My mother who is 91 has been feeling very unwell today. She has almost completed a course of antibiotics for a uti . Her back is very painful also her arm and legs feeling weak. Her carer has just noticed some blood in her pad. Will I take sample to doc tomorrow and talk to him on phone or should I be seeing about this more urgently? Thanks AAAAAA

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
as she has got severe backache and blood in her pad requires evaluation.
She might have some problem in her genito-urinary tract.
Consult gynaec and get examined physically and with ultra sound.
There is no emergency but Gynaec opinion is a must.
Ok and bye.
