Non-bacterial prostatitis, treatment cost of prostatic calculi?

Patient's question:

Non-bacterial prostatitis, treatment cost of prostate stones?

Doctor's answer:

Prostatic calcification and fibrosis are scars left after inflammation heals in the prostate, often indicating the precursor to prostatic calculi. Prostatic calculi are frequently accompanied by chronic prostatitis, and these lesions can generally be detected through ultrasound examinations. Due to the unique anatomical structure of the prostate, there is usually no effective treatment for calcification or stone formation. Bacteria tend to thrive on calcified (fibrotic) areas and stones in the prostate, making them a contributing factor or cause for recurrent prostatitis, which should not be overlooked.
