Nephrologist 's  Response
Based on your symptoms and history - if you have had imaging CT/Ultrasound and there were no stones identified, I would suggest looking into the following:

-Urinary tract infection
-if male and >/= 40 years old consider evaluation of prostate and bladder outlet obstruction from proste
-overactive bladder
-urinary retension

I would suggest speaking with your primary care doctor first, get a urinalysis, PSA & digital rectal exam if male and post void bladder residual. Based on this your primary care doctor should be able to determine if you need urologic evaluation
