When you book Dr. Chirag Patel urologist in Surat, the consultation begins with a conversation about your symptoms, how long you have had them, your medical history, and the medicines you take. This is usually followed by a physical examination. Depending on what is found, urine tests, blood tests, an ultrasound or other scans may be suggested. Many people feel shy talking about urinary or sexual health, but these are common medical concerns, and the aim is simply to find the cause and explain your options clearly.
Burning while passing urine, needing to go very often, a weak stream, difficulty starting, getting up several times at night, or a feeling that the bladder has not emptied fully are all worth getting checked. Blood in the urine should never be ignored, even if it happens only once. Seek medical help promptly if you cannot pass urine at all, or if you have severe pain in the side or lower abdomen with fever or vomiting.
The prostate gland often grows larger with age, which can narrow the urine passage and cause a slow stream or frequent trips to the toilet. Many men are managed well with medicines and regular follow-up. When medicines are not enough, or complications develop, a procedure such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) may be considered. It is done through the urinary passage without a large cut. Under the care of Dr. Chirag Patel uro surgeon, you will be told whether it is right for you, along with the benefits, risks, and recovery time.
Cystoscopy lets the doctor look inside the bladder and urinary passage using a thin, flexible or rigid instrument with a camera. It may be advised to find the cause of blood in the urine, repeated infections, or other urinary symptoms. Your Dr. Chirag Patel urologist will tell you how to prepare, including any medicines to adjust, such as blood thinners. Mild burning or a little blood in the urine can occur afterwards and usually settles. Drinking plenty of fluids, unless advised otherwise, helps.
Andrology deals with male reproductive and sexual health. Concerns such as erectile difficulties, low desire, premature ejaculation, or problems with fertility are more common than most people think, and many can be treated once the cause is found. A private, respectful discussion with Dr. Chirag Patel is the first step. Do not rely on unprescribed supplements or advice from unreliable sources, since they can delay proper treatment.
After surgery, you rest in a recovery area where staff watch your breathing, comfort, and urine output. A catheter may be needed for a short time, depending on the procedure. Before you go home, you will be told about medicines, fluids, diet, activity, and when you can return to work. Take your medicines exactly as prescribed and attend your follow-up visits. If you have been treated by Dr. Chirag Patel in Surat, contact the team promptly for heavy bleeding, clots, a high fever, severe pain, or if you are unable to pass urine.
To book a consultation with Dr. Chirag Patel in Surat, visit during OPD hours on Monday and Thursday, 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Please bring your earlier reports, scans, and prescriptions, along with a list of all the medicines and supplements you take.
