Urinating

[versa2508]

I FIND WHEN URINATIING ,I OFTEN HAVE TO PUSH QUITE HARD RATHER THAN IT JUST FLOWING OUT.ALSO ALWAYS FOUND I GET A VERY FREQUENT NEED TO URINATE,LIKE I CAN FEEL IT BUILD BUT IT MAY ONLY BE A SMALL AMOUNT RATHER THAN DOING 1 BIG PEE EVERY FEW HOURS.DOES THIS SOUND LIKE A PROBLEM ?

Hi there!

Have you considered that it could possibly be your prostate?

Might be worth seeing your GP and asking for his/her opinion.

Hope you can get the problem resolved quickly.

Take care, and all good wishes.

might well be an enlarged prostate which restricts the flow of urine & also pushes against your bladder increasing the frequent need to pass urine….. go to the your doctor & get it checked out… only takes a quick examination & your doctors seen it all many times

How would they check that ?

Advice I was given was to drink more water and only go when you HAVE to go.

So when you feel the need to go, hang on, say 5 minutes, then 10 and build up the time. It worked for me, overnight I am rarely up more than once, down from 3 or 4 times. During an average day from 5 Am til 10 Pm I go four/five times. Down from something like every hour !

If no improvement go see your Doc'
