Prostate calcification is a frequent finding during ultrasound examinations. Most have no obvious symptoms or discomfort. Many people feel worried and anxious after finding calcified prostate: what exactly is the disease of calcified prostate? Do you need to treat it? The actual calcification of the prostate is an abnormal deposition of calcium salts in the prostate tissue, just like the calcification of other organs, such as the calcified foci of the lungs that can be found during chest radiography; the calcified foci of the walls of the large blood vessels of the heart, etc. This is a manifestation of the repair process of tissue lesions, which do not necessarily cause organ dysfunction. The calcification of the prostate gland is commonly found in the following cases: 1. Calcification of the prostate gland found in physical examination: no symptoms, in the line of routine health examination, ultrasound found calcified foci of the prostate gland, no increase in the volume of the prostate gland. It is often due to previous inflammation of the prostate and other lesions that have healed, and in the process of inflammation subsiding, the tissue repairs and calcifications appear. No treatment is needed, often carried for life. 2. chronic prostatitis: mostly seen in young and middle-aged men. The actual calcified foci are often accompanied by an increase in the size of the prostate gland when you visit the doctor for symptoms such as waiting for urine, frequent urination, incomplete urination, with scrotal dampness. The actual calcification is formed in the course of the chronic prostatitis disease, suggesting that the treatment of this chronic prostatitis is relatively difficult and requires a longer period of medication. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. This is a characteristic change of tuberculosis. The calcified foci will remain for a long time after healing. 4. benign prostatic hyperplasia: the so-called prostate hypertrophy, seen in older men. The presence of calcification at this time often suggests that the prostate enlargement is accompanied by chronic prostatitis, and the symptoms are often more severe. The actual calcified foci in the prostate tissue can be found during transurethral resection of the prostate, or multiple small stones in the prostate lobe. The calcified foci disappear after surgery. In conclusion, young and middle-aged men who find calcified foci in the prostate during an ultrasound examination do not need treatment if they are asymptomatic. If you have symptoms, you should go to a regular hospital urology department or male department to have your prostate fluid examined and treated in time.
