Urinary problems, regardless of their frequency, are always a cause for concern. This is because they may certify for some illness hidden so-far. Such situations are very uncomfortable for both men and women, so the best solution will be to go to a specialist doctor - an urologist.
What does a urologist do?
The urinary tract (which is connected to the sexual system) is highly susceptible to various infections and inflammations. An urologist is a doctor who deals with, among other things:
- inflammation of the male and female urinary tract,
- erectile dysfunction,
- bladder abnormalities - for example, incontinence,
- prostate hypertrophy,
- external diseases of the male genital organs, such as the testicular watermelon or the stulejka.
Such conditions are not only very uncomfortable, they are associated with many unpleasant symptoms. First of all, they can develop into chronic, but also life-threatening conditions, which will be really difficult to treat. A visit to a specialist is not terrible and usually lasts unexpectedly short. It allows for the assessment of the situation, as well as the implementation of the necessary treatment in a given case.
Visiting a urologist - when to go to see a specialist?
Even small changes in the functioning of the genitourinary system can be a sign that something bad is happening to it. If this condition is prolonged and prevents normal functioning, a visit to a specialist will be necessary! It's a good idea to go to the urologist, especially if you're..:
- there was a problem with the urinary incontinence,
- urine is abnormal, i.e. it has blood, pus or abnormal appearance,
- you're feeling pain in the urine,
- urinates more than seven times a day, or very rarely,
- there was an unpleasant pressure on the bladder,
- the genital organs have visibly changed - there has been pain, redness, itching or swelling.
Such symptoms may or may not be a harbinger of some disease. It is only possible to light inflammation of the genitourinary system, but such conditions should never be underestimated. If you are uncomfortable with passing urine or having sexual intercourse, a doctor's appointment will certainly be a good idea. The experience and knowledge of such a specialist will help everyone to deal with such unpleasant ailments.
It is also worth noting that every man over forty-five years of age should go to an urologist for a mandatory consultation.

Such an appointment is not expensive at all - you can also make an appointment through the National Health Fund. However, if a person has been suffering from any of the above mentioned symptoms for some time, under no circumstances should the examination be delayed.
