Hi,
It might be UTI or BPH. Need to investigate physically to rule out both. If you are feeling burning micturition along with abdominal pain, it will be mostly due to UTI. If you can't void it fully and have difficulty in micturition, it might be a BPH.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
