Patient's question:
Prostate hyperplasia: What Chinese herbal medicines can be consumed?Doctor's answer:
Hello, prostatic calcification and fibrosis are scars left behind after recurrent prostatitis leads to fibrosis and scarring. 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 anatomical structure of the prostate, there is generally no effective treatment for recurrent fibrosis or calculi. Bacteria tend to grow on calcified (fibrotic) areas and calculi, making them a recurring cause of prostatitis that should not be ignored. Prostatic hyperplasia tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking alcohol, as well as maintain good personal hygiene.
