Patient's question:
My uncle has been feeling particularly painful in both sides of his groin since this spring, especially when walking, which intensifies the pain. His walking posture looks very strange. Moreover, his scrotum also hurts. After a thorough examination, it was said that he has prostatic calcification. Is prostatic calcification serious?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic fibrosis in males is typically a calcified lesion left over from the treatment of prostatitis. If there are no symptoms, special treatment is not required. However, if there are symptoms of pain, it is essential to seek medical attention as soon as possible to undergo surgery and prevent the formation of prostate stones. It is still necessary to determine the exact cause of the pain—to check whether the prostatitis has not been completely cured, whether there is an issue of prostate hyperplasia, and other factors. Patients should face the dangers of prostatitis and actively undergo thorough examinations and treatments. Avoid delaying medical visits. If the prostatitis does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
