Hi Issa,
I have issues with urinary retention. I've worn catheters for up to a month at a time and finally ended up on medication. My Urologist thinks it may be Behcet's related and he gave me a men's prostate medicine called Flomax. I am not sure exactly how Flomax works but it does help me urinate. In fact, I don't even know whether or not I can wee without it! Flomax is the name in the US (where I live) and I am not 100% sure if the name is the same in the UK.
Hope this helps somewhat.

Hi, drinking lots (even though you might not want to), applying pressure on the bladder with your fist, having a hot water on your bladder or taking a hot bath then trying to wee can help
