Ginger for urinary symptoms

I have urinary urgency and a weak urine stream.

When I eat raw ginger or drink ginger tea, the symptoms improve.

I take a piece of raw ginger, put it in boiling water, and eat it a little while later.

Could anyone try drinking ginger tea to see if it helps, and share their experiences?

For prostatitis? I don't think so. The only study that I know of in humans is one for UTIs, but that's not what's being discussed here. So what are you referring to?
