Patient's question:
Dear Director of Internal Medicine,I am 25 years old and a male. During a routine company health check-up, the ultrasound examination revealed fibrosis of the prostate. I would like to consult about what to do with the calcified nodules in the prostate. Should I undergo a comprehensive examination, or is conservative treatment recommended?
Doctor's answer:
Calcifications in the prostate are often caused by prostatitis. According to the doctor's guidance, many medications can be taken for conservative treatment. Generally, it is mainly caused by long-term sedentary lifestyle or long-term consumption of spicy and irritating foods that cause stomach upset. It can also be supplemented with traditional Chinese medicine for conditioning. During the treatment period, it is recommended to have a light diet, drink more water, avoid long periods of sitting, do not hold urine, and pay close attention to careful observation.
