Problems when going to the toilet...

Woke up this morning and it hurts when I go to the loo. Its ok until the end and then it hurts a lot, and when i wipe (I'm a girl) there is blood on the tissue.

Obviously i'll go to the doctor tomorrow if its still like this. I've had a urine infection before and I don't remember the blood. But just wondered if anyone knew what it could be or anything I could do about it. I've been drinking loads in an attempt to make sure I actually have stuff to pee out.

It feels weird now when I'm just sitting here but maybe thats cos i'm thinking about it too much?

Don't think anyone on here can really put your mind at rest..
Best thing to do is to stick with your plan of going to the doctors I guess, good luck, sorry this wasn't more helpful XX

Do you think its cystisis?

Was looking online and seems like i have the symptoms.

Not much you can do on a sunday, but buy some cranberry juice because that is good for bladder infections etc.

Sounds like cystitis...but quite a bad case...have you got any back pain?

If the pain is like a burning sensation then it probably is cystitis. Cranberry is good. Chemist might be able to give you something today.
If it's cystitis, you can get some powder things from boots that you mix into water and drink. If that doesn't work after a couple of days you should see a doc.

Are you on the pill? If so, a little bleeding inbetween periods is normal.
I had the same symptoms a few years back.. a few days later I found out I was pregnent (eerrrggg bad memories!).
But if that's not an option for you then it might be cystitis as most people have suggested.
Good luck anyway

Nope no back pain.

Just went to get some of those mix in sachet thingys and just had one.

The blood is only there after i've done a wee, so i think its connected, i don't think its period blood.

Yes i'm on the pill.

Just feel generally a little icky, but that could also be the heat i guess.

The blood is scaring me a little.

The pain is a burning sensation.

It hurts :frown:

Yup, it's agony. Also do you feel you need to wee far too frequently? In which case I'd be sure it's cystitis. Keep drinking even tho you want to avoid going to the loo. It doesn't take too long to get rid of and the relief is fantastic.

Yup i pretty much feel like i need to wee all the time, even when i've just been. I've drunk loads this morning and i'll keep drinking, I hate it :frown:

I'm really worried about the blood though, because its only there when i've done a wee, when i've wiped it off there's none left- so its definitely wee blood, though my actual urine (sorry to be graphic) isn't red or anything, its just after there is some blood.

That's part of it. Don't worry. You're doing all the right things. It will get better - just seems like it never will.

Try not to worry about it. I had an infection a while back. Lots of people get it. Doctors first thing tomorrow!!! xxx

Yup I'll be phoning them up as soon as they're open in the morning. Just my luck to get it on a sunday!

Guess there's not much else i can do except keep drinking water and have another sachet thing later. The one i had earlier has not made any difference yet.

Thanks for all the replies btw, reduced my panic a little!
I had cystitus, it hurts loads just before you finish going for a wee (it's almost like a burning feeling) and i had lots of blood in my urine. I can't tell you it's cystitus, but it sounds like it could be. Still go doctors.

Thats the worst part of cystitus!! And then when you go to the loo you hardly even need to go.

thats pretty much exactly what i have. did the doctor manage to sort it?

how long will it take to go away? :frown:
Don't worry about the blood, the same thing happened to me when I had my last bout of cystitis, but I was told that's because i'm on the pill.

If you take your sachet things you should be alright in a couple of days, the pain will go down soon. Promise!

Should i still go to the doctor tomorrow?
Why not phone NHS 24/NHS direct for advice?
