What is prostate calcification?

Most men don't know much about prostate calcification. It is one of the most common prostate diseases in men, and is more common among middle-aged men. Prostate calcification is a scar left after a man has experienced prostate calcification in the past. However, prostate calcification is also the early manifestation of prostate stones, which requires everyone's high attention. Let's talk about the problem of prostate calcification.

1. Most patients do not have any symptoms in the early stage, and are usually discovered inadvertently during routine physical examinations. Some patients may have urogenital system symptoms, such as frequent urination or inability to hold urine, because the disease presses on the posterior urethra and bladder neck, which is also one of the common symptoms of prostate calcification. With the development of the disease, the symptom of inability to hold urine will become more and more serious, and the patient will discharge urine after going to the toilet.

2. The urethral obstruction is more obvious, and there is always a feeling of incomplete urine. Very few patients will have urinary incontinence, especially nocturnal incontinence. Some patients will have hematuria, because prostatic hyperplasia irritates the blood vessels on the surface of the mucosa, causing vascular rupture and bleeding, accompanied by prostate calcification, which is more serious. Some patients will have urinary retention after drinking, sexual intercourse or fatigue, which is caused by hematoma or edema caused by irritation of the prostate and bladder neck.

3. Prostate calcification can cause subacute urinary tract infection, hydronephrosis or renal insufficiency, which will be very serious in the middle and late stages. Most patients will experience anorexia, nausea, vomiting and relatively severe anemia, which seriously endangers the patient's personal safety. Therefore, men with prostate calcification symptoms must go to the hospital for relevant examinations as soon as possible, and then choose the appropriate treatment method after diagnosis.

The above details the professional knowledge of prostate calcification. Prostate calcification is a common clinical medical symptom and needs to be treated as soon as possible. Usually, it is necessary to ensure local cleaning, eat a light diet, avoid spicy or irritating foods, drink more water, drink less alcohol, and eat less meat. Generally, prostate calcification will not cause great harm to men, and it is not so easy to detect. Unless the condition worsens, it needs to be treated as soon as possible to avoid the more serious problems caused by prostate calcification.
