We know the common symptoms of the disease such as fever and cough. However, all symptoms and features of COVIDâ€19 are still were not known. We aimed to evaluate the change in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) after COVIDâ€19 in men. METHODS: We prospectively assessed 94 patients with COVIDâ€19 during hospitalisation. The patients were divided into two groups according to age, that being over and under age 50. IPSS scores of all patients were enrolled. Additionally, we compared the scores with preâ€COVIDâ€19 values. RESULTS: LUTS scores were found to be increased in elderly patients. Additionally, the severity of the disease did not correlate with LUTS scores. CONCLUSION: LUTS may be one of the symptoms of COVIDâ€19 in some patients. Elderly patients with increased LUTS should be evaluated for COVIDâ€19 when the reason unclear.
