Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a very common condition in men in which the prostate enlarges with age, narrowing the urethra and causing urinary symptoms. The prevalence rises with age, affecting about 50% of men in their 50s and 60% of men in their 60s. Without treatment, it can lead to complications such as acute urinary retention or kidney failure, so if you have symptoms, please consult a urologist.2026-06-26

Neurogenic Bladder
#neurogenic bladder, #overactive bladder, #urinary incontinence, #residual urine, #bladder function, #stroke, #Parkinson's disease, #diabetes mellitus, #urodynamic study, #clean intermittent catheterization
Neurogenic bladder is a condition in which a problem in the nervous system, such as the brain, spinal cord, or peripheral nerves, prevents the bladder from storing or emptying urine properly. Symptoms are often mild at first and easy to overlook, but without treatment, serious complications such as urinary tract infection and kidney failure can occur. If you have an underlying condition such as stroke or diabetes mellitus, please have your bladder function checked regularly.2026-06-26

Prostate Disorders

Prostate disorders include benign prostatic hyperplasia, which causes difficulty urinating, and prostate cancer, which is increasing rapidly among men. Both conditions tend to have few or mild symptoms in their early stages, making them easy to overlook, but if left unaddressed, they can lead to serious complications such as urinary retention or kidney failure. If you have any urinary symptoms, please be sure to consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26

Sleep apnea is a condition in which breathing repeatedly stops or becomes markedly reduced for 10 seconds or longer during sleep. If left untreated, it can worsen various systemic conditions such as high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes mellitus. It is not a simple sleeping habit but a condition that may require treatment. If you snore heavily or feel severe daytime sleepiness, please consult an ENT specialist.2026-06-26

Urinary tract infection is known to be more common in women, but it also occurs frequently in men, and it is increasing, especially in older men along with diabetes and benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate). If it is not treated appropriately at an early stage, it can become chronic or lead to sepsis, so prompt diagnosis and treatment are important.2026-06-26
