Dr Woraphong Literature Head of Urology Center Vimut Hospital He revealed that “Wimut Hospital urinary system center Fully equipped with a team of experienced doctors They work with a multidisciplinary team ready to provide care that helps patients return to their normal life as quickly and safely as possible. For enlarged prostate disease or BPH (nondeterministic prostate hyperplasia) is a condition in which the prostate gland that surrounds the urethra has grown in size to the point where it presses on the urethra and narrows it. This causes problems with abnormal urination, such as difficulty urinating, pushing, not urinating, or not being able to urinate all the way. I can not urinate, it is necessary to urinate often, you have to get up to urinate many times in the middle of the night. Including urinary incontinence if you have these symptoms. You should see a doctor quickly to find an appropriate treatment strategy. Because if you leave it alone It can lead to problems such as urinary tract infections. Blood in the urine Bladder stones or it can affect kidney function, etc.”
Dr. Danaiphan Akrasakul, a physician specializing in urological surgery. he said, “Because prostate enlargement is an age-related health problem. So it is a disease that we cannot prevent. But medical advances now provide us with safe treatment methods and faster recovery. So it is an important matter to see a doctor to check the prostate every year for men aged 50 years and older, because in addition to enlarged prostate disease, prostate cancer is another risk that should not be ignored. Because it is considered to be the 4th most common cancer found in men. In the early stages of prostate cancer, there may not be any obvious symptoms. It is often detected through a health check or test for prostate cancer markers in the blood (serum PSA) that is higher than normal. When cancer cells spread to colonize the urethra It can cause problems with urination, such as difficulty urinating or not urinating. Urinary incontinence There is a burning pain during urination. or blood mixed with urine and semen This is a symptom similar to an enlarged prostate, but an enlarged prostate is not actually a risk factor for cancer. Men with an enlarged prostate have a 20% chance of developing prostate cancer when urine cannot pass completely. Bacteria also accumulate and increase the risk of infection. In some cases, stones can form in the body. The key is to allow the inflammation of the bladder and kidneys to subside to the point of permanent damage. Therefore, if there are unusual urinary symptoms Men should not be patient or complacent. It is better to consult a doctor for a clear diagnosis. For the safety of our own lives.”
