Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing difficulty urinating, with a blockage, pain from holding it in, and white discharge from the urethral opening. The prostate size is normal, but it's a bit painful, which is very strange. Taking anti-inflammatory medication hasn't helped. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it's prostate calcification. What treatment is needed?Doctor's answer:
The vast majority of patients with late-stage prostatitis have fibrotic plaques. It is recommended that you temporarily adjust your daily routine for prostate health, such as: drinking more water, avoiding long periods of sitting, staying active, refraining from spicy and irritating foods, quitting smoking and alcohol, and moderating sexual activity. Based on a comprehensive evaluation of your condition, if you experience significant symptoms, you should actively seek follow-up treatment at the hospital and take medication as prescribed by your doctor. For patients with prostate calcification, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely and symptomatic treatment.
