benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Question by Me+GSP: benign prostatic hyperplasia? So i had this exam today and this was a question..... Your patient comes in to the ER with SEVERE symptoms of BPH, what would be your most immediate concern? a. renal calculi b. renal insufficiency c. prostate cancer .....any ideas?? thank you! that was the answer i went with. i was between renal calc and renal insufficiency, but i figured renal insufficiency would be the most logical to pick and plus if they had renal calc they have severe pain in the flank area...and i don't think BPH has flank pain...just bladder pain. thanks for the help!!! Best answer:

Answer by MisMischievousWell I am not a doc but the renal insufficiency will kill quicker than the rest and must be ruled out first. Renal calculi can cause pain & blockage, but
