Patient's question:
I have a weak bladder and lower abdominal fullness, with a strong urge to urinate, but I can't urinate much. When I sit down, it's the same, as if it's holding back. What could be the reason, and how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be a urinary tract infection. Urinary tract infection is a general term for diseases such as pyelonephritis, cystitis, and urethritis caused by bacteria. It falls under the category of "" and "" in traditional Chinese medicine. The main clinical features are usually lower back pain, frequent urination, urgent urination, and painful urination. It is recommended to use Ba Zheng San (Eight Treasure Powder) with modifications for treatment, which can be effective. I believe most people are aware that urinary tract infections can cause significant harm to patients, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, with a focus on light and balanced meals, avoiding irritating foods. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
