How should prostatic calcification be treated?

Patient's question:

How is prostatic calcification treated? When our unit conducted a health check-up, I was stunned when I saw the results. It said there was prostatic calcification, and to pay attention to aspects such as diet and lifestyle. What is this disease, what are its effects, and what treatment methods should be used?

Doctor's answer:

Prostatic cysts are more commonly recurrent in adults, and diabetics are more prone to recurrence. The clinical manifestations include urinary intestinal obstruction or bowel intestinal obstruction, and urinary intestinal obstruction often leads to acute urinary retention. Sometimes, purulent secretions may flow from the urethra. Digital rectal examination can detect a vibrating sensation in the prostate, but it often appears in the later stages. Occasionally, abscesses may rupture into the urethra, rectum, perineum, or periurethral space, causing connective tissue inflammation. However, some patients may not have fever, primarily showing lower urinary tract obstruction, and many patients also have epididymitis and orchitis.
