Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for a physical examination and found that I had a prostatic cyst. I want to learn more about this disease. What are the causes of prostatic cysts?Doctor's answer:
Prostate cysts are formed by the blockage of ducts or glandular tubes in the prostate, leading to the accumulation of prostatic secretions. If a prostate cyst recurs, it can obstruct the urethra, causing difficulties in urination, recurring symptoms such as urinary urgency, dysuria, strained urination, and thin urine stream, severely endangering men's health. Therefore, it is crucial to seek timely treatment if diagnosed with a prostate cyst. Prostate cysts are often associated with secondary nerve inflammation or stones. Under long-term, repeated inflammatory stimulation, localized cysts can form a focus, and if not treated promptly, there is a risk of cancer transformation.
