Patient's question:
I recently had some physical discomfort, mainly lower back pain, but I didn't know how to treat it. Since I had a previous lower back injury, I went to the hospital for treatment. The detailed examination results showed that I have prostatic calcification. I have never heard of this condition before.Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification foci are hiding places for bacteria. Medications, microwaves, and other methods cannot completely remove them, which is also the reason why chronic prostatitis recurs repeatedly and is difficult to heal on its own. After prostatitis improves, fibrosis does not require treatment. Prostatic calcification foci may be a problem related to stones, but in addition to stones, other causes such as prostatic tuberculosis, recurrent prostatic injury, parasitic eggs, and calcified tumors can also lead to prostatic calcification foci. Moreover, normal individuals can also have mild prostatic calcification foci. In daily life, it is important to pay attention to self-care and avoid spicy foods.
