Bladder Problems

Hi,
Can anyone help me??
I've noticed a pattern recently every time I end up having a drink that I need keep using the toilet. I know this can be pretty normal after you had one or more a few drinks in the day but I find even having a small glass of water or something I have to use the toilet straight away.
I know in the past I've had these problems before and been to seen a professional about it. However, all they told me was I may have a weak bladder, only I've been told it could be a urine infection. I'm not sure what to believe.
Do you think it's a good idea to go back to my doctor or should I just leave it??
Thank you.

There's some more info about urine infections on the NHS website here: http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Urinary-tract-infection-adults/Pages/Introduction.aspx
It says..
Another option for you would be to call 111 - you can speak to a nurse who will be able to advise you
Let us know how you're doing.
Hope you're feeling better x
@Jo7 I do think your right by going to see the doctor about this just in case there's anything I dont know or the problem that I had with having either a urine infection or weak bladder has come back.
I have not noticed anything unsual apart from having to go to the toilet too often every time I just have a small drink. I'm not experiencing any pain or discomfort when going to the toilet but it's just having to go there too often is the problem.
The last thing I want is to get dehydrated so that's why I drink little and often not to.
I don't think Im experiencing anything else.
It's starting to show to the people around me asking why I'm using the toilet so much or why do I keep flushing. I don't know what to do.
@K-Dwagg yh I'm ok now thanks. Not trying to drink little and often much anymore but it's like having a small drink makes go to the toilet.
I dont know if things have improved yet but people are starting to notice that I keep using the toilet and I have to keep flushing.
I dont know what to do
It's really good to know that I'm not on my own and you understand where I'm coming from so thank you so much.
I think I might have to see the doctor about this as its getting noticeable and need help. I dont know if it could be a urine infection or weak bladder bit not experiencing any symptoms.
I'm glad you have managed to get that sorted out with you.
