What Causes Dripping During Post Urination Having Diagnosed With IBS?
Hello,
I am a 22 year old male with IBS, and recently, I have noticed an increased amount of urine dribbling post urination. I have tried the 'milking' method with much success, and it reduces the dribble considerably. However I still find my boxer shorts damp with a few hours of changing. I drink around 12 cups of coffee a day, and up until recently believed daily masturbation to be beneficial to the prostate.And so, I obviously think this is a problem that is very much self-inflicted, but I just wanted to know if I have identified the elements of my lifestyle that are likely to be causing the problem, and if so will I see an improvement soon? Or is it just a fact of having IBS? Thanks for any helps in advance.

Hi
I do not think irritable bowel syndrome has anything to do with your urinary symptoms.
It is likely coffee is one of the culprit and I advice you to reduce the seame to not more than 2 cups/day.
You will need some tests done like urine analysis to test for infection, ultrasound of urinary tract with post void residual urine and possibly uroflometry to see if you have developed a stricture in urinary tract.
