A member asked:
I have a bad cold and a feel like i'm needing to go to the bathroom more. is this common? not concerned, just curious!

Common cold: Hi Keith, if you mean that you have a runny nose and cough it would not usually be related to having to go to the bathroom more to pass urine/water. However some viruses which cause colds can make you have loose bowel motions and have more frequent poos. Also if you are drinking more then because you have a cold this could mean you will need to wee more.
