What Causes Burning Sensation In The Chest During Urination?
I have a bladder infection , but often when I urinate, I have a terrible burning in my chest the whole time I urinate. My doctor and nurse both said today they have never heard of this. Sometimes I have the burning even when I don t have the infection. It is very painful.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
This could be related to the increased abdominal pressure during voiding, which could lead to stomach acid reflux to your esophagus. A trial of proton pump inhibitor seems relevant, and if this does not relieve your symptoms, a gastroscopy could be relevant.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
