I am going to the urologist today but I don't know what is going on.

I have a lot of pressure and feel like I have to pee all the time. When I go, there is no burning. Just a lot of pressure. I have been seeing some blood but am not sure if it is a UTI ora gynecological problem. Any thoughts?

I also happen to be on antibiotics right now (4th day) for an ear infection.

Thanks!!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

So I saw the doctor and he told me that because of the anitbiotics that I am on, he can't tell if there is an infection. But he feels that's what it is. Thanks, moms!

Any other symptoms? Painful cramps, very gassy, heavy/clotted bleeding with cycle? I have endometreosis and when it's acting up, this is a symptom for me. Feels like pressure in my lower abdomen, almost like I am pregnant

It could be the start of a UTI or maybe some issue with the pelvic wall muscles being weak?
Good luck at the doc!

I had similar symptoms once, same as you, and it turned out to be a kinked urethra. Doc prescribed pyridium and lots of fluids to flush it out. The pyridium made me sick, so I just drank a ton of fluids, and I haven't had the problem since.

I had those symptoms but no blood. After many months and a few tests it turned out I had a stricture (it is like a kink) in my urethra so my bladder could not empty and I had constant bladder spasms. It took the doc less than 5 minutes to fix but I suffered for 8 months. good luck!

I had that and it was not a uti. Went to the gyno and said everything was clear. Basically it was probably a starter uti i knocked with my homeopathic stuff but had an irritated ureter.
