Patient's question:
Lately, these past few days, I've been feeling uncomfortable when using the restroom, a bit painful. Usually, I feel a burning sensation at the urethral opening. It's just that I'm restless. I'm only 54 years old this year, could it be that I have prostatitis? If it really is, please ask: How can prostatic cysts be avoided from misdiagnosis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts are formed due to the narrowing of prostatic ducts, leading to blockage and gradual accumulation of contents. If there are no current discomfort symptoms, treatment is not necessary. If the cyst is large or if urinary abnormalities reoccur, surgical treatment can be considered.In daily life, pay attention to regular exercise, avoid prolonged sitting and holding urine, maintain good hygiene of the external genitalia, maintain a regular sexual life, avoid sexual intercourse, drink plenty of water, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, avoid spicy foods, and abstain from smoking and alcohol.
Prostatic cysts can be relieved, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment and use medication appropriately.
