Urology

What is Urology?

Urology is a medical specialty concerned with conditions and diseases of the genital and urinary tract in men, women and children.

Urologists also diagnose and treat disorders of the male reproductive system.

Urination Frequency

Urination frequency varies widely, but most healthy people use the bathroom four to eight times a day.

More frequent urination or waking up at night to go to the bathroom may signal a health problem or simply that you’re drinking too much water before or at bedtime.

Visiting a Urologist

Some of the common disorders include kidney stones, diseases of the kidney, prostate enlargement, prostate diseases, impotence or erectile dysfunction, incontinence or loss of bladder control, etc.

If you have any of the problems above then you should consult a doctor specialised in above problems – UROLOGIST immediately.

Preventing problems

The best way to avoid urological problems is to maintain good overall health habits, including exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding tobacco, excessive alcohol and caffeine.

 

 

Kidney Diseases

Kidney Stones

A kidney stone forms when compounds in the urine bind together and crystalize into a hard mass.

Most people do not realize they have a stone until it moves from the kidney into the ureter and blocks the flow of urine from that kidney. This causes severe pain and often results in an emergency room visit.

 

Symptoms

Severe back or side pain that comes and goes, Urine that looks cloudy or includes blood

Vomiting, Fever and chills, A burning sensation while urinating.

 

Cause

A change in the normal balance of salts, minerals and other components in urine can lead to urolithiasis, a process that causes these particles cluster within the kidneys.

There are different types of kidney stones, including calcium oxalate, uric acid, ammonic magnesium and cystine.

Prevention

Drink lots of water with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Lemon juice contains citric acid, which not only inhibits stone formation but also breaks up small stones as they begin to form. Generally, the more citric acid in your urine, the more protected you are against forming new kidney stones.

The most common cause of stones is insufficient daily water intake. You should drink enough water to keep your urine clear—about eight to 10 glasses a day.
