Patient's question:
Is it easy to treat prostate stones?Doctor's answer:
Hello, have you been diagnosed? Prostatic calculi generally refer to stones originating in the prostatic acini and ducts. The etiology is generally considered to be related to urinary reflux, calcium, salts, and the stagnation of secretions. It is more common in middle-aged and elderly men over 40. The obstruction caused by stones and the stimulation of the ducts and glandular tissues can lead to prostatic inflammation, causing congestion and desquamation of the acinar epithelium and fibrosis of the glandular tissues. If the inflammation progresses or becomes purulent, it can cause periprostatic inflammation. Severe infections may even lead to the formation of prostatic abscesses or even rupture into the perineum, rectum, or urethra.It is recommended that you visit our hospital's Prostate Diagnosis and Treatment Center. 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 antibiotic treatment, attention should be paid to the drainage of prostatic fluid, and regular prostatic massage should be performed to alleviate the obstruction of prostatic fluid caused by stones. For patients with prostatic calculi combined with benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate surgery can be performed to relieve urinary tract obstruction and achieve the goal of stone removal.
Wishing you good health!
