Brief Answer: hello Detailed Answer: If this frequent urination is recent addition to her symptoms , then its very likely that she has got urinary tract infection. Ideal step would be to get urine routine test and put her on courses of antibiotics. If she is comfortable she can use adult diaper so that she doesnt have to go to washroom so frequently. If symptoms persist after this, she will have to see urologist. Hope this helps.Please ask if there are doubts.Regards.
