I have been to a few doctor appointments and doctor’s offices recently dealing with the constant, persistent, and overwhelming feelings of having to pee. Urination is a very common symptom, and I would always be asked to describe the “first time” it started. I’ve never had a headache that was so persistent and debilitating as mine has been consistently throughout my adult life.
The only way for me to describe that feeling is to say that they would occur in the middle of the night, when I would first wake up in the morning. I would lie there for about 10 minutes before I would get up, but I would still be so tired that I would be unable to get out of bed. This kind of thing has always been a persistent and constant reminder that it is time to pee again.
Some people are aware of their need to pee at night and try to “self-nap” during those times, but I really don’t think that’s enough to make this feeling go away. You must force yourself to wake up to the feeling of urine rushing out of your bladder. If you are one of those people who is aware that you need to pee, the best way to do this is to turn on the computer and open a fresh window.
I tend to have a hard time sleeping without the urge to pee. And when it comes to the night before a planned trip to see my brother, it is hard to convince myself that I am not too tired to make it to the airport. But I know that I can always get up and walk around and get to the bathroom just as soon as I feel the need to. The problem is that no matter how hard I try, I just can’t control the urge.
I am not sure if it is just the stress of a long trip or something more. But for every time I have to pee I feel my muscles tense up, my head ache, and my nose and eyes sting. The good news is that your body is very good at regulating urination. It will, in fact, do so to a much greater extent than your brain.
Urination can be very frustrating if you don’t know what to do. That’s why you need a very strong bladder. A good rule of thumb is to try to hold your urine for as long as possible. That will increase your body’s ability to keep the urine inside your bladder. The only limit is your own willpower, but if you are able to hold your urine for long enough, you will no doubt feel better.
There are plenty of ways to get the urine out of your body. If you are having trouble, you can pee standing up, bend over, sit up, or even lie down on the ground and pee. There is even a natural process called kriyas in which your body helps you to expel uric acid naturally. These are not recommended unless you are in extreme need of water. You also need to take some antidiuretic drugs to lower your urine production.
As for the headache, you can take pain killers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen, take anti-inflammatories like naproxen or ibuprofen, or even take painkillers as prescribed. You could also try a cold shower.
It’s really, really difficult to keep a normal blood pressure and bladder control. The antidiuretic drugs can help you a great deal, but with your condition you may not know that you have to take them. You also need to drink more fluids every day, not just water. If you are experiencing frequent urination and headaches, you might want to see a doctor.
Of course, you may be just a little bit dehydrated. If your bladder is filling up with fluid too fast, that could cause a buildup of fluid in the bladder, which can lead to urinating too fast. This buildup can cause more problems. Your kidneys may have to do something to help your bladder get back to normal.
