Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was diagnosed today with a bladder infection. A urine specimen revealed bacteria and blood. Dr. prescribed Bactrim for 5 days. But, this evening I am experiencing a back ache and I think I feel aches in my left kidney. I also have pressure and am urinating constantly.
Hi, I have gone through your query.I suggest the following: 1-A complete urine examination. 2-Culture & sensitivity of urine. 3- USG of the KUB region.Drink plenty of fluids.In the meantime you can take Tab Nitrofurantin 100mg twice a day x 10 days.Proper treatment to start after viewing the reports.
