Getting Frequent Bladder Infections. Ultrasound Clear. Need To Be Examined By Gastrologist?

I am a 42 year old female and have never had a bacteria infection until recently. I had one last year on my pap test and again this year. I keep getting bladder infections but I believe it is due to the ba. I had a ultrasound done of my bladder and all was normal. My family practioner seems to be unconcerned. She advised me against getting another pap test this year. I have been cheched for every form of VD and had a blood analist. Everything is fine. I am worried because this has been going on for over a year. I have had 10 bladder infections in 2 years. I believe I need be examined by a gastrologist. I even sent my spouse to get examined to make sure it had nothing to do with him. I have an appointment with the gynocologist this month.

urinary(bladder) infections are of no concern to a gastroenterologist.
firstly maintain hygeine.
while washing your peri anal region just wash /clean it from back to back and take care not to allow stool content to touch ur vaginal/ urethral region.
secondly check whether u have any constipation issues.
usg will generally pick up a stone in the renal or bladder./ureter.
if u r sexually active just wash the perineal area neatly after making love.
follow these instructions and diagnose urinary tract infection with a urine examination.sometimes there can be asymptomatic bacteriuria also.dont worry .
follow the instructions.have a cue get done.
