Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Get a cystoscopy done to rule out any bladder inflammation.
2. Increased frequency of micturition indicates possible irritation in bladder.
3. Take plenty of water. Get a urine culture done to look for any infection. If positive, specific antibiotic treatment is necessary. If not, get cystoscopy done.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
