Health is wealth. So,
taking your health seriously is the most important thing that you can do to
protect and prolong a happy life. Today I am going to discuss about urologic
health. We all know that the urinary tract
is the drainage system of our body that removes urine and of course urine is
made up of wastes and water. The urinary tract consists of kidneys, bladder, and ureters and it is very
important to ensure that the urinary tract works properly as it can cause severe
health problems. It is important to understand that any symptom could be a
serious symptom when it comes to urological health, and most of them should be
addressed right away. A urologist is the doctor who specializes in the
treatment of disorders of the urinary system.
Following are the most
common urological diseases:
- Urinary tract infection
- Kidney stones
- Prostate cancer
- Hematuria
- Urine Incontinence
- Bladder cancer
- Bladder prolapse
- Erectile dysfunction
- Prostatitis
Only the best urology doctors can identify the symptoms of these diseases in the early stage itself. But always keep in mind that “Prevention is better than Cure”. So
it’s always better to be aware of your health and follow healthy habits always. So prevention of disease is far better than finding the best urologist for treatment.
So here I am going to say 10 general tips for
promoting good urological health:
1.
Stay hydrated
2.
Drink cranberry juice to help prevent urinary tract infections.
3.
Limit the amount of salt and caffeine you consume.
4.
Stay within a healthy weight range.
5.
Choose a smoke-free lifestyle.
6.
Strengthen the muscles of the pelvic area with Kegel exercises.
7.
Encourage children to urinate immediately before bed.
8.
Limit fluid intake in the nighttime hours.
9.
Purchase athletic “cups” for young boys to help prevent injury.
10. Instruct young girls that they should use a
front-to-back motion to wipe the genital area after going to the washroom.
