A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Mohammed Hamoui provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

• Acute Cystitis: Don't ignore the symptoms of acute cystitis; promptly addressing this bladder infection through proper hydration, hygiene, and medical attention is essential for preventing further urinary tract problems.
• Male Sexual Arousal Disorders: Preventive steps, like open communication with your doctor about sexual health concerns, can help manage male sexual arousal disorders and improve intimacy.
• Bladder Infection: Regular check-ups with your doctor, especially if you have a history of bladder infections, are key to early detection and managing this common condition.
• Urinary Incontinence: Urinary incontinence, or accidental urine leakage, can be managed effectively through proactive lifestyle changes and early medical intervention, preventing more serious health issues down the line.
• Vesicoureteral Reflux: Protecting your kidneys from damage linked to vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) involves early detection and management. VUR is a condition where urine flows back up toward your kidneys, and proactive care significantly reduces complications.
• Urinary Stones: Understanding your family history and personal risk factors for urinary stones allows for proactive strategies to minimize your chances of developing painful and potentially harmful stone formation.
• Prostate Stones: Early detection of prostate stones is crucial because, while many men experience no symptoms, they can lead to urinary tract infections and other issues. Routine screenings with your doctor are key to preventing such complications.
• Urethral Stricture: Regular self-monitoring for urinary symptoms, such as straining or a weak urine stream, coupled with timely medical attention, can prevent urethral stricture from progressing and causing further harm.
• Urethra Cancer: While uncommon, urethra cancer can be managed more effectively with early detection, highlighting the importance of seeking medical attention for any concerning urinary symptoms.
• Bladder Cancer: While you can't always prevent bladder cancer, proactive steps like knowing your family history and getting regular check-ups can dramatically improve your chances of early detection and successful treatment.
• Urinary Tract Cancer: While some urinary tract cancers have genetic links, making proactive lifestyle modifications can help mitigate risk and prevent the development of this serious condition.
• Urinary Retention: If you experience difficulty urinating or a weak stream, don't ignore it – early detection and treatment of urinary retention can significantly reduce the risk of long-term health problems.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Mohammed Hamoui:

What is a Urologist?

A urologist is a surgical specialist who diagnoses and treats conditions of the urinary tract in both men and women, and the male reproductive system. They manage a wide range of issues, from kidney stones and urinary tract infections to cancers of the prostate, bladder, and kidneys.

At what age should men start discussing prostate cancer screening?

Discussions about prostate cancer screening, including the PSA blood test, typically begin around age 50 for average-risk men. For higher-risk men, such as African American men or those with a family history, this conversation should start earlier, around age 40-45. This decision will be made in a shared discussion with Dr. Hamoui.

What is BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), and is it related to cancer?

BPH is a very common, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that occurs as men age. It is not prostate cancer and does not increase the risk of developing it. Dr. Hamoui and our practice offer many effective treatments to manage the urinary symptoms BPH can cause.

What are the treatment options for Erectile Dysfunction (ED)?

Dr. Hamoui and our team offer many effective, modern treatments for Erectile Dysfunction (ED). Common first steps include oral medications like Viagra® or Cialis®. Other options include vacuum devices, injections, and penile implants. We can confidentially discuss the best approach for you.

Can erectile dysfunction be a sign of another health problem?

Yes, erectile dysfunction (ED) can often be an early warning sign of underlying cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or other health issues. A consultation with Dr. Hamoui is an important step in a proactive, overall health screening, not just to treat the ED.

What is an 'overactive bladder' (OAB)?

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition characterized by sudden, frequent, and urgent urges to urinate, which can be difficult to control and may lead to leakage. It's a common condition, and Dr. Hamoui can offer many effective treatments, including behavioral strategies, medications, and advanced therapies.

What are the signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI)?

Signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI) can include a frequent or urgent need to urinate, a burning sensation during urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and pelvic pain. See Dr. Hamoui for diagnosis and treatment with antibiotics to prevent potential kidney infection.

What are urodynamics?

Urodynamic testing is a series of tests that evaluate how well the bladder and urethra are storing and releasing urine. These tests help Dr. Hamoui understand the precise cause of complex issues like incontinence or difficulty urinating, leading to a more effective treatment plan.
