Patient's question:
I had prostatitis a year ago, which improved after treatment. In a recent physical examination, it was found that my prostate has calcification. Actually, I haven't had any discomforting symptoms.Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification is caused by previous prostatitis, leaving behind calcified spots after healing. Prostatic calcification indicates that there was inflammation in the past, which is now dormant. If there are no symptoms, treatment is not necessary. If it causes difficulty in urination, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. It can be treated. As everyone knows, prostatic calculi can cause significant harm to patients, so it is crucial to receive treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, avoiding foods, and maintaining a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
