What department should I go to for a prostate cyst?
The appearance of prostate cysts is primarily due to the gradual formation after the blockage of the gland's small tubes. If diagnosed with a prostate cyst, it is necessary to visit the urology department of a hospital promptly. Most patients with prostate cysts do not experience discomfort, and these cysts are generally discovered during ultrasound examinations in physical check-ups. For such small cysts without any discomfort, special treatment is usually not necessary. If symptoms like frequent urination, urgent urination, or incomplete bladder emptying occur, improvements can be made via local hot compresses or warm sitz baths. If the cyst is large and compresses the urethra, causing urinary retention, it is advisable to consider surgery as soon as possible to remove the cyst and restore the flow of urination.
