Kidney stones explained: From symptoms to prevention

Kidney stones are hard mineral deposits that form in the kidneys and can cause anything from mild discomfort to intense pain, especially when they fall into the ureter (the tube that connects the kidneys with the bladder) and blocks the flow of urine causing swelling of the kidney (hydronephrosis). The stones are then called ureteric stones and the severe pain is called Renal Colic or Ureteric Colic. By understanding the causes, symptoms, and treatments for kidney stones, you can take steps to manage or even prevent kidney stones effectively. We speak to esteemed consultant urologist Mr Stefanos Almpanos who explains their causes, symptoms and steps to manage or even prevent kidney stones effectively.

PSA and concerns about prostate cancer

One of the major symptoms of prostate cancer is the prostate getting bigger. However, not every case of prostate enlargement suggests or leads to cancer – sometimes, the prostate increases in size on its own as time goes by, in a phenomenon called benign prostate enlargement (BPE). An enlarged prostate will produce a prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a type of protein that will be present in the blood, regardless of the cause of the enlargement. In this article, a consultant urologist explains more about the relationship between PSA and prostate cancer concerns.
