Hi there

 

You sound like you need a good check up from your Dr. He/She will most likely order a urinalysis (urine test) to test your urine for bacteria. If bacteria is present, they will most likely place you on antibiotics for a period of time. They may also do a prostate exam and do some lab work associated with the prostate. I would suggest going in for a check up to stay 'in good health'!

 

Hope this helps! Best of luck!

I would like to add that you should make sure you are drinking enough throughout the day. Be sure to drink atleast 6 to 8 glasses of water per day and avoid carbonated beverages and caffeine.

 

The Physician will also probably want to check for blood sugar levels as increased urination is a sign of Diabetes.
