Urination - Difficulty with Flow: Home Care & Treatment
- Monitor, record, and report your urination patterns to your doctor.
- Apply heat to your lower abdomen (below your belly button and above the pubic bone). This is where the bladder lies. The heat enhances muscle relaxation and aids urination.
- Massage or place light pressure over your bladder to stimulate emptying.
- Drink plenty of fluid, especially fruit juices like cranberry.
- For infections, antibiotics from your doctor will be needed. Symptoms that suggest a possible infection include burning or pain with urination, frequent urination, cloudy urine, and a sense of urgency (strong, sudden urge to urinate.)
