I have cystitis. I have had it many times before, but have not had it for at least a year now. It happens if I do not urinate after intercourse. Might I have some kind of kidney issue seeing that I have had this infection so many times? Also is a course of oxytetracycline a suitable antibiotic treatment?
Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!
Cystitis could be a local problem in the bladder or could be coming from the kidney. I would recommend getting a kidney and urinary bladderultrasound to check for any anatomical abnormalities that may be corrected. Cystitis can be caused by abnormality in the the defense mechanisms of the body. I suggest drinking plenty if water to flush away the bacteria. Tetracycline is not a good antibiotic and I usually prescribe ciprofloxacin but you may need a prescription to purchase it.
