Patient's question:
Recently, I have been experiencing symptoms such as frequent urination, urgent urination, and painful urination. Difficulty urinating, increased nocturia, and pain/pressure in the perineum are distressing and uncomfortable symptoms. In severe cases, the condition can lead to sexual dysfunction, causing inconvenience and pain in the patient's daily life and work. Later, I was diagnosed with prostate calcification at the hospital.What kind of help is needed: What harms do patients with prostate calcification suffer from?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, if prostatitis is not treated in a timely manner, it can lead to prostate hyperplasia, which affects the bladder outlet, preventing the urine from being completely emptied, resulting in residual urine. Residual urine is an excellent medium for bacterial growth, and with the compromised defense mechanism of the bladder mucosa, it is highly prone to causing urinary tract infections such as pyelonephritis. If the treatment is not thorough at this stage, it may progress from pyelonephritis or hydronephrosis to nephritis, and ultimately to uremia. Wishing you good health!
