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 Cancer

Prostate cancer often has no symptoms in its early stages, so it is frequently discovered only after it has progressed significantly. Early detection is possible through the PSA (prostate-specific antigen) blood test, and when found early, surgery or radiation therapy can offer a favorable outlook. Regular screening is important for men age 45 and older, especially those with a family history.2026-06-26

Urinary incontinence does not occur only in women; it also occurs in men, and the number of men with urinary incontinence is increasing with population aging and a rise in prostate disease. It often occurs after prostate surgery or because of benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate), diabetes, and similar conditions. It can be managed with proper care, including Kegel exercises, drug treatment, and, when necessary, surgical treatment, so please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26
