Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing prostatitis, and I wonder how to treat it effectively.Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is fibrotic patches left after the healing of prostatic inflammation. Prostatic calcification indicates that there was inflammation in the past, which is now inactive. If there are no symptoms, treatment is not necessary. Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that prostatic calcification and prostatitis have the same causes, both resulting from blood and qi stagnation and lower jiao damp-heat. Treatment should involve clearing damp-heat and promoting blood circulation to resolve stagnation, as well as softening and dispersing hard masses. There are many treatment methods for prostatodynia, but since the patient's condition varies, the diagnostic approach may differ. Therefore, patients need timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive targeted treatment.
