Patient's question:
I recently don't know what's going on, my lower abdomen is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. Is it easy to treat prostatic calculi?Doctor's answer:
Hello, have you been diagnosed? Prostatic calculi generally refer to stones originating from the prostatic acini and ducts. Their etiology is generally considered to be related to urine reflux, calcium, salts, and the stagnation of secretions. They are more common in middle-aged and elderly men over 40. The obstruction caused by stones and the stimulation of the ducts and acini can lead to prostatic inflammation, causing congestion and epithelial desquamation of the acini, as well as fibrosis of the glandular tissue. If the inflammation progresses or becomes purulent, it can lead to periprostatic inflammation. Severe infections may even form prostatic abscesses or break through to the perineum, rectum, or urethra.We recommend that you visit our Prostate Diagnosis and Treatment Center for consultation. The principle of treating prostatic calculi is as follows: For patients with chronic prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis, active symptomatic treatment should be given targeting the inflammation. In addition to using antibiotics, attention should be paid to the drainage of prostatic fluid, and regular prostatic massage should be performed to alleviate the obstruction caused by stones. For patients with prostatic calculi combined with benign prostatic hyperplasia, surgical treatment of the prostate may be considered to relieve urinary tract obstruction and achieve the goal of stone removal.
Wishing you good health!
