Prostate is gland that is present just distal to urinary bladder and is attached to upper urethra.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

After the age of 40 in males, prostate starts increasing in size. If it becomes too large or distorts in shape, it may compress on urethra.
About half of men in their 50s and about 90% of men in their 80s are likely to have enlarged prostates.

Symptoms
Early symptoms of BPH are:
Decreased stream of urine which may progress to complete blockage of urine
Incomplete emptying of bladder
Difficulty while starting to pass urine
Increased frequency of urination during day and or during night
Urine infection
Blood in the urine
Bladder stones
Kidney damage may happen in later stages
Diagnoses
Examination by doctor
Ultrasound
Blood tests like PSA may be done to rule out cancer of prostate

Treatment
Lifestyle changes: avoid alcohol and caffeine, decrease liquid intake especially before sleep, pelvic exercises.
The next level of treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia is usually medications.
If lifestyle changes and medications do not help with BPH, surgery is the next option. Surgical options range from minimally invasive therapies to full surgery.

Star Hospital is the Best Kidney Stone Removal Hospital in Amritsar. Kidney stone, also called renal calculus, plural renal calculi, concretion of minerals and organic matter that forms in the kidneys. Such stones may become so large as to impair normal renal function.

Symptoms and Signs:

No symptoms if stones are small and lying inside kidney without causing any obstruction to the flow of urine
Pain – Usually in flank
Blood in urine
Nausea and vomiting

Causes and Risk Factors
Anyone can get a kidney stone, but some people are more likely than others to have them. Men get kidney stones more often than women do. Kidney stones are also more common in non-Hispanic white people than in people of other ethnicities. You may also be more likely to have kidney stones if:
Inadequate water intake
Family history
Previous history of kidney stone
Obesity
Polycystic Kidney Disease

Types:

Kidney stones can be very small to very large.

Treatment

Small stones:

Plenty of fluids may push the stone out of urinary system.

Large stones or if small but not getting flushed out and causing obstruction – Some type of surgical treatment may be necessary.

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) – uses ultrasonic shock waves to break stones into small fragments to let them pass through urinary system. One sitting may take 45 to 60 minutes and may need repeated sittings.

PerCutaneous NephroLithotomy (PCNL) – a tube is inserted directly into kidney to remove the stone. Recovery is very fast and pain very less.

Prevention

The best way is to drink enough liquids every day
