HI
Thanks for your query.
Difficulty in draining urine could be due to two reasons:
1) An obstruction to the passage of urine which could be due stones, stricture (narrowing) or scarring (or fibrosis)
2) A problem in the muscles of the bladder.
The cause of obstruction can be picked by a CT scan or a cystoscopy while uro dynamic studies will be required to look for bladder muscle problems.
Based on your history and examination the doctor will decide what kind of investigations you require.
Hope this helps
Good luck.
