Frequently Asked Questions

Symptoms may include difficulty urinating, weak or interrupted urine flow, urgency, incomplete bladder emptying, lower abdominal discomfort and frequent or nighttime urination.

Urinary retention causes include an enlarged prostate, urethral stricture, stones, constipation, nerve problems, pelvic injury, certain medicines and anaesthesia.

Urinary retention diagnosis may involve examination, post-void residual measurement, cystoscopy or urodynamic tests. Urinary retention treatment depends on its underlying cause.

Acute urinary retention develops suddenly and prevents urination, requiring urgent treatment. Chronic urinary retention develops gradually, allowing urination but preventing complete bladder emptying.

Urinary retention may cause urinary tract infections, bladder damage, kidney damage and urinary incontinence. Early recognition and appropriate management can help reduce these complications.
