Suggest Treatment For Urinary Retention In A Child
My daughter age 6 is having a problem urinating. When she does go she says it doesn t hurt or anything but she isn t going very much . She drinks a sufficient amount of fluids. Also sometimes when she does go she sits a good while on the toilet before she can. What could be going on?
Hello and welcome to HCM. As an Urologist, she'll need certain tests to find out the reason, for delay in passing urine. You should get her urine routine and culture test done. Also, blood creatinine. Get her examined by a pediatrician, with the reports. An ultrasound scan of abdomen may be done if the problem has been going for over 7-10 days. If you want an expert opinion here, you may send the question, directed in my name, with all the reports. Wishing your daughter well.
