Patient's question:
Male, there is no discomfort in the body, but the physical examination at the unit said I have prostatic calcification? How is it better to treat prostatic calcification?Doctor's answer:
Fibrosis in the prostate is difficult to detect, but it is a precursor to prostate stones. Prostate stones are often accompanied by chronic prostatitis, and these inflammations can generally only be seen through careful ultrasound examinations. Prostatic calcification is caused by previous prostatitis, leaving behind fibrotic patches after healing. It usually leads to difficulties in urination. If prostate calcification or stones reappear, treatment is necessary. Fibrosis can expand into stones, causing various symptoms. Some patients may have symptoms that persist for a long time and cannot be completely resolved. A comprehensive and careful examination is needed to determine if there are stones or fibrosis. Without treating the stones or fibrosis, it is difficult for prostatitis to heal completely on its own.
