A member asked:

Every time i pee in a cup i notice a white stringy stuff in my urine i would like to know what is that?

Mucous : It's likely mucous, but it should not normally be there. Presuming you're peeing in a cup for a urine test, ask your doctor what the results are. If you're not already, ask your doctor if referral to a urologist is appropriate. Hope this helps!

A member asked:

Hi Doctor, I have a problem every-time at night I go frequently to the bathroom to pee. Either I over-produce urine at night or I just can't empty it. I go to the bathroom more than five time and when I try to sleep I can't because I want to go pee.

My baby is 3 months old and he cried for almost 20mins today after peeing is it a sign of urine infection? He is not crying for every pee, but once in a while this happens. But it was not for this long time
