Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing frequent urination, needing to go to the bathroom several times a night, and sometimes there's also some pain in the perineum. After a thorough examination at the hospital, they said it's a prostatic cyst. I'm seeking help from experts.Doctor's answer:
Prostatic abscess can be treated with local heat therapy. Simple and commonly used methods include applying paraffin wax or hot water bags to the lower abdomen and perineum for cold compress, which can enhance local blood circulation, promote the confinement of the abscess, and reduce inflammation. However, burns should be prevented. Smaller cysts without symptoms can be followed up with careful observation, and aspiration can be performed through the perineum or rectum, but it is prone to infection and recurrence. Larger cysts can be surgically removed through the posterior pubic or perineal approach. For cysts that have ruptured into the bladder, surgical removal through the bladder or transurethral resection can be performed to remove most of the top of the cyst, ensuring adequate drainage.
