It is not an obligation to burden oneself when relieving oneself

Question:

I am a woman who experience burns when urinating and after urinating. That is because I try my best to bring out the last drop of urine so that I could perform ablution and prayer. Doing this causes me some pain, so what shall I do?

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.

 

Since urine stops by itself, then you are not obliged to burden yourself to bring out some urine which is not existent. So, there is no need to burden yourself to this extent, especially since this causes you some pain. 

Allaah Knows best.
