hi all,

I've got a constant urge that I need to urinate it's gone on for about a week now, therefore I find I use the loo alot more than usually, and after going I still feel to go. It feels like someone is pushing down on my bladder or that it's full and it's constant 24/7.

I had something similar about 18 months ago that went away after a week or two.

anyone any ideas or had the same thing?

thanks

jon

    It could be due to many things but the first thing you should get checked out is an infection in your urine. You need to see your doctor with a small pee sample to get it dip checked.

    You dont say how old you are but it could also be due to an enlarged prostate. The older you are the more likely this becomes. Again you need a doctor to advise you.

    If you are in the older age bracket there is also the possibility of bladder stones which will irritate the lining of your bladder.

    If this becomes a real problem for you then you must see your doctor, or a urologist.
