5 signs for you to visit urologist as soon as possible

A urologist is a specialist who diagnoses and treats diseases of the urinary tract.

NEWS.am MEDICINE has presented to you 5 signs that indicate you should visit your urologist as soon as possible:

Blood in urine

Blood in the urine is an extremely dangerous symptom that can indicate several diseases, including cancer. Bloody discharge in the urine can also appear due to infection, stones in the bladder or kidney, pyelonephritis, and other diseases.

Urinary disorders

Disturbances of urination, such as frequent urination, feeling of incomplete emptying of the bladder, unpleasant or painful sensations during urination, as well as an uncharacteristically thin or intermittent stream - all of these can indicate genitourinary infections, and in some cases, even on prostatitis, prostate adenoma and even prostate cancer.

Discharge from the urethra

Discharge from the urethra can be a symptom of an inflammatory process. Itching, burning, and cramps can also indicate an infection.

Pain in the perineum, around the anus, and in the lower back

If such symptoms appear after intense training, most likely, with their help, the body is trying to tell that the load is too great for it. And if these sensations appear for no apparent reason or appear regularly, it is recommended to see a urologist. Perhaps these symptoms are caused by abnormalities in the genitourinary system.

Erectile dysfunction

Decreased libido, erection problems, painful ejaculation can indicate serious problems such as prostatitis, adenoma, and prostate cancer. The sooner the disease is detected, the better the chances of a successful recovery.
