A member asked:

My husband is suffering from poor urine flow. what could be the cause and does he need to see a doctor or a specialist?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Best is to see a Urologist. It could be caused by many things and cant be diagnosed without being seen. In the meantime make sure he is not constipated and is drinking some water.

There could be a blockage, so it is best to see a urologist now to avoid more problems. Enlarged prostate gland, or medications could be the problem.
