Urology

Urology is the specialty that deals with problems in the urinary tract; the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. There are three main components to urology; stones, cancer, and problems with weeing:

Stones

Urinary tract stones can occur anywhere so rather than putting them on seperate pages, I've jammed them all on one. This is for kidneys, ureter and bladder. (If a stones in the bladder, it'll probably pass through the urethra fairly easily).

Other stuff

• Urinary Tract Infection is the most common urological condition, and as such is usually dealt with through GPs.
• Urology comes up a bit in paediatrics - mostly as UTIs in kids.
• Neurological conditions such as MS, Spinal cord injury and Parkinson's can have severe urological symptoms.
