Q: a Feeling I Am Leaking And the Pain From Trying to Stop It!

I have a problem where I always feel like I am going to have urine leak out of my penis. Consquently, I am always tensing whatever muscles in the the lower abdomen that we use to cut off urinary flow. I guess it would be a sphincter type muscle around the upper urinary tract.

The great problem I have is that this constant tensing of the muscle leads to great feelings of nausea and discomfort in my abdomen. I sometimes feel as if I am going to throw up. I often have to sit with my penis wedged between my thighs to give me some comfort that I won't have any leakage.

Often, after I finish urinating, I feel like I am going to leak further once I redress myself.

I have been to my doctor, who tested my urine and to a urologist who gave me an ultrasound and also checked my prostate and found no obvious problems. I am 36 years old and a little worried. This problem has plagued me for the last year and it is driving me nuts!!
