Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
hello,

You're suffering from recurrent Urinary tract infection.
This may be because of post voiding residual urine due neurogenic bladder cause by paraplegia.
The residual urine in the bladder acts as a good culture media for the bacterias.
So voluntary voiding of urine at regular intervals will prevent UTI's.
Regarding cough and nasal stuffiness, this may be due to viral infection.
