For several months I have felt a pressure on my bladder, I often urinate even after drinking small amounts of fluids. In the first few months of my symptoms, I felt a greater pressure than now (even without drinking fluids for several hours). I have had chronic constipation for 6 years, I pass feces sometimes once a week. I received a referral from a general practitioner to a gastroenterologist who ordered a number of tests - the results were correct. I was given medication and diet, but the problem remained. Another doctor stated that it was caused only by my psyche - nervousness or that it simulated. This is a sad situation for me, especially since I urinate during exercise.
The large intestine (rectum) is located together with the bladder in the small pelvis. If most of the space is filled with the distended intestine with residual fecal masses, the bladder has relatively less space, it is compressed by the intestine with fecal masses. What's going on? - the volume of the bladder decreases, it contains little urine and there is pressure. First of all, you should visit a gastroenterologist, regulate bowel movements, or perform enemas every two days. After removing the stools, the bladder will have more space to fill with age-appropriate urine, i.e. 400 ml.
