Question: Starting yesterday afternoon I have had difficulty urinating without vigorously manipulating the area just behind my scrotum. Weak stream, frequent urges to urinate but can barely get much to come out. I am also having chills and feel like I am catching the flu but do not have a fever. I had to get up last night to try and urinate every 30 minutes and it finally eased off around 7 AM - but I felt weak and thirsty and consumed about 45 ounces of water over the next hour. Felt better earlier today buy symptoms came roaring back at 3 PM this afternoon. My urine does not appear cloudy appears almost clear (what small amount of urine I am able to expend). I intend to seek medical attention tomorrow but have a reserve plan to go to local emergency room if I totally loose the ability to expel any urine. Am I on the right track or should I be doing something else?
