Worrying about needing to pee probably increases it. That's another reason you should see a doctor rather than post multiple times on here.

I don't know specifically, however I would hazard a guess at yes. Possibly due to the fact that the kidneys filter blood. And with extra biological matter in the blood, it could make the blood ever so slightly thicker. That in itself increases blood pressure. I guess it depends on multiple factors, including preexisting conditions, smoking, your diet and how long you hold it. This all goes off the theory that your body stops processing urine as quickly, when you hold it. But I can't be sure. This is just my best guess.

maybe when u go to the doctor, u can tell them about ur hand, ur fear of veins, get that blood test, and fix ur urine problem. u can also ask any other questions that u posted on tsr

im only saying this because tsr isnt a professional medical platform, and any info u get on here could make any of ur potential conditions worse
