What are the treatment methods for prostate stones?

Patient's question:

Age recently these days don't know how to always feel very uncomfortable when urinating. After going to the hospital for a thorough examination, the doctor said that I have developed prostate stones. What are the treatments for prostate stones?

Doctor's answer:

1. Traditional surgical treatment
The most common method of traditional surgical treatment is transurethral resection of the prostate and stones. It is often used for younger patients to prevent the occurrence of genital dysfunction, and it can also be used for the elderly and weak to reduce the heavy stimulation on the body. The disadvantage is that it is difficult to completely remove the stones. For deep-seated prostate stones and those prone to recurrence, transperineal total prostatectomy can be used to remove the prostate and stones, and bilateral seminal vesicles can be resected if necessary. If the stones are large or frequently recurring, suprapubic prostate and stone resection should be adopted. However, if the patient has periprostatic inflammation, the surgery is more difficult.
