What factors or causes can lead to prostate calcification

Patient's question:

During the physical examination, the ultrasound examination of the prostate indicated the presence of strong echo masses in the prostate, with multiple small calcification spots found. There were no discomforts.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, prostate calcification is the scar left by inflammation in the prostate, a precursor to prostate stones, and a common complication of chronic prostatitis. The calcified foci in the prostate are hiding places for bacteria, and medications, microwaves, and other treatments cannot remove them. This is also one of the factors or causes contributing to the recurring nature of chronic prostatitis and its difficulty to treat.
