Patient's question:
I came back to the urology department due to difficulty urinating. After the doctor's inquiry, they prescribed a cystoscopy for a thorough examination. The results indicated that I have a prostatic cyst. I would like to ask how to deal with a prostatic cyst?Doctor's answer:
After the volume of the prostate cyst decreases, it may compress the posterior urethra, leading to additional compression symptoms such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, hesitation to urinate, and incomplete urination. If the prostate cyst is caused by an infection, active anti-infection treatment is required. Conduct culture and drug sensitivity tests to determine the sensitive antibiotics based on the test results. If the treatment is not effective or the prostate cyst is not caused by an infection, cyst fluid can be aspirated and medication can be injected for treatment. If the prostate cyst recurs frequently or the treatment is not effective, surgical removal may be necessary if required. It is recommended to maintain a light diet and avoid overworking to reduce pressure on the prostate and alleviate symptoms.
