Patient's question:
Main symptoms: NoneOnset time: None
Laboratory test results: B: Prostate calcification foci
Doctor's answer:
Prostatic calcification and fibrosis are scars left after inflammation heals in the prostate, often indicating the early stages of prostatic calculi. Prostatic calculi are frequently accompanied by chronic prostatitis, and these lesions are usually detectable through ultrasound examinations. Due to the unique anatomical structure of the prostate, there are generally no effective treatments for calcification or stones. Bacteria can thrive on calcified (fibrotic) stones and calculi, making them a contributing factor or cause for recurrent prostatitis, which should not be overlooked.Recommendations:
- Avoid overexertion and staying up late; maintain a regular lifestyle and daily routine. Prevent colds, as fatigue and colds can weaken the immune system, making it easier to experience recurrent prostatitis.
- Avoid spicy foods (e.g., seafood, especially shrimp), alcohol (as it can trigger recurrent prostatitis), and smoking.
- Drink plenty of water, urinate frequently, and keep bowel and bladder movements smooth to help expel prostatic secretions.
- Avoid prolonged inactivity; when driving for long periods, ensure the seat is well-ventilated, take breaks to move and hydrate, and urinate regularly.
- Engage in regular physical exercise to improve blood circulation, aiding local inflammation absorption. Maintain a nutrient-rich diet to boost the immune system and enhance disease resistance.
Lifestyle Management:
- Consume fewer meat products and acidic foods (e.g., eggs, cheese, desserts, tuna, flounder, etc.), as excessive intake can lead to an acidic constitution, increasing susceptibility to various diseases.
- Eat more nuts (raw pumpkin seeds, nuts) and plenty of vegetables, fruits, and bee pollen.
