Suggest Remedy For Pressure In Bladder And Frequent Need To Urinate
Hi, the other day almost immediately after sex I started having what I thought were uti symptoms. The sort of pressure and constant need to pee. I started taking antibiotics that were prescribed to me for reoccurring uti s. But now 4 days later I m thinking it s different. The pressure feels more like it s in my clitoral area. Not exactly painful but irritating. I haven t had any of the burning with urination that usually comes with a uti. Any help? It does seem to subside a big when I apply a tea tree ointment. Thanks!

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query.
A urinary tract infection is most common cause and after antibiotic course, symptoms should subside. So at this point you need to repeat urinoculture and see which bacteria is causing it so that right antibiotic can be used. An overactive bladder is another common cause of frequent urination but some other risk factors may be present: Excessive caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol may also irritate the bladder walls and can worsen frequent urination symptoms. YOu should drink raspberry tea or juice and take more fluids.
If there is pain in clitoris or discharge then STD may be considered and testing should be done.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time
