Can proctitis cause frequent urination and urgency?
Proctitis generally does not cause frequent urination or urinary urgency. Proctitis mainly causes symptoms such as the passing of mucous stools, purulent bloody stools, and a sense of incomplete evacuation after defecation. If a patient experiences frequent urination and urinary urgency, they should visit the urology department of a regular hospital. It's possible that there could be urinary tract stones or an infection, requiring a routine urine analysis and ultrasonic examination of the urinary system. In addition, for proctitis, it is necessary to take oral medication to adjust the intestinal flora. Attention should also be paid to the diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and opting for bland, easily digestible foods.
