Our Greatest Wealth is Health: BPH Treatment

admin — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 17:16:59 +0000

“Health is wealth” is a saying that rings true with a lot of people. However, some people find themselves facing conditions that they would rather not have to deal with. One condition that affects over 50% of men over the age of 60 is benign prostatic hyperplasia, of BPH. And just like any other condition, BPH treatment is available. Treatment options range from non-invasive methods such as medication and out patient Cooled ThermoTherapy to surgery. If you find that your health is not as you would like it to be, talk with your doctor and make the changes necessary to restore yourself.

Cooled ThermoTherapyTM is available by prescription only. This therapy is not for everyone. Talk to your physician to see if Cooled ThermoTherapy is right for you. Most medical procedures may have side effects. Possible side effects for Cooled ThermoTherapy include blood in urine, clots in urine, painful or difficult urination, thickened bladder muscle, rectal irritation, temporary inability to control urination, brief inability to achieve or maintain swelling of the male organ and the inability to discharge semen at climax, thus should be considered by men who wish to have further offspring. A small risk of urethral stricture may result requiring further intervention. Patients may experience discomfort during the procedure that may require the use of analgesics or sedatives. Patients may be catheterized for a 2 to 5 day period following the treatment.1 For more complete information about the benefits and risks associated with Cooled ThermoTherapy please refer to the Instructions for Use found on our website at www.cooledthermotherapy.com or call us at 1.800.475.1403.

My neutered 8 year old mix breed dog has a enlarged prostate. What can I do?

admin — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:14:36 +0000

He also has some crystals in his urine. He went on anti-biotics and ant-infamatory med today. How can I help him. I live in Panama and the vet said no surgery is available. Again he is neutered. The vet said his prostate should be the size of a grape and it is the size of a plum. He weighs 15 lbs.

See if the meds help. If not you may have to end his suffering for him, humanly.

What is the difference between prostatic adenoma and benign prostatic hyperplasia?

admin — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:14:33 +0000

Prostatic adenoma is cancer, plain and simple. Benign hyperplasia is simply enlargement of the prostate gland. The latter occurs to most men, if they live long enough. It becomes an issue only if it enlarges to the point that urination becomes difficult.

I am 68 years old and suffering from enlarged prostate & normal PSA. Any suggestions for alternative medicine?

admin — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:14:21 +0000

A Urologist has confirmed my enlarged prostate and suggests laser treatment, but I would prefer Alternative medicine such as Ayurveda or homeopathy. I am confused there are so many advertisements such as AVMAZON, AYURSTATE, NATURALYPURE, HEALTHLINE, etc.all claiming remarkable results from their products. Kindly advise if any one has successfully used any such product to cure this problem. Many thanks.

LASER PROSTATE Surgery New Thulium Laser 120 treatment postatic hypertrofy

admin — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 00:15:25 +0000

The Laser Urology Centre Arezzo Italy http://www.urologialaser.it/index_en.html
was born thanks to the experience of Doctor Stefano Mattioli, who was the italian urologist who first introduced the use of laser in urologic surgery rooms ever since 1984. Doctor Alessandro Picinotti is another promoter of the centre and the one who means to continue such procedures through divulgation and spreading of information about the use of laser in urology.
Doctor Ugo Doria and Doctor Monica Sbragi are part of the equipe as well, both of them own experience in surgery and in medical clinic. The medical staff at the centre can offer qualified information as to the most modern tecniques concerning the use of laser in urologic surgery rooms, since the medicians operate in more than one health care facility and have been gaining, over the years, knowledge and practice of the lasers on the market at present: Tullio Laser, KTP Laser and Holmium Laser.
Since 2000 the use of Holmium-Yag Laser spreads over, it can be considered the initiator of a modern era because it is still employed in urologic surgery rooms and it was the beginning of the collaboration of Doc. Mattioli and Doc. Picinotti.
In July 2002, Doc. Mattioli shows for the first time another innovative laser, especially for the treatment of prostatic hypertrophy: it was KTP Green-Light Niagara (Corriere Salute 22/10/2002) and, learning the tecnique from his Master, Doc. Picinotti uses it for the second time ever in Italy and today it is still used in some centres in Italy, including ours. The introduction of Thulium Laser, in 2004, was another foundamental stage. Once again employed for the first time in Italy by Doc. Mattioli, it combines in one instrument the features of the two previous models, with greater precision and even less side effects (which were, in any way, very scanty).

In December 2006, the friendship and professional relation which link Doc. Mattioli and Doc. Picinotti, bring to the birth of the Laser Urology Centre.
