Patient's question:
I have had a prostate cyst for several years. I experience lower back pain, general weakness, loss of appetite, dampness in the lower abdomen, and pain during urination every time I go to the toilet. Sometimes I also feel like I can't empty my bladder completely.Doctor's answer:
Prostate cyst, generally believed to be a benign prostatic disease, the cause of onset is unclear, partly due to congenital developmental malformations. When the cyst is small, there are usually no symptoms, and it is often discovered incidentally during a prostate ultrasound. In this case, no special treatment is needed, and periodic follow-up examinations are sufficient. If the cyst decreases significantly and causes compression symptoms, surgical treatment should be considered. It is recommended to follow up at the urology department of a public hospital.
