Bladder & Prostrate
|
Do you get feelings of:
Urgency. The feeling that you need to go right now! Urgency is normal if you haven’t been near a bathroom for a few hours or if you have been drinking a lot of fluids.
Frequency. The feeling that you need to go much more often than anyone else. Most people go between four and seven times a day. If you go more than eight times a day, and you don’t take diuretics or drink large amounts of fluid, it may be the sign of a problem
Pain. The feeling of more than discomfort when you need to go. Having a full bladder may be uncomfortable, but it should not be painful. You may have a problem if you feel burning or sharp pain in your bladder or urethra—the opening where urine leaves the body.
