Men Should Consult a Urologist for 7 Reasons

Men Should Consult a Urologist for 7 Reasons

Men rarely visit urologists on their own. It normally happens after you’ve been evaluated for men’s health issues and received a recommendation from your primary care provider.

 

Here are seven of the most prevalent reasons why a man would find up at a urologist’s clinic, according to Dr. Suraj Lunavat, a Urologist in Pune.

  1. Prostate Cancer Screenings
  2. Urinary Issues
  3. Testicular Pain OR Changes
  4. Blood in Your Urine
  5. Erectile Dysfunction
  6. Kidney Stones
  7. Vasectomy

 

Prostate Cancer Screenings

The purpose of prostate cancer screening is to discover malignancies that are likely to spread if not treated and to catch them early before they spread.

Urinary Issues

A urinary tract infection, or UTI, is an infection that arises in the urinary tract and is one of the most frequent urinary diseases. Microbes such as fungus, bacteria, and viruses are the most common causes of this infection, which affects the kidneys, ureters, urethra, and bladder.

Males of any age might have testicular pain. The testicles (testes) are little egg-shaped reproductive organs located inside the scrotum, a narrow pouch of skin.

 Blood in Your Urine

Blood in the pee, also known as hematuria, can be frightening. It’s possible that it’s a sign of bladder or kidney cancer. It’s critical to see a urologist as soon as possible. They can pinpoint the source of the problem – whatever is causing the blood in the urine.

Erectile Dysfunction

Between the ages of 40 and 70, 30 to 50 percent of males suffer from ED. It should go without saying that this is a widespread issue. Because there are several causes and symptoms of ED, consulting a urologist should be your first step. A urologist will investigate numerous reasons for ED, including vascular health, hypertension, renal failure, obesity, and a variety of other disorders.

Kidney Stones

Kidney stones are a common occurrence that, if not treated, can recur. There are a variety of therapies available, and consulting with a urologist will put you on the path to discovering one.

Vasectomy

Vasectomy is a surgical treatment that is used to sterilize men or to provide long-term contraception. The male vasa deferentia is cut and knotted or sealed during the surgery to prevent sperm from entering the urethra and so fertilization of a female through sexual intercourse.

Although there are a variety of other symptoms that may require a visit to a urologist, these are the most prevalent. It’s not constantly on men’s thoughts, but as they get older, the necessity to stay on top of their urological health grows.

5 Habits For Prevention Of Kidney Stone

A kidney stone affects 1 out of every 10 people at some point in their lives. It does not means that they all need treatment.. Most kidney stones are asymptomatic unless they pass through your kidney and into your ureter, causing discomfort or pain. Kidney stones can be avoided if 5 basic practices are followed.

So, the 5 Habits are:

  1. Drink a lot of water

Drinking plenty of fluids is recommended when it comes to preventing kidney stones. Fluids dilute and increase the volume of the stone-forming substances in urine, making them less prone to crystallize.

  1. Increase citric acid intake

Citrus fruits, such as lemons and oranges, contain citric acid. Stone development and expansion are prevented by the juice from these fruits.

  1. Limit foods high in oxalates

Oxalate has the ability to bind calcium and other minerals, resulting in the formation of stone. Leafy green vegetables, such as spinach, contain oxalate.

  1. Decrease salt intake

Salt has a high amount of sodium, which causes stone formation by increasing calcium excretion through urine.

  1. Get enough Calcium

It’s a frequent misconception that lowering your calcium intake will lower your risk of developing calcium-containing stones. Calcium in the diet tends to bind with oxalate, preventing it from being absorbed. It isn’t necessary for the kidneys to pass it through the urine system.

Kidney Stones can be avoided by following these 5 simple habits. Please contact us if you have any questions about Kidney Stones. You can also contact us via our social media platforms, such as Facebook and YouTube.
