\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eUrology - General Practice: The Integrative Approach\u003c/i\u003e. Symptoms suggesting \u003cb\u003eurological pathology\u003c/b\u003e are common presentations in primary care. These include recurrent \u003cb\u003eurinary tract infections\u003c/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003efrequency and urgency of micturition\u003c/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003enocturia\u003c/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eurinary incontinence\u003c/b\u003e. Acute presentations to general practitioners or hospital emergency departments often involve pain: \u003cb\u003eacute loin pain\u003c/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003etesticular pain\u003c/b\u003e and the \u003cb\u003epain of urinary retention\u003c/b\u003e. Some signs may be suspicious for malignancy (e.g. \u003cb\u003ehaematuria\u003c/b\u003e). In addition, lumps in the scrotum and testes are a frequent cause for patient concern. A systematic approach to these presentations is easily followed, and history and examination will provide the diagnosis in the majority of cases.\u003c/p\u003e |
