Description

Dr. Keith Roach is a physician at Weill Cornell Medical College and New York Presbyterian Hospital. He writes an educational column on infectious diseases, public health and sports medicine.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 63-year-old male in good health. A few weeks back, I could not urinate while standing. The only way I could was by laying on my side, and it was very painful with a burning sensation. I went to urgent care and was then sent to an imaging center. My prostate gland wasn’t appreciably enlarged, so I was sent to the emergency room and had a catheter inserted.
