Hello,
It might be a problem with bowel gas if you are also feeling bloated.
I advise getting a urine home testing (buy at your local pharmacy) to rule out urinary tract infection (UTI).
Plus, if you are bloated, should avoid foods that would cause gas, and take simethicone with carbon to relieve bloating.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
