Patient's question:
My second uncle recently said he is feeling extremely unwell. He mentioned that he experiences great pain every day when urinating, always feeling like he can't empty his bladder completely. Sometimes, it takes him over ten minutes to urinate once. Today, he also mentioned a feeling of fullness and pressure in his lower abdomen. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was diagnosed as a prostatic cyst. Is a prostatic cyst urgent?Doctor's answer:
It is important to take prostatic cyst seriously. Some cysts can lead to secondary nerve stones, causing urinary obstruction and resulting in difficulty urinating. In such cases, treatment options may include puncture, cyst fluid extraction, or transurethral surgery to incise the cyst. After the surgery, it is necessary to rest in bed and avoid strenuous activities for a short period. In terms of diet, it is advisable to consume more nutritious foods.
