Wondering if anyone has any comments about this for drainage of fluid
and possible treatment for calcification of the prostate? If so what
sort of practioner would do this?
Thanks

hi david - nothing can be done for the
calcification inside the prostate. these are known as prostate stones
and are common in men as they age. in fact, 80% of men have prostate
stones by the time they are 60. they show up as white spots on the
ultra-sound of the prostate.
your enlarged prostate could be pushing into your bladder forming a ring
into the bottom. this causes the urine to pool inside the ring and is
held back. ever notice that after you are done, that if you bend over
or do some activity within a minute, you can pee some more and it is a
lot more than usual. this is that pool of urine spilling out of that
ring. have them do an ultra-sound for this. it's painless.
you are laid down on a table and an ultra sound is given to see how much
fluid you have. then you go to the bathroom and empty as much as you
possibly can. you then go back to the table and they do the ultra sound
again. this is how i found out that i had this condition. they can
tell you exactly how much cc of urine you are holding back each time.
of course, this condition causes the bladder to fill up quicker, which
could be one of the symptoms you are describing.
