Inability to Urinate Overview. When you cannot empty your bladder completely, or at all, despite an urge to urinate, you have urinary retention. To understand how urinary retention occurs, it is important to understand the basics of how urine is stored in and released from the body.
People who have incomplete emptying of the bladder may have urinary frequency or urinary incontinence. If the person can urinate, doctors measure the amount of urine left in the bladder after the person urinates. Doctors use a catheter to remove urine from the bladder and then treat the cause.
