What Do Burning Sensations And Bleeding While Urinating Indicate During Menopause?
Question: I am post menapausal, with burning,& bleeding when I urinate
Brief Answer:
Urine infection likely.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
It looks like you are suffering from a urinary tract infection which is quite common considering your age.
I would advice you to do the following
1. Seek medical attention as soon as possible for a urine routine and culture along with complete blood count and an ultrasound scan of the renal system.
2. You will have to be put on antibiotics. Most commonly a Fluoroquinolone like Tab Levofloxacin for 14 days followed by a repeat urine routine.
3. If the urine grows an organism the antibiotic can be changed to what that organism is sensitive to.
4. Drink plenty of water.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
