examination helps determine the exact cause of complaints such as frequent urination, pain, blood in the urine, recurrent infections, or other urinary symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-el\">The procedure is short and usually well tolerated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a
