So can anyone please answer my question?

I recently had a cystoscopy because of having difficulty urinating for almost a year. When they filled my bladder with water (no anesthesia) it was extremely uncomfortable and the maximum capacity that I could tolerate was well under normal. From the appearance of the bladder wall (lots of engorged, knotted blood vessels) the urologist felt that I likely have IC. He prescribed something that is supposed to help with frequency, urgency and...

Hey i have similar issues as you. So I have some insight on this. I have 2 ideas as to what this is. My first thought was maybe your urethra is being scratches or bruised during sex which would explain the tenderness when going to the bathroom...so you could try switching positions a few times durning sex. My second idea would be you are getting some bacteria pushed up there during sex which causes the pain, and your body has been fighting it...

I am 22 years old, I don't really have much of a medical history but I think I have a colon disease, not 100% sure though.. I don't eat that much everyday, just some cookies, some granola bars and usually only eat 1 meal a day. If I am drinking just a little bit I will urinate like 30 mins after that, I will go pee 3 or more times within the next 2 hours and then after that many times I don't go pee as much. Everytime I go a lot...

what causes urine to foam and bubble?

I have had the same issues!!! I have had symptoms of UTI's, been to my doc, and had red blood cells show up, but no white cells, and she said it was because I was in menopause and my urethra was "dry" and bleeding a bit. Yeah right. I bought that for a while, but it just kept getting worse. I referred myself to a urologist, who did a cat scan, ultrasound, xrays, which were all normal. His last test was a cystoscope,...

THat is difficult to answer without knowing your age, and your medical history...and foods you eat. You say you peed 3 times ...3 times in 24/hr? 3 times an hour ???? 3 times a day would seem pretty normal. anything less would seem odd. Not really sure what you mean by peeing a lot without more information.

Wednesday before thanksgiving i found a lump on my right testicle. Went to the e.r. friday evening to have it checked out. er doc felt it and said that it was something to be worried about 60/40 chance it could be cancer. ultrasound done saturday morning. er called sunday evening and said it looked like the lump was in the epidydimus and probably not a big problem. went to family doc last night and he said testicles were clear so it probably...
