Suggest Treatment For Sharp Abdominal Cramps

I am a 28-year old married woman. 5'8" and 150 lbs. I noticed a sharp pain lower in the abdomen that menstrual cramps earlier today, and twice today, I have urinated with a dull pain at the end, but more importantly, there has been discharge with blood on the toilet paper, and my urine has a very strong odor. I am on the pill for 12 weeks at a time, and I do not have it now. I've had UTI's in the past, but this seems different. I plan on seeing my Ob/gyn on Monday if symptoms persist, but I was curious to see what sort of feedback I might get in the meantime...

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Apart from excluding a recurrent UTI by a urine routine, microscopic and culture sensitivity test, if I were your doctor, I would also go for a serum HCG, and an ultrasound abdomen of yours in addition to a general abdominal examination to rule out any chances of a pregnancy or a pelvic inflammatory disease. I would avoid giving you any active treatment excepting for a mild anti spasmodic drug till I rule out a pregnancy.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
