  Sleep hygiene When we were young, our parents were very conscious about our sleep. They never let us stay up at night to do anything, including studying, they used to say – “There is no alternative to healthy sleep - to lead a healthy life . If we do not sleep properly, our head will not be well, which means the brain will not function properly. If the brain does not function properly, it means that the day is wasted”.  God has also designated night for rest and day for work.  But unfortunately, in the present era of extreme modernity, people have turned day into night – and night into day, we see every where!!   Desire is - I went to sleep, again - spent a few days without sleeping. Or having to take sleeping pills because you can't sleep, going to bed late, so getting up late the next day - none of this is healthy. It is not right to become dependent on sleeping pills because you are not sleeping. Said the expert - There is no substitute for adequate sleep t...

Problems of elderly men

Problems of elderly men


One day, the caretaker of my house suddenly had difficulty urinating. His wife came and told me. I took him to the doctor. The doctor said – it is a prostate problem. Then the patient told me that he had been having various problems with urination for a long time, but he was a little ashamed and neglected it, thinking it was a minor problem. In the end, the problem became bigger.

We know that with age, our body undergoes various changes, but we do not give it importance. Some of these can be harmful and some may not be harmful. One of them is the prostate of men. We see many people suffering from this problem in front of our eyes. We have to be aware to lead a healthy life.

Experts say that as men age, the prostate gland starts to enlarge. A part of men's semen is secreted from this gland. However, in older men, various problems with urination begin due to the enlargement of the prostate gland, which usually occurs after the age of 40.

By the age of 60, about half of men's prostate glands enlarge. This is hormonal, and sometimes due to tumors. There are two types of prostate gland enlargement: 1. Benign or harmless, 2. Cancer.

# What problems can occur if the prostate gland enlarges - what does the doctor say?

1. Frequent urination

2. Frequent urination at night

3. Inability to hold back when urinating

4. Delay in starting to urinate

5. Narrowing and slowing down of urine

6. Drop-by-drop urination

7. Feeling that urine remains even after urinating

8. Urinary retention 

# How to identify it --

First, the patient is physically examined. Then some more tests are needed. Such as:

1. Uroflowmetry test

2. Ultra sonogram

3. X-ray - kidney, ureter and bladder region

4. Urodynamic (occasionally)

5. Amount of PS in the blood. 

What will happen if you do not treat it - the doctor said - If you cannot urinate properly, its pressure goes backwards and falls on the urethra and then on the kidneys. This causes the kidneys to enlarge and if you delay, this important organ becomes partially and completely damaged at first. Apart from this, repeated infections, stones, bleeding and many other problems can occur due to urine retention.

Regarding treatment, the doctor said - Treatment depends on the symptoms. In the initial (score 0-7) stage, only monitoring is required. In the intermediate score (8-9) stage, some drugs such as Tamsulosin, Alfazosin can be used. In the final (score 20-35) stage, surgery is required.

Currently, 99 percent of surgeries are performed with the help of instruments. There is no need to cut the stomach.

# What to remember -

Urinary complications in older men are a major symptom of prostate problems.

These problems in urination can also be caused by other reasons, which will be evaluated by a specialist doctor.

The prostate can grow, it does not need treatment - this idea is wrong. Because, if delayed, kidney failure can occur.

It is not always necessary to have surgery. If you start treatment at the beginning, it is possible to be much better.

There is no point in thinking that you are old, that you do not need treatment for these minor things, that somehow the rest of the day will pass - these thoughts make no sense. Considering any problem as a minor matter and continuing it somehow - does not mean living a healthy life.

Pandemic Corona, Influenza and Our Fears 21st Century's Pandemic - “Covid-19 Pandemic” When I was a child, I heard stories about the horrors of epidemics of some diseases including plague and smallpox etc. In this era, we experienced the ”Covid-19 pandemic”. Many days have passed and we are still surviving after largely defeating Covid-19. But we have not yet overcome the fear. Whenever I see a patient with a cold, the thought of staying away still comes to mind. Any disease is painful, but even then if that disease is contagious - then there is no point, we are completely terrified and lose our sense of direction. Everyone around us becomes more restless than the patient. I am telling the story of my experience during Corona ----- I had just recovered from influenza. It made me suffer a lot. But the fear of Corona surpassed all physical suffering. I myself got scared and sprayed sanitizer all over the house. Seeing that, my housekeeper fled on the pretext of illness. I also did no...
