Prostate problems (begnin vs malignant)
I agree, see a urologist. Preferable one recommended by Sheryl on The Health Forum. I think an experienced urologist can do all the blood and urine tests, then check with his finger any irregularities with the prostrate. With me the urologist said the problem with the prostrate is usually 1 of 3 things. For me it was a burning sensation that did not show up as an infection on any tests but from the urologists experience he thought low grade infection that is difficult to treat, so antibiotics for a month to start with then a flow test. -

Father & Two-Year-Old Daughter Shot by Neighbour in Suspected Revenge Attack
Picture from responders. A father and his two-year-old daughter were shot and injured by their neighbour in what is suspected to be a revenge attack stemming from a decades-old feud. The incident occurred in Kamphaeng Saen District, Nakhon Pathom Province, on the evening of 21 February. According to police reports, at approximately 19:45, officers at Kamphaeng Saen Police Station received a report from Kamphaeng Saen Hospital regarding two individuals suffering from gunshot wounds. Upon arrival, officers found Mr. Thanasak 39, with a gunshot wound to his right side, which had exited through his back. His daughter, Nadha aged two, had sustained a gunshot wound near her right eye. She was later transferred to Nakhon Pathom Hospital for further treatment. Police officers, led by Pol. Maj. Gen. Phongphan Wongmanithet, Provincial Police Chief, along with forensic teams, proceeded to the crime scene. The incident took place in front of Mr. Thanasak’s single-storey home. A blue-and-white Yamaha Fino motorcycle, which Mr. Thanasak had been riding with his daughter, was found with bloodstains on its seat and the surrounding area. Despite his injuries, Mr. Thanasak had managed to ride his motorcycle approximately 30 metres back to his house before being taken to hospital. Following initial investigations, police identified the suspect as Mr. Eka-Oran 43, who lives just 30 metres from the victims. At around 00:30 on 22 February, officers arrested Mr. Eka-Oran and took him to Kamphaeng Saen Police Station for questioning. The suspect later led police to an area near Khao Sapai Raeng Temple in Tha Maka District, Kanchanaburi Province, where he claimed to have discarded the firearm used in the attack. However, the weapon, a .38 calibre handgun, was not recovered. During interrogation, Mr. Eka-Oran admitted to shooting Mr. Thanasak but claimed it was an act of self-defence. He alleged that Mr. Thanasak had passed by his house on a motorcycle, shouted insults at him, and later turned back, leading him to believe he was about to be attacked. In response, he fired his gun in what he described as an attempt to protect himself, unaware that the victim’s young daughter was also on the motorcycle. Following the shooting, he fled the scene in a black Toyota Vigo pickup truck. Reports suggest that the shooting may be linked to an incident 20 years ago in which Mr. Thanasak allegedly shot and killed the suspect’s father. Mr. Thanasak had served a prison sentence and had been released several years ago. Authorities are investigating whether the attack was premeditated revenge. Local residents reported hearing five gunshots but were initially too afraid to check the scene. It was only later, after the gunfire ceased that neighbours emerged and saw emergency responders taking the injured victims to hospital. Police continue to investigate the incident, with further questioning of all involved parties expected before formal charges are filed. -- 2025-02-23 -

Elderly Man Perishes in House Fire in Nakhon Phanom
Picture from responders. An 81-year-old man lost his life in ahouse fire in Nakhon Phanom during the early hours of the morning of 22 February. The blaze, which consumed the entire wooden home, also destroyed nearly 100,000 baht in savings and five sacks of rice. Authorities are currently investigating the cause of the fire. The fire broke out at approximately 00:30 in Moo 3, Kan Luang Subdistrict, Na Kae District. Upon receiving reports, the Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office dispatched fire engines and rescue teams to the scene. The fire, which had engulfed the house in flames, took around 30 minutes to bring under control. Sadly, the remains of the elderly resident, later identified as Mr. Lai Poompao, were discovered in the charred remains of the house. Emergency responders transported his body to Na Kae Hospital. Eyewitnesses, including 40-year-old neighbour Patcharin Wongnakorn and 68-year-old Lom Poompao, recounted that the fire was first noticed when Patcharin’s daughter heard cracking noises resembling breaking wood. Upon stepping outside, she saw flames already engulfing the roof. Neighbours rushed to alert Mr. Lai by shouting his name, but received no response. They attempted to douse the flames with water but were unable to contain the rapidly spreading fire. It was only after firefighters arrived that the blaze was successfully extinguished, revealing the loss of life. According to Mr. Lom, Mr. Lai was an elderly man who lived alone with no family. His house had no electricity, relying instead on an oil lamp for illumination. Authorities suspect that the fire may have been caused by a fallen oil lamp or another heat source within the home. In addition to the loss of life, Mr. Lai’s life savings of nearly 100,000 baht and five sacks of rice were completely destroyed in the inferno. Investigators continue to examine the site to determine the precise cause of the fire and ensure that such a tragedy does not occur again. -- 2025-02-23 -

Murder in Trang: 31-Year-Old Found Shot Dead
Picture from responders. In a shocking incident, a 31-year-old man was found murdered beneath a rubber tree in Trang, with authorities suspecting he was shot four times with a 9mm firearm. The victim, identified as Tiwakorn Saeheng, had been dead for no more than 12 hours before his body was discovered. At approximately 07:00 on 22 February, police were alerted to the scene in the rubber plantation located in Moo 1, Ban Som Phueng, Pa Lelien District. Officers from the local police station, along with forensic investigators, quickly arrived to examine the body. The victim was found lying on his right side, dressed in a t-shirt and black sweatpants, with visible gunshot wounds to his neck, head, and armpit. Nearby, investigators located the victim’s black Honda Dream motorcycle, which had been reported owned by a resident of Bang Ban District in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya. The vehicle was found in neutral gear with the keys still inserted, suggesting it had been abandoned hastily. Evidence collected from the scene included two knives, scissors, a rubber cutting knife, a lighter, and a mobile phone. Preliminary examinations indicated the victim had likely died around 6 to 10 hours prior to the discovery of his body, with suspicions that he may have been killed elsewhere and later dumped in the plantation to conceal the crime. Eyewitness reports suggested that residents in the area heard gunshots around 17:30 the day before, raising questions about the timeline of the murder. Moreover, the lack of significant blood at the scene led authorities to consider the possibility that he was murdered elsewhere. Local village headman Nopruj Kuanwilai stated that upon the initial discovery, many thought the victim was merely asleep until the grim reality of a murder became apparent. It was noted that the victim was not a local resident, although he had lived in Trang for the past two to three years and was known to have connections in the area. Investigations revealed that Tiwakorn had a criminal history, including prior arrests for drug possession and illegal firearms in 2015 and 2017. These incidents suggest a potential motive related to personal conflicts or drug-related disputes. The police have handed over the body to medical examiners for a detailed autopsy and are actively pursuing leads to identify the suspect(s) responsible for this brutal crime. The investigation continues as officers analyse CCTV footage from the surrounding area and interview witnesses in hopes of uncovering further details related to the case. -- 2025-02-23
