My Daughter Has Urinary Tract Infection With Constipation

Hi, My daughter has recurring urinary infections. This is often associated with constipation . Furthermore, she will then proceed to develop an episode where her mental health deteriorates and she requires hospitalization. She is 28 and suffers with bi polar disorder. This seems to be an alarming recurring nightmare for her (and us). What can you suggest that will help?

Thanks for using Health Care magic.

Get Urine Culture and Sensivity done. According to sensitivity, antibiotics can be given for cure. Antibiotics should be given for proper dose for approriate time. Bipolar disorder also has to be treated. Consult a urologist and a psychiatrist for her problems. To stop recurrent urinary infection-Keep the private parts clean(shaved), sit in a tub with warm water for 5 mins daily, put liner inside nicker, wash after urination.
