Patient's question:
This year, I don't know what's going on. I feel like I'm always urinating frequently and urgently. I've started not paying attention to it, but it's gotten worse. Now I'm having difficulty urinating, with weak urine flow. A few days ago, I went to the hospital for a check-up and found out it's prostate calcification. I don't really understand this condition and don't know what harm it could cause to the body?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is caused by prostatitis, which leads to symptoms such as frequent urination and urgency. The treatment of prostatitis requires avoiding prolonged riding or sitting, preventing overtime work, abstaining from alcohol, and avoiding spicy foods. Conduct routine prostatic fluid tests, prostatic fluid culture and drug sensitivity tests, followed by post-massage urine tests and drug sensitivity tests to confirm if there is a pathogenic bacterial infection. Based on the results, a course of sensitive antibiotics should be administered for one month. During treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor, use medication appropriately, and also adopt a healthy lifestyle and proper diet during the treatment period.
