Prostate health (BPH, prostatitis)

 BPH & Prostatitis Specialist in Jalandhar – Dr. Rajesh Aggarwal | Sarvodya Hospital

Prostate Health: BPH & Prostatitis

Prostate health is a key concern for many men, especially as they age. At Sarvodya Hospital under Dr Rajesh Aggarwal, we specialize in diagnosing and treating common prostate conditions, including Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and Prostatitis. Whether you’re experiencing urinary symptoms, pelvic discomfort, or changes in quality of life, we’re here to provide compassionate, expert care.

What is Prostate?

The prostate is a small gland located just below the bladder and in front of the rectum. It plays a vital role in male reproductive health by producing seminal fluid. However, as men age, the prostate can become enlarged or inflamed, leading to a range of symptoms.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)

What Is BPH?

BPH is a non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that commonly affects men over 50 years of age. As the prostate grows, it can press against the urethra, causing urinary problems.

Common Symptoms of BPH:

  • Frequent urination, especially at night
  • Weak or interrupted urine stream
  • Urgency to urinate
  • Difficulty starting urination
  • Incomplete bladder emptying
  • Dribbling at the end of urination
Diagnosis of BPH:
  • Digital rectal exam (DRE)
  • Urine flow study
  • Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test
  • Ultrasound or cystoscopy (if needed)
BPH Treatment Options:

Treatment depends on symptom severity and may include:

  1. Lifestyle Modifications
  • Reducing caffeine and alcohol
  • Scheduled bathroom trips
  1. Medications
  • Alpha-blockers to relax prostate muscles
  • 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors to shrink the prostate
  1. Surgical Options
  • TURP (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate)
  • Laser therapies
  • Prostate enucleation

We work closely with you to choose the treatment that best fits your needs and lifestyle.

What Is Prostatitis?

Prostatitis refers to inflammation or infection of the prostate gland and can affect men of all ages. It is often painful and sometimes difficult to diagnose.

Common Symptoms:

  • Pain or burning during urination
  • Pelvic, perineal, or lower back pain
  • Painful ejaculation
  • Frequent or urgent need to urinate
  • Flu-like symptoms (with acute infection)

Diagnosis:

  • Urine and blood tests
  • Prostate exam
  • Semen analysis or prostate secretion testing
  • Imaging (if needed)

Prostatitis Treatment:

  • Antibiotics (for bacterial types)
  • Alpha-blockers to improve urine flow
  • Anti-inflammatory medications
