Awareness

Common questions about urology treatments and kidney stones.

What are the common symptoms of kidney stones?

Common symptoms include severe pain in the back, side, or lower abdomen, blood in the urine, frequent need to urinate, nausea, or a burning sensation during urination. If you experience these, it's crucial to consult a urologist promptly.

What is RIRS and is it painful?

Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) is an advanced procedure for removing kidney stones without making any incisions on the kidney. A flexible scope is passed through the natural urinary tract. Since there are no cuts, postoperative pain is minimal, and recovery is very rapid.

When should men get their prostate checked?

Men generally should start prostate screenings around age 50. However, if you have a family history of prostate issues or experience symptoms like difficulty starting urination, frequent nighttime urination, or a weak urine stream, you should see a urologist sooner.

How long is the hospital stay for minimally invasive urology surgeries?

One of the main benefits of minimally invasive surgeries (like RIRS, URSL, or laparoscopy) is the short hospital stay. Many procedures are performed on a day-care basis or require only a 24-hour hospital stay, allowing you to return to normal activities much faster than traditional open surgery.

Do you treat male infertility issues?

Yes, Dr. Santhosh provides comprehensive diagnostic evaluation and advanced treatments for male infertility, addressing structural issues, hormonal imbalances, and other contributing factors.
