Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son s girlfriend is 21 she has not been able to urinate since last night approx 8:45 pm except for dribble, in a lot of pain, no fever, vomiting everything she attempts to eat which is only crackers and liquids, she thinks she has a UTI but could it be kidney stones and should she go to the ER ?
Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can. This may be sign of urinary stones and if these stones are small then it should not be treated aggresively since in most cases it passes spontaneously and dissapear with urination. You should just drink plenty of fluids and raspberry tea to promote urination. If you notice fever, blood in urine or pain, you should see urologist and then some invasive procedures may be considered. Other possible causes include uroinfection and bladder polyps. I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time. Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
