How is prostatic calcification best treated?

Patient's question:

How to treat prostatic calcification? Can I be treated in the hospital where I am? How is prostatic calcification treated? I would like to ask how to treat prostatic calcification. Recently, I have had a hidden pain in the epididymis, and after examination, I was diagnosed with prostatic calcification. I want to know how to treat it better?

Doctor's answer:

Prostatic calcification and fibrosis are scars left behind after recurrent prostatic inflammation and scarring. They are often precursors to prostatic calculi. Prostatic cysts are more commonly found in adults, with diabetics being particularly susceptible. Clinical manifestations may include urinary or bowel obstruction, with urinary obstruction often leading to acute urinary retention. At times, purulent secretions may discharge from the urethra. Digital rectal examination may reveal a vibrating sensation in the prostate, though this is often only present in later stages. Occasionally, abscesses may rupture into the urethra, rectum, perineum, or periurethral space, causing connective tissue inflammation. In daily life, many details also require coordination with medical treatment. It is recommended to pay attention to hygiene and seek early medical examination and treatment after ruling out other interfering factors.
