Patient's question:
At first, I only had prostatitis, which was diagnosed eight months ago. Later, about a month ago, I started feeling uncomfortable when urinating. It wasn't until a few days ago that I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said my prostate was displaced. What are the dangers of prostate displacement?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic ectopia can reappear in different locations, such as the trigone of the bladder, the bladder neck, the muscular layer of the bladder wall, the root of the penis, the distal end of the remnant urachus, and the prostatic part of the urethra. Prostate tissue within the bladder is often misdiagnosed as a bladder tumor. Prostatic ectopia within the prostatic part of the urethra often reappears in the form of "urethral polyps." This condition involving the prostate is difficult to recover from. Friends with this condition should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism. Only by doing so can they boost their confidence in combating the prostate, believing that this will surely lead to recovery.
