for the older age sleeve gents

Has any one had issues with acute urination pain or a feeling of ongoing constipation in the front? How about having to get up 5-7 x at night to use the bathroom. I do make an effort to dry out before going to bed, but 5-7 x?? To me these sound like worse case prostate cancer and best case UTI when looking up symptoms online, but I am only 36. I have never experienced either of these before.

The symptoms have gotten worse in the last few months. The pain during urination does not happen every time, but when it does, it can be felt in the tract and radiating up towards the bladder. Sorry if TMI. Trying to be as informative as possible to trigger a recognition from someone.

For sure, I will set up an appointment with my PCP. Wanted to know if this could be something else or has anyone else experience with it. I have taken chia seeds daily for 4 months to help with the daily BM now plus my krill oil supplement. I have read somewhere there is a link between long term use of omegas (chia seeds are high) to p-cancer, but don't want to get excited about anything until a doctor diagnoses something.

I tend to be symptomatic about a few thing since surgery which did not turn into anything (at least not yet) so trying to take this one slow. Let me know what you think. Other then this issue, I am in very good health.

  • Instead of the PCP, if your insurance allows, make an appointment with the urologist.

  • I agree. Pre surgery, I never had to get up more than once during the night, usually around 3:00am. But I had untreated apnea, so I suspect that had a lot to do with it. I have had some issue at ti

Hello Fiddleman,

As a guy who has had three TURP's and a couple of UTI's your complaint sounds like a UTI to me. I would suggest a trip to your urologist for confirmation. They will most likely want to order a urine culture and go from their.

Getting up numerous times can wear a guy out. :wacko:
