As people pay more and more attention to physical and mental health, more and more people have regular physical examinations. Most people are as calm as water during the physical examination. When the physical examination report comes out, the whole person is not well, for fear of seeing any bad results.
Some friends saw that “prostate calcification” was written on the physical examination report. For prostate calcification, many men are not clear.
Prostate calcification, also known as “prostate calcification”, refers to a calcium salt deposit that occurs within the prostate alveoli. Prostate calcification is a common manifestation of the male reproductive system without obvious clinical symptoms, so it is mostly found in prostate imaging examinations such as color Doppler ultrasound, X-ray plain film, CT, and MRI. At present, the etiology of prostate calcification is not yet clear, and it is generally believed that it may be related to factors such as decreased androgen levels, degeneration of prostate tissue, chronic prostatitis, and prostate fluid retention.
Seeing this, everyone should have a simple understanding of prostate calcification. In theory, prostate calcification can induce prostate stones, prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, orchitis and other diseases. So, does this mean that treatment is needed immediately after prostate calcification is detected? Without further ado, let’s take a look and find out.
If there are no obvious symptoms of prostate calcification, no special treatment is required, and patients can be regularly followed up in the urology department. If you have symptoms such as urgency, frequent urination, dysuria, and incontinence, it may be associated with prostatitis, prostatic hyperplasia, and other diseases, and it is recommended to go to urology for treatment.
If prostate calcification is accompanied by other prostate diseases, it is recommended to go to the hospital for corresponding diagnosis and treatment in time. For example, calcified prostatitis of the prostate should be treated symptomatically with relevant antibiotics.
