Does traditional Chinese medicine help relieve prostatic calculi?

Patient's question:

A while ago, I often experienced frequent urination, urgency, and a sense of heaviness during urination. Worried, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with prostatic calculi. A friend suggested using traditional Chinese medicine to alleviate it. Have you heard from several doctors that traditional Chinese medicine is effective for treating prostatic calculi?

Doctor's answer:

Using medication to relieve prostate stones only provides symptomatic relief and cannot fully resolve the issue. If there are no other significant symptoms, relief is not necessary. In this case, it is advisable to drink more water and engage in more physical activity, as improving blood circulation is beneficial for recovery. If the prostate stones are severe and accompanied by significant pain, it is necessary to promptly seek treatment at a relevant hospital for transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) to alleviate the condition.
