Patient's question:
Hello expert, I have had prostatitis for many years. When I went to the hospital for a check-up recently, I was also found to have prostate stones. Could you please tell me what the hazards of prostate stones are?Doctor's answer:
Hello, prostatic calculi combined with chronic prostatitis can manifest as pain in areas such as the lower back, perineum, scrotum, penis, or anus. The pain in the anus may worsen during defecation. There may be secretions at the external urethral orifice, and the pain in the perineum may intensify under pressure. When accompanied by posterior urethritis, symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria may occur, sometimes with hematuria, particularly terminal hematuria. There may also be sexual dysfunction. It is recommended that you seek medical examination and treatment at a regular hospital. Whether surgical treatment is necessary will depend on the examination results. I hope my answer is helpful to you.
