Patient's question:
Five days ago, I started experiencing frequent urination. After urinating, I immediately felt the urge to go again, but when I tried to urinate again, it took a long time to start. On the third day, I still felt like I wasn't fully emptying my bladder. Over the past two days, I've been drinking a lot of water and have been urinating roughly every 20 minutes. There was a delay before urination, lasting about 10 seconds, but I no longer feel the sensation of incomplete urination, and there's no pain or burning sensation. This morning, I drank a bit more, and there was a brief, about 30-second, lower abdominal pain when I wasn't urinating.Today, I had a color Doppler ultrasound and a urinalysis at the hospital. The ultrasound only showed a prostatic cyst (size 382417, with a clear outline and a visible liquid dark area inside, about 43 in size). Everything else, like the ureters and kidneys, was fine. The urinalysis was also normal. The doctor said it was nothing to worry about and told me to drink more water. However, I've had sexual intercourse twice in the past two years, specifically five days ago after masturbation that night, and since then...
Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to help you solve your problem. You must have had some urinary tract infections before. Drinking more water and urinating more can help clean the urethra. Small cysts don't need to be treated. Prostate cysts are generally divided into congenital and acquired ones, and they usually don't interfere with your health. Usually, no special treatment is needed. If treatment is required, surgery is the option. After drinking more water, you should also avoid sexual activity in the future.In addition, during the treatment of prostatitis, besides symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet and keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of the prostate.
