I understand why a hot bath does...

Post by texas2006 »

I urinate almost seconds after entering a hot bath. It makes sense, the muscles relax. But here's the question: Why would I involuntarily urinate when I get into a pool where the water is cold?

CPPS sucks!

Hi Texas, I get the same thing when I go for a hot shower and it does happen when I go for a swim. I think just being immersed in water seems to have a relaxing effect.
Age 43: Onset June 2005, Initially: perineal pain, discomfort in penis, very sensitive, sometimes burning. Red around the urethra on penis. Increased urination during night, problems with stream, sometimes constant urge to urinate. Exercise and moving around and laying down helps. Sitting down and squatting makes it worse. Improved to about 85-95%. Symptoms usually mild pain near belly button and slight urge to urinate.
