Urology problems treated at Pristyn Care:
Kidney Stones
Kidney stones, also known as renal stones, renal calculi, nephrolithiasis, or urolithiasis, are hard deposits made of minerals and salts that form inside the urinary system. They usually form due to an unhealthy diet, obesity, some medical conditions, and certain supplements and medications.
While they are commonly known as kidney stones, they can also be formed inside other parts of the urinary system, such as the ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra.
Treatment: Medications, ESWL, RIRS, PCNL surgery, URSL
Enlarged Prostate Gland
Prostate enlargement, or BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), is the natural enlargement of the prostate gland due to age-related hormonal changes in men. It is very common; over 70% of men above the age of 50 have some degree of BPH.
An enlarged prostate gland compresses the urethra and blocks the flow of urine, leading to bladder, urinary tract, or kidney problems.
Treatment: Medication, TURP surgery, HoLEP surgery
