Common Diseases
Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH)
BPH is an enlargement of the prostate gland which is a progressive condition that commonly occurs in elderly men. The condition causes pressure to be exerted on the neck of the bladder obstructing the flow of urine. Symptoms include a
frequent need of pass urine, especially during the night, discomfort, pain and dribbling. It causes
infections which may involve the upper urinary tract and kidneys since the bladder is not emptied efficiently. Treatment includes
Prostatectomy and usage of drugs.
Limiting your alcohol and coffee intake can improve the situation. It is better to consult your doctor at an early stage, not only because treatment is highly successful in bringing relief but also in order to rule out the possibility of malignancy.
