which doctor to consult for urinary problems - #19188
I am trying to figure out which doctor to consult for urinary problems 'cause I've been having these annoying issues for a few weeks now. It started with just a little discomfort when I pee, nothing major, but then I noticed I was going more often than usual, like every half hour, and it was becoming really frustrating. I thought maybe I just needed to drink more water or something, but that didn't help at all. I even had some major pain in my lower abdomen, and I thought, "Great, what’s going on here?" I went to my family doctor, and they did some basic tests, but didn't really give me a clear idea of which doctor to consult for urinary problems, and that left me feeling unsure. They mentioned maybe a urologist could help, but honestly, I thought urologists were for more serious stuff? They said it could be an infection, but I’m not sure if I should go straight to a specialist or see someone else first. Anyone had experience figuring out which doctor to consult for urinary problems? Like, how do I know if I’m going down the right path or if I’m just wasting time? I'm really anxious about this whole thing and just want to get it resolved asap.
