Patient's question:
I always feel that the area of my prostate is not very comfortable. After checking, it was found that there are calcifications present. The doctor said that there is no need for treatment, but I am very worried, so I want to consult. Please ask: How should the treatment be 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. If the issue is solely prostatic calcification, treatment is not required, as medication is ineffective. If there is prostatitis, treatment for prostatitis should be administered. For patients with prostatic calcification, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
