What Causes Frequent And Painful Urination In An Elderly Man?

Considerations
Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for sending the question.
I am very concerned that your husband is currently dealing with a urinary tract infection and. Please don't always have classic symptoms such as painful urination. The fact that he has been urinating so frequently and only at small volumes is very suspicious.
Urinary tract infection can sometimes progress and may cause generalized weakness, Fevers or chills and sometimes mental status changes.
One of the common reasons that older males developed urinary tract infection's is enlargement of the prostate.
It sounds like he needs to at least be seen by a local physician as soon as possible for a good physical examination, consultation and possibly your analysis to rule out infection.
If he truly does have a urinary tract infection and antibiotics can help to quickly resolve symptoms. I wouldn't hurt you to discuss this with him and hopefully he will be amenable to going in for the violation as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Dr. Galamaga
