Patient's question:
I feel very uncomfortable in my private area. That feeling is indescribable, and it's affecting my work and life significantly. It's very troublesome. I'm asking about prostatic calcification. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification and fibrosis are scars left behind after recurrent prostatitis, indicating the likelihood of prostatic calculi. Prostatic calculi are often accompanied by chronic prostatitis, which can typically be detected through careful ultrasound examinations. Due to the unique structure of the prostate, there are generally no effective treatments for recurrent fibrosis or calculi. Bacteria tend to grow on calcified (fibrotic) stones and calculi, making them a recurring cause of prostatitis that should not be ignored.There are several treatment options for prostatitis, but the specific approach depends on the patient's symptoms. Therefore, it is crucial for patients to seek a prompt diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
