Painful urniation

Need help. I am up 4-5-6 times a night peeing.  When it go it is not for long and it hurt like a MFer.  I also go a lot during the day and painful to the point of tears.  DR says NP.  What do you guys think ?  Please reply with email not to the posting.

Had this happen in the not too distant past.
They ended up putting me on 2 different heavy duty antibiotics and it cleared the issue up.
They also put in a Catheter 3 times to make sure that I didn't have some kind of blockage going.  Believe me you don't want that.
They also did an ultrasound to make sure it wasn't stones.

It ended up being an infection and the antibiotics cleared it up.
They didn't find anything on any of the the urinalisys that they did.  So the infection route was just a guess since none of the other tests showed anything either.  After being on the drugs a couple days, it resolved.

The cause can be everything from a UTI (urinary tract infection) to an STD, such as gonorrhea, as far as painful urination goes ..     However, due to the frequency of urination I would say much more likely the former, esp. if you are not at risk for an STD ..     An enlarged prostate can also cause frequent, painful and strained urination that often ends up in "dribbling" at the end of going .. 

It sounds like you need to go see a Urologist (sp?), sometimes a PCP won't cut it. If you are in pain, and peeing that often, it is a problem, for your doctor to say no problem is insane.

Some type of urinary infection or possibly kidney stones? I'd fget to aa doctor, probably a urologist.  Good luck to ya!
