Conditions

Kidney Stones

Kidney stones, also known as renal calculi, are hard mineral and salt deposits that form in the kidneys when urine becomes concentrated. They can vary in size from tiny grains to larger stones that block the urinary tract. Kidney stones are a common urological problem and can be excruciatingly painful. They may remain in the kidney or travel down the ureter (the tube connecting kidney and bladder), causing severe discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and even blood in the urine.

At Primax Hospital, we offer advanced diagnostic imaging, rapid pain relief, and both medical and surgical management for kidney stones. Our team uses non-invasive and minimally invasive approaches to ensure optimal outcomes and reduce the chance of recurrence.

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are one of the most common infections affecting individuals across all age groups. They occur when bacteria, most often from the digestive tract, enter the urethra and multiply in the urinary system. While more common in women due to anatomical differences, UTIs also affect men, children, and the elderly. UTIs can affect any part of the urinary tract, including the bladder (cystitis), urethra (urethritis), and kidneys (pyelonephritis). Although many UTIs are mild and easily treated, recurrent or complicated infections can lead to kidney damage and systemic infection.

At Primax Hospital, our Urology Department provides comprehensive evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of UTIs. We address not only the acute infection but also the underlying causes such as bladder dysfunction, poor hygiene, immune conditions, or anatomical abnormalities. Our goal is to offer safe, evidence-based care that not only treats the current infection but also prevents future recurrence.

Symptoms of UTIs

UTI symptoms vary depending on which part of the urinary tract is affected. Common symptoms include:

– Burning sensation during urination

– Frequent urge to urinate, often with little output

– Cloudy or strong-smelling urine

– Lower abdominal discomfort or pelvic pain

– Blood in the urine (hematuria)

– Fever, chills, or nausea (if infection spreads to kidneys)

– Fatigue and weakness (in systemic or chronic cases)

Types of Urinary Tract Infections

– **Cystitis**: Infection of the bladder.

– **Urethritis**: Infection of the urethra.

– **Pyelonephritis**: Infection that travels to the kidneys; can be life-threatening.

– **Recurrent UTI**: Defined as two or more infections in six months or three or more in a year.

Causes and Risk Factors

The most common cause of UTIs is the bacterium *Escherichia coli* (E. coli), but other bacteria, viruses, and fungi can also be responsible. Risk factors include:

– Poor personal hygiene

– Female anatomy (shorter urethra)

– Use of catheters

– Sexual activity

– Menopause or hormonal changes

– Diabetes or immunocompromised state

– Obstruction from stones or enlarged prostate

– Constipation or incomplete bladder emptying

Diagnosis at Primax Hospital

We perform a step-by-step diagnostic evaluation to confirm the infection and identify its severity and root cause:

– Urinalysis: Detects white blood cells, nitrites, and bacteria.

– Urine Culture and Sensitivity: Identifies the specific organism and effective antibiotics.

– Ultrasound KUB: Evaluates kidneys, ureters, and bladder for stones or structural issues.

– Cystoscopy: A thin tube inserted into the bladder to view abnormalities (for recurrent cases).

– Blood Tests: For signs of infection spread (especially in pyelonephritis).

Treatment Options at Primax

– Oral antibiotics for mild to moderate infections.

– Intravenous antibiotics for severe or kidney-involving infections.

– Hydration therapy to flush out bacteria.

– Pain relief medications and antispasmodics.

– Prophylactic low-dose antibiotics for recurrent infections under supervision.

– Addressing underlying causes (e.g., treating stones, relieving bladder outlet obstruction).

Complications of Untreated UTIs

– Kidney infection (pyelonephritis) and scarring

– Sepsis, particularly in elderly or diabetic patients

– Recurrent or chronic infections

– Bladder damage or urinary incontinence

– Pregnancy complications in expectant mothers

Prevention and Lifestyle Advice

– Drink plenty of water daily

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that affects a significant number of men, especially as they grow older. The prostate gland, located just below the bladder, surrounds the urethraβ€”the tube that carries urine out of the body. As the prostate enlarges, it may squeeze or partially block the urethra, causing bothersome urinary symptoms. Although BPH is not cancer and does not lead to prostate cancer, it can seriously impact quality of life if left untreated.

At Primax Hospital, we understand how BPH can disrupt daily routinesβ€”from disturbed sleep due to nighttime urination to reduced urinary flow and discomfort. We provide comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, personalized treatment planning, and advanced minimally invasive options to ensure men receive relief from symptoms while preserving overall urological health.

Symptoms of BPH

– Difficulty starting urination

– Weak or interrupted urinary stream

– Frequent urination, especially at night (nocturia)

– Urgency to urinate

– Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying

– Dribbling at the end of urination

Causes and Risk Factors

– Aging (common after age 50)

– Hormonal changes involving dihydrotestosterone (DHT)

– Family history of BPH

– Sedentary lifestyle

– Obesity and metabolic syndrome

– Diabetes and cardiovascular conditions

Diagnosis at Primax Hospital

– Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) to assess prostate size

– Serum PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) test

– Urine analysis to rule out infection

Male Infertility & Erectile Dysfunction

Male infertility and erectile dysfunction (ED) are two common but often under-discussed urological issues that affect men of various age groups. Infertility in men is typically defined as the inability to achieve pregnancy in a fertile female partner after one year of unprotected intercourse, while erectile dysfunction refers to the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance. Both conditions can stem from physical, hormonal, psychological, or lifestyle-related factors.

Overview

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are one of the most common infections affecting individuals across all age groups. They occur when bacteria, most often from the digestive tract, enter the urethra and multiply in the urinary system. While more common in women due to anatomical differences, UTIs also affect men, children, and the elderly. UTIs can affect any part of the urinary tract, including the bladder (cystitis), urethra (urethritis), and kidneys (pyelonephritis). Although many UTIs are mild and easily treated, recurrent or complicated infections can lead to kidney damage and systemic infection.

At Primax Hospital, our Urology Department provides comprehensive evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of UTIs. We address not only the acute infection but also the underlying causes such as bladder dysfunction, poor hygiene, immune conditions, or anatomical abnormalities. Our goal is to offer safe, evidence-based care that not only treats the current infection but also prevents future recurrence.

Symptoms of UTIs

UTI symptoms vary depending on which part of the urinary tract is affected. Common symptoms include:

– Burning sensation during urination

– Frequent urge to urinate, often with little output

– Cloudy or strong-smelling urine

– Lower abdominal discomfort or pelvic pain

– Blood in the urine (hematuria)

– Fever, chills, or nausea (if infection spreads to kidneys)

– Fatigue and weakness (in systemic or chronic cases)

Types of Urinary Tract Infections

– **Cystitis**: Infection of the bladder.

– **Urethritis**: Infection of the urethra.

– **Pyelonephritis**: Infection that travels to the kidneys; can be life-threatening.

– **Recurrent UTI**: Defined as two or more infections in six months or three or more in a year.

Causes and Risk Factors

The most common cause of UTIs is the bacterium *Escherichia coli* (E. coli), but other bacteria, viruses, and fungi can also be responsible. Risk factors include:

– Poor personal hygiene

– Female anatomy (shorter urethra)

– Use of catheters

– Sexual activity

– Menopause or hormonal changes

– Diabetes or immunocompromised state

– Obstruction from stones or enlarged prostate

– Constipation or incomplete bladder emptying

Diagnosis at Primax Hospital

We perform a step-by-step diagnostic evaluation to confirm the infection and identify its severity and root cause:

– Urinalysis: Detects white blood cells, nitrites, and bacteria.

– Urine Culture and Sensitivity: Identifies the specific organism and effective antibiotics.

– Ultrasound KUB: Evaluates kidneys, ureters, and bladder for stones or structural issues.

– Cystoscopy: A thin tube inserted into the bladder to view abnormalities (for recurrent cases).

– Blood Tests: For signs of infection spread (especially in pyelonephritis).

Treatment Options at Primax

– Oral antibiotics for mild to moderate infections.

– Intravenous antibiotics for severe or kidney-involving infections.

– Hydration therapy to flush out bacteria.

– Pain relief medications and antispasmodics.

– Prophylactic low-dose antibiotics for recurrent infections under supervision.

– Addressing underlying causes (e.g., treating stones, relieving bladder outlet obstruction).

Complications of Untreated UTIs

– Kidney infection (pyelonephritis) and scarring

– Sepsis, particularly in elderly or diabetic patients

– Recurrent or chronic infections

– Bladder damage or urinary incontinence

– Pregnancy complications in expectant mothers

Overview

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that affects a significant number of men, especially as they grow older. The prostate gland, located just below the bladder, surrounds the urethraβ€”the tube that carries urine out of the body. As the prostate enlarges, it may squeeze or partially block the urethra, causing bothersome urinary symptoms. Although BPH is not cancer and does not lead to prostate cancer, it can seriously impact quality of life if left untreated.

At Primax Hospital, we understand how BPH can disrupt daily routinesβ€”from disturbed sleep due to nighttime urination to reduced urinary flow and discomfort. We provide comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, personalized treatment planning, and advanced minimally invasive options to ensure men receive relief from symptoms while preserving overall urological health.

Symptoms of BPH

– Difficulty starting urination

– Weak or interrupted urinary stream

– Frequent urination, especially at night (nocturia)

– Urgency to urinate

– Feeling of incomplete bladder emptying

– Dribbling at the end of urination

Causes and Risk Factors

Overview

Hematuria is the medical term for the presence of blood in the urine. It can be visible to the naked eye (gross hematuria) or detected only under a microscope (microscopic hematuria). While not always a sign of a serious medical condition, hematuria should never be ignored, especially if it persists. It may signal underlying issues in the kidneys, bladder, prostate, or other parts of the urinary tract.

Overview

The bladder is a vital organ responsible for storing and releasing urine. When it becomes irritated, inflamed, or infected, it can lead to discomfort, urinary symptoms, and disruptions in daily life. One of the most common bladder problems is cystitis, an inflammation of the bladder, often caused by a urinary tract infection (UTI). While cystitis typically affects women, it can also occur in men and children.

At Primax Hospital, our Urology and Internal Medicine teams work together to diagnose and treat a wide range of bladder conditions, using evidence-based care and modern diagnostics to ensure accurate treatment and long-term relief.

  • Lower abdominal or pelvic discomfort

  • Cloudy, strong-smelling, or bloody urine

  • Difficulty fully emptying the bladder

  • Mild fever (in some cases)

If you experience flank pain, high fever, or vomiting, it may indicate a kidney infection and requires urgent medical attention.


Causes and Risk Factors
  • Bacterial infections (most commonly E. coli)

  • Poor hygiene practices or improper wiping techniques

  • Sexual activity (especially in women)

  • Prolonged catheter use

Overview

Pediatric urology focuses on diagnosing and treating urinary and genital conditions in infants, children, and adolescents. Unlike adults, children may present with congenital (from birth) abnormalities, developmental concerns, or functional urinary issues that require specialized care tailored to their age and growth.

At Primax Hospital, our dedicated Pediatric Urology team offers compassionate, expert care using the latest diagnostic tools and minimally invasive techniques. We aim to ensure your child’s comfort, healthy development, and long-term wellness.


Common Pediatric Urology Conditions
1. Undescended Testes (Cryptorchidism)
  • One or both testicles fail to descend into the scrotum

  • Common in newborn boys

  • Treated surgically (orchiopexy) if not resolved by 6–12 months

2. Hypospadias
  • The opening of the urethra is located on the underside of the penis instead of the tip

  • Requires surgical correction to ensure normal urination and future fertility

3. Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR)
  • Backward flow of urine from the bladder to the kidneys

  • Increases the risk of kidney infections and damage

  • Managed with medications, monitoring, or surgery in severe cases

4. Posterior Urethral Valves (PUV)
  • A blockage in the urethra that affects boys

  • Can lead to difficulty urinating and kidney damage if untreated

  • Requires early diagnosis and surgical intervention

5. Bedwetting (Nocturnal Enuresis)
  • Involuntary urination during sleep beyond the age of 5

  • May be due to developmental delays, deep sleep patterns, or bladder dysfunction

  • Treated through behavior therapy, alarms, and medications

6. Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) in Children
  • May present with fever, irritability, or poor feeding

  • Requires prompt antibiotic treatment and investigation for underlying causes

7. Phimosis and Paraphimosis
  • Phimosis: Tight foreskin that cannot be retracted

  • Paraphimosis: Retracted foreskin that cannot return to its normal position (a medical emergency)

  • Treatment may involve creams, gentle stretching, or circumcision

8. Hydrocele and Hernia
  • Hydrocele: Fluid-filled sac around the testicle

  • Inguinal Hernia: Intestines protrude through a weak spot in the groin
