You are probably correct. For me its just a question (which at this point is pretty meaningless to my current condition). I did make periodic prostate massage a regular occurrence because it gave me temporary relief. However, massaging to the point of causing blood just does not make sense to me. I know that punctures are different than severe massage but they are both traumatic when blood in the semen is the result.<br />

Mike, I cannot imagine that massage caused the kind of granulomatous stippling that the pathologist reported. While the differential for granulomas is long, the most likely explanation for the anatomical finding is the punctate trauma caused by needles going into the prostate.
