Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can Lower Abdominal Pain Be A Sign Of Urine Infection?
I am having lower abdominal pain, right above the pubic bone, almost like cramping. When I urinate the pain seems to ease. I am 42, 5"3" tall and weigh 205. I am also diabetic. Just trying to determine if this might be a sign of infection that I should follow up with my doctor.
HI. Since you are diabetic and have this problem, you should consult a Doctor for clinical examination investigations and treatment according to the findings.
I would advise: Send samples before an antibiotic is started . Blood -complete blood picture. Urine- routine, microscopy, culture and sensitivity. Ultrasonography of abdomen.
Start the roper treatment for diabetes and the infection. You will be fine. take an antibiotic course of 7 to 21 days.
