Patient's question:
What is prostatic calcification and how is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is caused by previous prostatitis, leaving behind fibrotic patches after healing. Prostatic calcification indicates that there was inflammation in the past, which is now inactive. If there are no symptoms, treatment is not necessary. If it leads to urinary difficulties, it is important to seek medical follow-up promptly. For patients with prostatic calcification, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely symptomatic treatment and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
