Kidney Stones

Kidney stones are hard deposits of minerals and salts that form inside the kidneys. They can vary in size, from tiny grains to larger stones that may block the urinary tract. Stones form when certain substances in the urine, such as calcium, oxalate, or uric acid, become concentrated and crystallise. Risk factors include dehydration, high-salt diets, obesity, certain medical conditions, and family history.

Kidney Stones

What are the symptoms of kidney stones?

The symptoms depend on the size and location of the stone. Many stones cause no symptoms and are called silent stones. When symptoms appear, common signs include sudden severe pain in the back or side moving towards the groin, blood in urine, nausea or vomiting, frequent urination, burning sensation, or urinary infections.
Who is more likely to develop kidney stones?

People with a family history of stones, dehydration, certain diets, obesity, or metabolic disorders have a higher tendency to develop kidney stones.
What causes kidney stones?

Stones form when substances like calcium, oxalate, or uric acid in urine become concentrated and crystallise. Lifestyle, diet, and genetics play an important role.
Can drinking water help in flushing out the stones?

Yes. Staying well-hydrated can help prevent stones from forming and can aid in passing small stones naturally.
I have a stone but no symptoms. Should I undergo treatment?

Small, silent stones may just be monitored. Larger stones or those causing obstruction typically require treatment. Your doctor will guide the best approach.
How can I prevent ureteral stones?

Drink plenty of water, maintain a balanced diet, reduce salt and animal protein intake, and follow your doctor’s lifestyle and dietary recommendations.
My stone has not passed. Do I need surgery?

If the stone is large or causing obstruction or infection, surgery may be necessary. Your urologist will decide the best treatment.

Prostate Conditions

The prostate is a small gland in men that produces seminal fluid. Prostate problems are common as men age and include benign enlargement (BPH) and cancer. Enlargement of the prostate can block the flow of urine and cause urinary symptoms. Risk factors include age, family history, and lifestyle.

Prostate Conditions

What is benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)?

BPH is an enlargement of the prostate gland. It is not cancer and is common with aging. The enlarged prostate can press on the urethra, causing slow urine flow or difficulty in emptying the bladder.
What are the symptoms of BPH?

Symptoms include weak urine flow, difficulty starting urination, frequent urination especially at night, urgency, and feeling that the bladder is not fully emptied.
How will my doctor know if I have BPH?

Diagnosis usually involves a physical examination, urine tests, blood tests including PSA, and sometimes imaging studies.
How will my doctor treat BPH?

Treatment depends on severity. Mild cases may only need lifestyle changes or medications. More severe cases may require minimally invasive procedures or surgery.
Are there any drugs I can take?

Yes, there are medications to relax the prostate or reduce its size. Your doctor will recommend the appropriate medicine based on your condition.

Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer occurs when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in the prostate gland. It is most common in men over 50, and risk increases with age, family history, and certain ethnic backgrounds. Early detection is crucial for effective treatment.

Prostate Cancer

What are my chances of getting prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men. Risk increases with age, family history, and certain ethnic backgrounds. Early detection greatly improves outcomes.
What are the symptoms of prostate cancer?

Early prostate cancer often has no symptoms. Later signs can include difficulty urinating, blood in urine or semen, pain in the lower back or pelvis, and recurrent urinary infections.
How is prostate cancer diagnosed?

Diagnosis involves a combination of physical examination, PSA tests, imaging, and sometimes a biopsy to confirm the presence of cancer.
What type of doctor should I visit for prostate cancer screening?

A urologist or oncologist experienced in prostate care should be consulted for screening and evaluation.
How is prostate cancer typically treated?

Treatment depends on the stage and patient’s health. Options include active surveillance, surgery, radiotherapy, hormone therapy, and advanced targeted treatments for later stages.
What happens if the cancer comes back after initial therapy?

If prostate cancer recurs, further treatment may include surgery, radiotherapy, hormone therapy, or other interventions depending on your condition.
What new treatments are available for advanced prostate cancer?

Newer therapies include targeted hormone treatments, immunotherapy, and advanced precision radiotherapy. Your doctor will explain which options are suitable.

Kidney Transplant

Kidney transplantation is a treatment for end-stage kidney disease or chronic kidney failure. It involves replacing a diseased kidney with a healthy one from a living or deceased donor. Causes for needing a transplant include chronic kidney disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, or congenital kidney problems.

Kidney Transplant

Who is eligible for a kidney transplant?

Patients with advanced chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal failure may be eligible. Overall health, age, and absence of serious infections or uncontrolled conditions are also considered.
What is the difference between living donor and deceased donor transplant?

A living donor transplant uses a kidney from a healthy living person, often a family member. A deceased donor transplant uses a kidney from a person who has passed away. Both are safe and effective with proper care.
What is the recovery like after a kidney transplant?

Recovery involves a hospital stay, medications to prevent rejection, regular follow-ups, and lifestyle adjustments. Most patients return to normal activity within weeks to months.
How long does a transplanted kidney last?

With proper care and follow-up, a transplanted kidney can function for 10 to 20 years or more.
Can patients with other medical conditions undergo a transplant?

Yes, patients with well-controlled diabetes, blood pressure, or heart conditions can undergo transplantation after careful evaluation.
How can I prevent complications after a transplant?

Following medication schedules, attending follow-ups, avoiding infections, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle are key to long-term success.
