Frequent urination in men

Frequent urination in men is considered quite common in old age. However, you should not write off everything only for age. Experts call a lot of reasons that provoke frequent urination. In men, as well as in women, they can indicate the presence of infection.

The condition is characterized by almost constantly arising urges to emptying. These sensations differ significantly from the usual desire, in which the bladder is actually filled. Constantly arising desires are associated, as a rule, with internal discomfort. Do not consider the norm and night desires.

Frequent urination in men, characterized as acute and intolerable, is the very first symptom of infection. As a rule, it promotes the inflammatory process. At the same time, the urinary bladder loses its ability to restrain urine normally. Even a small amount of it can cause discomfort.

Frequent urination in men can also accompany such diseases as:

- Diabetes;

- swelling;

- Dysfunction of the bladder.

The condition can be the result of taking diuretics, radiation therapy.

Constant inflammation of the bladder (interstitial cystitis) also provokes frequent urination in men.

The causes that cause this condition can be detected regardless of age.

However, there is one disease, which in the absence of timely diagnosis causes quite serious consequences. It's about the unrecognized at a certain stage of an enlarged prostate. In fact, the gland is surrounded by the urethra. When it increases, the urethra is squeezed.

In the initial stage of the development of the disease, the urinary bladder pushes the urine with a certain effort. The process is accompanied by a thickening of the muscular wall of the organ. As a result, its sensitivity is increased.

It should be noted that, as a rule, there is an increase in the prostate gland and the frequent urination in men without pain and other special symptoms. There are, however, several notable signs. The disease is indicated by a weak head or interrupted stream, a difficult start of emptying. In addition, after urination, the liquid continues to flow out with droplets. As a rule, in this state, men do not feel relief. Irregularities are signs of incontinence, strong urges, including, at night. If symptoms are found, consult a specialist immediately. It should be noted that the enlargement of the prostate is a very progressive disease, and in the absence of timely help, it can provoke the development of serious complications.

Frequent desire to empty the bladder also accompanies urethritis. This inflammatory process is characterized by a very sharp current, cutting, soreness, and also high fever.

Frequent urges may also accompany the development of a benign or malignant tumor. With cancer and adenoma of the prostate, a rather thin and sluggish stream is formed. It is not capable of describing an ordinary arc, is directed downwards, and the duration of the emptying act is significantly increased.

As a preventive measure, experts recommend limiting fluid intake, training the bladder, correcting infections in time, excluding diuretics after lunch.

It should be noted that men after forty years should avoid hypothermia, stress, eating spicy food and alcohol.

To accurately identify the cause of the development of the condition, you need to contact a urologist.
