How big does a prostate stone need to be for surgery? What actions should be avoided to prevent the formation of stones?Doctor's answer:

If the prostate stone is large, it can obstruct the urethra, leading to urinary retention and affecting normal urination function. In such cases, it is necessary to promptly use surgery to remove the stone for treatment.Patients with prostate stones should pay attention to their diet and maintain good lifestyle and dietary habits. They should also avoid excessive sexual activity and promptly abandon sexual habits to prevent the condition from worsening.
