A urologist is a specialist who deals with problems of the urinary system. It is recommended to visit a urologist once a year or when the first symptoms appear. It is generally accepted that a urologist is a purely “male” specialist, but women can also be his patients.
Indications for consultation
An appointment with a urologist should be made if the following symptoms appear:
frequent urge to urinate;
pain in the lumbar region and abdomen;
anomalies in the development of the genitals;
injuries of the organs of the reproductive system;
change in color or smell of urine;
the appearance of blood in the urine or seminal fluid;
swelling;
The urological office consists of two parts: the first part is the introduction to the patient, the discussion of symptoms and the preparation of a treatment plan; in the second, you will need to undress so that the doctor can examine you. At a preventive visit, an examination may not be required if you do not have any complaints.
How is the examination in men
After consultation, the specialist proceeds to the examination. To begin with, it is necessary to determine the correspondence of the patient's figure to his age, to study the hairline on the body, the appearance of the chest and nipples to assess the functions of the gonads.
