How can men treat prostatic cysts?
Doctor's answer:
Larger prostate cysts can be palpated during digital rectal examination, and cysts extending into the urethral lumen can be detected through urethral scope examination. Small cysts extending into the urethral lumen can be removed via transurethral resection; larger cysts require surgical removal. Prostate cysts severely threaten the physical and mental health of men and are prone to recurring episodes, which greatly troubles men and has a serious impact on their mental well-being and work. It is crucial to seek timely treatment for prostate cysts in daily life. For patients with prostate cysts, timely treatment can reduce recurrence, whereas delayed treatment may affect their health condition.
