questions

• Which department should I see for frequent urination?
  Urology(비뇨의학과) is generally the first department to consider for frequent urination, as it specializes in the urinary tract and bladder. Depending on your overall health history, you may also be referred to Internal Medicine(내과) — for example, if diabetes or kidney-related causes are suspected.
• Which department should I see for painful or burning urination?
  Urology(비뇨의학과) is generally the first department that handles painful or burning urination, as this symptom is most commonly related to the urinary tract. Depending on the underlying cause, women may also be referred to Obstetrics and Gynecology(산부인과), and if a systemic or infectious cause is suspected, Internal Medicine(내과) may be involved.
• Which department should I see for sudden severe flank pain?
  Urology(비뇨의학과) is generally the first department to evaluate sudden severe flank pain, as one of the most common causes is a urinary tract stone blocking the ureter. Depending on findings, you may also be referred to Internal Medicine(내과) or Surgery(외과) if other organ systems appear to be involved.
