If there are complaints typical of cystitis, a man should undergo a comprehensive examination and treatment by a urologist.

Complex diagnosis before treatment of cystitis in men

Common urinalysis shows the presence leukocytes, erythrocytes, epithelium and mucus in the urine. With tuberculous cystitis, the reaction of urine is acidic.

It is important to exclude the presence of organic obstruction during the diagnostic process. For this, uroflowmetry is performed. Urodynamic examination is performed to exclude or confirm detrusor – sphincter dyssynergy.

Therefore, an ultrasound of the prostate is performed, which allows you to evaluate the residual amount of urine, and an ultrasound of the kidneys is also performed. In the presence of chronic cystitis and gross hematuria, cystoscopy is indicated. The procedure allows you to identify the form and nature of inflammation, detect tumors, stones or foreign bodies, and perform a biopsy before treating cystitis.
