Question : Sometimes when I urinate I see bubbles in the urine. Is this a problem?
Brief Answer:
Bubbles only is not a problem.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.
Seeing bubbles in urine is not a problem.
However, if associated with increased frequency of urination or burning urination, then it is a problem.
Increased frequency and burning suggests urinary tract infection (UTI).
If associated with urgency and hesitancy, then these symptoms could be due to enlargement of prostate gland.
In such a situation, you need to consult your urologist for clinical assessment of the prostate gland.
If you have more queries, I will be glad to answer.
