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

Blood Cancer
#blood cancer, #leukemia, #multiple myeloma, #platelets, #bone marrow, #anemia, #chemotherapy, #hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Blood cancer refers to cancer that arises in the bone marrow, the organ responsible for producing blood cells. The bone marrow makes three types of blood cells: white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. When the bone marrow malfunctions, abnormalities in the number, shape, or function of these cells can cause a variety of symptoms. Frequent nosebleeds or easy bruising can occur, but these symptoms do not necessarily mean a person has blood cancer. If abnormal results appear on a blood test, please consult a hematology-oncology specialist.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
