Enlarged Prostate Treatment Hospital in Himatnagar
An enlarged prostate (BPH) is a non-cancerous growth of the prostate gland that is very common in men over 50. It squeezes the urine passage, causing a weak stream, frequent urination – especially at night – and sometimes inability to pass urine. At Pluto Hospital, Himatnagar, MCh urologist Dr. Anil Jangid treats BPH with medicines and endoscopic prostate surgery when needed.
Understanding the Condition
What Is an Enlarged Prostate?
The prostate sits below the bladder and surrounds the urine tube. With age, it grows larger and presses on the tube, making it harder to empty the bladder. Over time, this can cause infections, stones, bladder damage or sudden inability to pass urine. BPH is not cancer, but similar symptoms can occur in prostate cancer, so a check-up is important.
Risk Factors
- Age – very common after 50
