What Causes Pressure In The Lower Abdomen Upon Urinating?

This related to when I urinate. I am 94 years old. My stream is slow to start, and within the last 12 hours when I do start to urinate, it stops too soon. My lower abdomen feels full and somewhat uncomfortable but is not really painful. I am just feeling out of sort. My wife tells me I am not drinking enough water. Any suggestions?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I suggest you to take USG Abdomen to rule out BPH(Benign prostatic hyperplasia) and stones in ureter as your symptoms leads to this diagnosis, consult a urologist. Meanwhile I suggest you to do massage and kegel exercise.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
