Cancer of the prostate is the most common cancer in men over 50 in Trinidad and Tobago. Because cancer can easily and successfully be treated in its early stages, early discovery is very important.
Signs that definitely warrant a prostate exam:
Difficulty in urinating – hesitancy (difficulty in starting a stream), turbulence (when the stream is not smooth and gets interrupted during urination)
Frequent urination – urgency (a need to void in a hurry)
Painful urination
A feeling that you have not emptied your bladder
Blood in your urine
Once again these could be symptoms of some other condition, but are key indicators of prostate problems.

What is a Family Practitioner?
Family medicine is a specialty that focuses on general healthcare for people of all ages, from newborns to seniors. Family medicine doctors are primary care physicians (PCPs) who focus on health and wellness within the context of patients’ families, communities, belief systems, and values.

Family medicine physicians treat the whole body. They also emphasize treating patients as whole people rather than just focusing on the disease process or a specific organ.

Dr. Jones has a specialty in Family Medicine and has had the pleasure of treating entire families for the past 15 years.

What is High Blood Pressure?
Normal blood pressure is less than 120/80. High blood pressure is 130/80 or higher, and in between those two is prehypertension -- a major milestone on the road to high blood pressure. How often blood pressure should be checked depends on how high it is and your other risk factors.

Dementia, when diagnosed early helps both the person and family members to learn about the disease and set realistic expectations and plan for their future together. While there is no cure for dementia, healthcare providers have been successful in helping people maintain their mental function, control behavior, and slow the progress of the disease.

Cervical cancer is among a number of cancers that can be caused by infections with pathogens – bacteria, viruses, and parasites.

Increasing screening and prevention are key components of the effort to eradicate cervical cancer. Since almost all cases of the disease are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, vaccines that protect against the virus could prevent the vast majority of cases. Moreover, regular Pap tests can catch – and lead to treatment of – the disease at the precancerous stage.

January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. Ask the women in your life if they've had a pap done recently.

All women should begin cervical testing (screening) from the start of sexual activity or at 21 years. A regular Pap test should be done every year. Beginning at age 30, women who have had 3 normal Pap test results in a row may be tested less often – every 2 to 3 years.
