Hi and welcome to HCM.
Well, this should not be problematic if done once or few times. but repeated urine holding may increase risk of uroinfection and urinary stones formation so it should be definitely avoided before such complications occur. you need to drink more fluids and raspberry tea to clear up your urinary tract.
Thanks for the query. Regards
