Hand pain associated with urination or BM.

Same here any answers?

I am a 71 year old female and I I have the same pains in my hands when I have a bladder infection. It only hurts during urination and the only times I have had it is when I experience an infection. The pain is worse in my hands than the pain from the infection. Sometimes it will bring tears to my eyes because of the pain. It, like so many of you, only lasts during urination. I have only started it in the last few months. I am in perfect health and have not yet discussed with my physician.

Your doctor will look at you like you are crazy and not have an answer. I have seen at least 50 posts since I first mentioned this and so far no one has the answer.

Hello! I'm reassured to see someone with a similar problem. I'm an 18 y/o female with no diagnosed problems other than hypermobility. When I need the loo, particularly if I've held it in for a while, I get an intense discomfort and pain in my hands. It's very uncomfortable and absolutely bizarre. So sad to hear how your doctor treated you, how shameful of them!

I have had the same thing. It feels like a bladder infection, burning, and urgency to urinate. I take diuretics prescribed by my dr. To lower my blood pressure. The lasix makes me have to urinate really bad. Sometimes I try to hold it because I am uptown, away from a bathroom. I have to go so bad I can hardly hold it until I can get to a bathroom. What happens is my wrists start to hurt so bad, and I feel like I can't hold my urine. I have to squeeze my legs together or I'll peemy pants! It really hurts! Then while I go, the pain goes away! I even get chills I have to go so bad and it burns.

Me too. Pain in finger tips when desperate to urinate. I am over weight but otherwise all good. Strange isn't it.

I have this when need a BM. I've never thought of it as a problem! Just the way I'm made, like my eyeballs creaking when I rub them. Never thought to ask a doctor. Looked on google out of curiosity. The first reply, about referred pain, seemed to say most.

Here is my latest; I am 68 year old male and have just been told I have prostate cancer. I don't know if that has anything to do with it but recently the pain has gotten worse. This morning I tried raising my hands above my head while going and it helped to reduce the pain by about 50%.

I still have not heard anyone say that their doctor knows why this happens.

So I'm not the only crazy person!!!I just had surgery on my thumb after an injury and now every time I urinate I get pain and a sensation I can't describe in my injured thumb.
I started thinking it was because of a change in internal pressure n but it's not going to work that quickly. Maybe it's something to do with the relaxation response. Whatever it is, it is real and clearly , other people experience it.
What a puzzle!

I am a 61 year old female . I have symptoms of pain that radiates from my lower abdomen , up through my entire chest and down through my arms and very severely into my hands. I do have numerous small kidney stones in both kidney stones and have had forever. This may not be anyone else's cause, but I can relate mine to my body drying to eliminate a stone or the start of a bladder or kidney infection. mdBlanchard- 8/9/2017

I've still got it on and off and it's as uncomfortable as ever. I don't have a water infection but I Wonder from other posts here if it is related to a bladder repair op I had years ago, it always accompanies a sensation of urgently wanting to pass water.

I have pain running down my left arm and hand ( like electricity) when ever I urinate , what's wrong with me?

THAT is the first logical explanation I have heard regarding this symptom. I have an inherited form of Parsonage Turner Syndrome (I.e. acute brachial Neuritis, or neuralgic Amiyatrophy). This condition causes tremendous damage to the brachial plexus. So severe is the pain, this illness is diagnosed by the presence of "agonizing unrelenting pain" that lasts anywhere from a few weeks to a month. Only the strongest narcotic pain meds make a moderate difference. After the pain lets up, you find that a bunch of muscles controlled by the brachial plexus no longer work. That's the amiyatrophy phase of the illness. When you are younger, the paralysis slowly resolves as the nerves regenerate over about a year.

If you're an old guy like me (58) the muscles never really regain their strength. Anyway, it was after my first bout of PTS that I started having the pain while urinating (but only if I hold it past a certain point). I've noticed lots of other small deficits that seem related. My urologist diagnosed a "neurogenic bladder" 15 years ago when I went in for a prostate infection. I wound up having a female physician's assistant who was sweet as can be, but ugly as a hog, do things to my poor penis that would have been effective interrogation techniques. Neurogenic bladder is essentially a short in the wiring that can make it hard to piss. He believed my finger pain stems from all the shorts in my nervous system. PTS seems to be related to the virus that causes shingles, and it is suspected that while the acute episodes are what grabs your attention, the virus may be causing low level damage over time. All of my peripheral nerves show abnormal signaling delays and my reflexes are also delayed.

The reason I bring this up is because the new thinking is that PTS is a LOT more common than originally thought. That's because its hallmark symptom of sudden excruciating pain can be caused by spinal stenosis, herniated disks and whatnot. A LOT of people probably wind up with spine surgury that fixes nothing.

What is the first logical explanation you have heard? I must have missed that one. Or is that in reference to your issue.

PS: I love you description of the sweet but ugly assistant! :-) My main concern is not their looks but do they have skinny fingers.

I have this at the moment. I've asked friends and a Docter about this and they have never heard of this.
