What Causes Pain And Discomfort While Urinating?
My son is 10 yrs. old and has had pain and discomfort when urinating for about 2 months. On a couple of occasions there has been blood in his urine but not recently. Right now he still has pain when urinating and he says it feels like something inside is blocking his urine flow. We have seen several doctors including a uroligist and they have ran all kinds of tests but cannot find anything. I am taking him tomorrow morning to see the uroligist.

There is surely something wrong. You also mentioned a history of blood in urine. This with pain usually happens with urolithiasis that is stone in the urinary tract. I suppose you should surely visit an urologist and get some more tests done to exclude the possibilities. Test should include a routine urine exam and also and intravenous pyelogram if previous ultrasonographies are normal.
