The symptoms have been present for several months and have increased in frequency over the past week.<\/h4>\n<p>Urinary frequency is a genitourinary disorder that presents problems for adults across the lifespan. It can be the result of various systemic disorders such as diabetes urinary tract infections enlarged prostates kidney infections or prostate cancer. Many of these disorders have very serious implications requiring thorough patient evaluations. When evaluating patients it is essential to carefully assess the patients personal medical and family history prior to recommending certain physical exams and diagnostic testing as sometimes the benefits of these exams do not outweigh the risks. In this Discussion you examine a case study of a patient presenting with urinary frequency. Based on the provided patient information how would you diagnose and treat the patient?<br \/>\nConsider the following case study:<br \/>\nA 52-year-old African American male presents to an urgent care center complaining of urinary frequency and nocturia. The symptoms have been present for several months and have increased in frequency over the past week. He has been unable to sleep because of the need to urinate at least hourly all day and night. He does not have a primary care provider and has not seen a doctor in more than 10 years. His father died when he was a child in an automobile accident and his mother is 79 years old and has hypertension. The patient has no siblings. His social history includes the following: banker by profession divorced father of two grown children non-smoker and occasionally consumes alcohol on weekends only.<br \/>\nTo prepare:<br \/>\nReview Part 13 of the Buttaro et al. text in this weeks Learning Resources.<br \/>\nReview the case study and reflect on the information provided about the patient.<br \/>\nThink about the personal medical and family history you need to obtain from the patient in the case study. Reflect on what questions you might ask during an evaluation.<br \/>\nConsider types of physical exams and diagnostics that might be appropriate for evaluation of the patient in the study.<br \/>\nReflect on a possible diagnosis for the patient.<br \/>\nReview the Marroquin article in this weeks Learning Resources. If you suspect prostate cancer consider whether or not you would recommend a biopsy.<br \/>\nThink about potential treatment options for the patient.<br \/>\nContent of paper should have all of the following<br \/>\n1. a description of the history that you need to obtain from the patient in the case study.2. Include a list of questions that you might ask the patient.3. Then describe types of physical exams 4. diagnostics that might be appropriate for evaluation of the patient.5. Finally explain a possible diagnosis 6 potential treatment options for the patient based on this diagnosis and 7 conclusion and introduction<br \/>\nResources<br \/>\nReadings<br \/>\nButtaro T. M.
