Not Sexual- Problem With Bladder Or Kidneys Posted: 03-27-05 19:33pm
I always have this sensation like I have
to urinate but nothing comes out. This
started yesterday. I have also been
having some lower back pains. Today the
sensation was very uncomfortable. It's
horrible feeling like you have to go but
not being able to. Any thoughts on what
this might be?

Yeah, it could very well be a bladder or
kidney infection, or both. I would call
your doc tomorrow morning to go in a get
checked. You just have to pee in a cup
and if there is certain bacteria in it
they will give you antibiotics to clear
the infection.
Or it could be another urinary problem.
A friend of mine had her urethra collapse
and wasn't able to go at all. She ended
up full of poison and very, very ill
because it took so long for them to figure
out what was going on. So, don't wait,
kidney infections that are let go are also
very dangerous.

Hey, sorry for your troubles! To me, it
sounds like a kidney infection because of
the back pain. I tend to get a lot of
bladder infections, which just cause
cramping in the front, kinda like period
cramps, and the doc always kinda hits my
back on each side to check for pain in the
kidneys. Like hotasfrick said, just go
get checked out! No matter what it is,
the sooner you get meds, the better. Til
then, drinking cranberry juice and lots of
water should help a little. Good luck!

Yep, as the ladies said. Kidney
infection. Cranberry juice / cranberry
extract, milk thistle, or alpha lipoic
acid (ala) are all available at your local
nutrition house and can help you out.
