Pediatric Urology in Indore

Descriptions

Urological problems in children encompass a range of conditions affecting the urinary system, including the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra. These issues can manifest as congenital abnormalities, infections, or functional disorders and may impact a child’s growth and development.

Common urological problems in children include:

  • Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): Infections in the urinary tract, which can cause symptoms such as painful urination, frequent urination, and fever. UTIs are more common in girls but can occur in boys as well.
  • Enuresis: Also known as bedwetting, this condition involves involuntary urination during sleep. It is common in young children and can be related to developmental factors or underlying medical conditions.
  • Hypospadias: A congenital condition where the urethra does not open at the tip of the penis but on the underside. It may require surgical correction to ensure proper function and appearance.
  • Vesicoureteral Reflux: A condition where urine flows backward from the bladder into the ureters or kidneys, potentially leading to infections and kidney damage.
  • Kidney Stones: Although less common in children than adults, kidney stones can cause abdominal pain, hematuria, and urinary obstruction.

 

Addressing urological problems in children typically involves a combination of medical evaluation, treatment, and monitoring. Early diagnosis and intervention are essential to manage symptoms effectively and prevent long-term complications.
