Difficulty urinating is the first symptom noticed by a person who has BPH.A burning sensation during urination is most consistent with urinary tract infection (UTI).A throbbing sensation in the groin is a nonspecific complaint that could indicate different underlying issues; the nurse should ask the patient additional questions to determine more data.Bubbly or foamy urine may indicate the presence of protein in the urine.
