What treatment is needed for prostatic calcifications?

Patient's question:

Enhanced CT examination revealed that the liver is prone to cysts, a right kidney cyst, and prostatic calcifications (suffered from prostatitis three years ago, which healed on its own). What kind of treatment is needed? What should be noted in daily diet and living? The patient is a 45-year-old male.

Doctor's answer:

Follow-up cysts in the kidney do not require special treatment, and data should be monitored periodically. If it is not lower than 4 centimeters, it can be left alone. If it is lower than 4 centimeters, needle aspiration treatment can be considered. Prostate calcification requires further testing for prostate tumor markers to rule out the possibility of malignancy, and surgical treatment is recommended. There are no special dietary requirements—just maintain a normal, light diet. It is important to keep emotions stable and avoid excessive emotional fluctuations.
