Patient's question:
Recently, I got a ureteral calculus. Later, I underwent extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). When urinating, I passed some gravel-like particles. After that, the abdominal pain also subsided. During a follow-up visit to the hospital, the doctor found a glowing mass at the urethral opening with ultrasound and asked if I was experiencing difficulty urinating. I said no, and then he mentioned it could be prostatic calcification, but couldn't confirm.Doctor's answer:
In general, calcification in the human body is often caused by late-stage repair of local damage and inflammation, or by the deposition of local electrolyte calcium salts, among other factors.Advice: Excessive masturbation can easily lead to prostatitis, but not all cases of prostatitis will present with symptoms.
