Please discuss the trouble older men have with frequent trips to the bathroom. Is this caused by the prostate and if it continues will it damage the kidneys?--R. A|A. Frequency in older men is often due to benign (non-cancerous) enlargement of the prostate with interference of bladder action. As the condition progresses, more and more urine remains * in the bladder after voiding until finally there is more or less continued fullness. This favors infection of the bladder (cystitis) and the kidneys may become involved. Medical treatment Is a sometimes successful in the early ^.stages of benign prostatic enlargement but the condition may progress to a point where surgery js necessary. Q. Several members of my family have had heart attacks. Is this inherited or could it be due to improper diet? A. The reader probably refers to a heart condition brought,on by changes (atherosclerosis) in the arteries that feed the heart. The tendency to develop atherosclerosis (and thus have a "heart at- ^ tack") seems to depend on ap^ interplay between hereditary and environmental factors. If we inherit the tendency >,to develop atherosclerosis, the process might be checked by living a carefully regulated, stress-free existence. On the other hand, fat, rich foods and constant tension might, in some people, lead to atherosclerosis, even though the tendency to develop the condition had not been inherited. Answers do not necessarily reflect the opinion of all doctors. The diagnosis and treatment of disease is the function of the patient's personal physician. abe t your Bond" Furnace Maintenance Policy ;ing, greater comfort and 20% on your fuel bills!
