Can nerve compression in the cervical and lumbar spine cause frequent urination?

Compression of nerves by the cervical spine does not usually cause frequent urination, while the lumbar spine has the potential to cause frequent urination if it presses on the nerve roots. Due to the herniated cervical disc long time compression of the neck peripheral nerves and tissues, often appear as hand numbness, cervical spine pain. Lumbar disc herniation due to partial or complete rupture of the annulus fibrosus, the nucleus pulposus protrudes to stimulate or compress the surrounding nerve tissues, appearing as lumbar pain, lower limb numbness, pain and so on. If it protrudes backward and compresses the nerve root or cauda equina, dysfunction may occur, such as frequent urination and urgency. There may be other reasons for frequent urination, so it is recommended to go to the hospital in time, improve the examination, clarify the cause of the disease, and carry out standardized treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
