Urinary Retention

After an incomplete bladder emptying, an uncomfortable sensation to urinate occurs, resulting from urinary retention. This can cause pain in the lower abdomen and a burning sensation while trying to urinate in acute conditions. Urinary obstruction due to stones, strictures, urethral inflammation, prostate cancer, prostate enlargement, vulvovaginitis, etc., can cause urine retention. Medications, pelvic muscle strengthening exercises, bladder training, catheterization, and urethral stents are available treatment modalities.
