Patient's question:
Often appearing with symptoms such as frequent urination, incomplete urination, and difficulty urinating, it is said that it is prostatic calcification. How should prostatic calcification be treated and what preventive measures should be taken?Doctor's answer:
Fibrotic spots in the prostate generally indicate a history of chronic prostatitis that has healed, leaving behind remnants. They simply represent past inflammation and usually do not cause any symptoms currently, nor do they require treatment. Unless there are obvious symptoms such as difficulty urinating or recurrent episodes of prostatitis associated with it, then treatment options like anti-inflammatory medication or surgery may need to be considered. If only calcium spots in the prostate are detected during a careful examination and there are no other symptoms, no treatment is necessary. For patients with prostate calcification, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life while avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
