Can a prostate cyst heal by itself?
For prostate cysts, they generally cannot heal on their own. Although the cysts are benign, active treatment is still necessary. It's recommended to visit the urology department to complete relevant examinations, such as a biopsy to clarify the diagnosis. If there are no symptoms, conservative treatment may be sufficient. However, if there are severe symptoms like frequent urination, painful urination, or the presence of blood in urine, active surgical intervention is required to prevent other discomforts. Additionally, rest, diet, keeping the area clean and dry, changing dressings regularly, and taking antibiotics if necessary to control infections are important.
Causes of intestinal obstruction
The causes of intestinal obstruction include factors external to the intestine and those originating from the intestine itself. External factors are mainly adhesions and bands of adhesions that cause intussusception or volvulus, thereby leading to intestinal obstruction. Congenital adhesive bands are common in children. Adhesions resulting from abdominal surgery or intra-abdominal inflammatory lesions are the most common causes of adult intestinal obstruction, although a minority of patients may have no history of abdominal surgery or inflammation. Additionally, incarcerated external or internal hernias may also cause intestinal obstruction. Furthermore, tumors external to the intestine or abdominal compression can also lead to obstruction.
