I have pants that are a bit too tight, but I have to wear them for work, and I can not afford to buy new dress pants. When I am at work and wearing them, I feel I have to use the restroom more frequently, but I never feel relieved. I don t feel that way at home wearing more comfortable pants. Are my works clothes causing problems with my bladder?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Compressive and tight fitting dress can cause increased pressure in the bladder and may lead to pain and discomfort. It may alter your frequency of urination due to bladder irritation. It is better to avoid too tight clothing. If symptoms persist, better to do an ultrasound to look for any post voidal residual urine. Wishing you good health. Thanks
