Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You need to relax. The apprehension might be complicating matters further. Apply hot compress on your lower abdomen and keep the tap water running. The sound of water will stimulate you to pass urine. Try after sometime. I hope it would help. If not, you would need to seek medical assistance.
