Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Well I went to the doctor yesterday because I thought I had a bladder infection. They checked my urine and saw no sign of infection or sugar in my urine. I don't know what it is. Lately when I pee my stomach cramps up right after . I'm believing its nothing but I just want to be 100% sure
Hi. Thanks for your query and an elucidate history. The stomach cramps as a reflex mechanism. For the two functions- passing motion and urine the abdominal wall muscles have to work to give an additional pressure . Once you pass out the urine the muscles of the abdomen still feel that they need to press more = so your are getting the cramps. Here you have to undergo the ultrasonography- on a full bladder and again after you are asked to empty bladder. this is to see the '''residual / post-void urine'' after the urine has been passed. And I am sure you are going to have this more than the normal for your age.
This is due to either enlarged prostate / or enlargement of median lobe of prostate / stricture urethra. There may not be an infection at all.
