Patient's question:
Prostatic calcification. What should be done?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification and fibrosis are scars left behind after recurrent prostatitis and scarring in the prostate. They are often precursors to prostatic calculi. Prostatic calculi are frequently accompanied by chronic prostatitis, and these inflammatory conditions can usually be detected through careful ultrasound examinations. Due to the unique structure of the prostate, there are generally no effective treatments for recurrent fibrosis or calculi.Bacteria tend to grow on calcified (fibrotic) areas and calculi in the prostate, which can lead to recurrent episodes of prostatitis. This makes it an important factor that should not be ignored. Prostatic calcification can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during the treatment.
