What Causes Pain And Frequent Urination?

I am a male and I have diabetes.I am 64 years old, height 5 10 , weight 210 Ilb. Urinate about approximately every 2 hours or less during the day, I am not circumcised.Pressure/very ticklish/ pain feeling at the tip of the penis before urination.. Ticklish sensation when I stand up and move around and the urge to urinate.I took Bactrim for 10 days and the pain is much less. I finished antibiotic yesterday. I do not have pain on my upper or lower stomach. Sometimes in the night my urine flow is slower and little more pain. Can any you suggest what kind of UTI i have. Thank you

Hi,

UTI's can be caused by diabetes and even antidiabetic medicine. Prostate enlargement is another cause of urine retention that increases the risk of UTIs. Regardless, the bacteria responsible are usually the same, ie. gastrointestinal types, e.g. E. coli or Klebsiella.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
