacteria, leading to urinary difficulties. It should not be ignored. It is important to seek medical follow-up promptly. Going to a regular, professional hospital for follow-up ensures greater safety and reliability. Prostatic calcification can be alleviated, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
