Hi there,
Had a cycling accident last week and hit 'lady parts' very heavily on crossbar - ouch! Had some pinprick-sized bleeding immediately afterwards, some cloudy urine and local discomfort. Three days later developed urinary urgency, urethral soreness after urnination and thought it was a UTI. GP diagnosed microscopic haematuria and gave me 3 days of antibiotics just in case of a UTI.
Urine sample has come back negative for infection, but am still experiencing urinary urgency and stinging AFTER urination and local urethral soreness 6 days after the accident. Spoke to another GP who started mentioning bladder cancer! Have not even been examined even though I told 2 GPs of accident. No mention of other possibilities either.
Have experienced symptoms like these before many years ago (20-30) when no UTI was found - was told I just had an 'irritable bladder'.
Am confused and scared and don't want unnecessary investigations when all my symptoms came on after my 'accident'.
Any suggestions?
