Should a prostatic cyst be operated on?
Whether prostate cysts require surgical treatment mainly depends on the size of the cyst. If the cyst is small and the patient does not experience discomfort, there is no need for special treatment. However, if the cyst is large, compressing the urethra, or even causing urinary retention, it is advisable to undergo surgery as soon as possible to remove the cyst, relieve the pressure on the urethra, and restore smooth urination. However, most prostate cysts do not cause any discomfort and generally do not require special treatment. If there are symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, or incomplete urination, local physiotherapy can be performed, such as warm water sitz baths, or taking oral tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained release tablets to improve urinary discomfort.
