Patient's question:
My husband is 43 years old this year. Last week, he had a health check-up at his workplace. During the ultrasound examination, a 65mm prostate cyst was found. I would like to ask why prostate cysts might recur?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts are often caused by sedentary lifestyles, where many people sit for long periods without movement, leading to poor blood circulation and the formation of blood clots over time. Long-term consumption of spicy and irritating foods, smoking, and alcohol consumption can also contribute to the development of prostatic cysts. In men, excessive suppression of sexual desire or overindulgence in sexual activity can also trigger them. Additionally, they may be caused by bacterial or fungal infections that spread downward through the urethra. If you suspect you have a prostatic cyst, it is important to visit Koyo Hospital for a thorough examination and diagnosis. Treatment should be administered based on the underlying cause.
