Patient's question:
Hello, I have an uncle who has always been very healthy and has never heard of any illness or pain. But recently, he said he often felt the urge to urinate. When he went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said he suffers from a prostatic cyst. I would like to ask if this condition is dangerous and whether it can be cured?Doctor's answer:
I don't know what your symptoms are like. If the prostatic cyst is large, it may cause a feeling of soreness and fullness in the perineum, mainly by compressing the urethra and affecting urination, leading to difficulty or inconvenience in urination. When this occurs, the main treatment method is surgical intervention, and no medication is required. Currently, surgical methods mainly involve procedures similar to transurethral resection of the prostate, where the cyst is removed or partially removed. Wishing you good health!
