Have I got Cystitis?

athina_2

Since the weekend (me & my boyfriend had sex on Friday & I was a bit too dry so we stopped), whenever I go to the toilet, I feel like my bladder is still really full for about 15 minutes afterwards even though nothing comes out. There is no pain and I only get the bladder full feeling just after I have tried to go for a wee.

I did some reading and I wasn't sure if it was cystitis or a bladder infection. Are either treatable over the counter?

Does it sound like I have neither?!

We're not allowed to give medical advice here. I'd say go along to the pharmacist and ask them (some have a private consultation room, so you wouldn't have to explain all that while in a shop full of people!) or phone the doctor. They should be able to advise you.
