Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have your medical history and understood your concerns.
I am glad to know that you are not having problems when sleeping.
With regards to the uncomfortable feeling while urinate, it might be related to possible uro-genital problems, commonly occurring at your age.
I suggest to run further tests to identify your real problem:
- abdominal ultrasound
- urine analyses
- PSA
Depending on the test results, specific treatment will be prescribed.
Meanwhile, I advise to:
- drink more water
- take uva ursi, cranberry supplements
- avoid salty, sugary, spicy, citrus foods
- avoid caffeine/energetic drinks
until improvement.
Hope it was of help!
