Question : I believe I have a prostate problem - I am needing to visit the bathroom 10 times a night, suffer pain when I urinate and only produce a trickle! I am overseas and will not be able to see a doctor for about 5 weeks! I have a serious kidney stone problem as well and suffer incredibly with restless legs! Can you recommend something for the prostate until I can get an examination!

Brief Answer:
Try Tamsulosin

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I will encourage you to drink a little amount of fluid at night.

Also, get Flomax 0.4mg and take a tablet daily at night time to help with this. Ultimately, schedule a visit to your doctor, preferably a urologist, for evaluation and testing. The dosage of Aleve is too much and I encourage you to see a urologist for the kidney stones to be well addressed as well.

I wish you well.
Keep me posted on your progress.
