What Causes A Strong Odour During Urination?

I am 71 years old man with diabete 2/ stage 3 kidney 36% / high blood pressure / heart surgery 5 yrs ago / constant seizures/ and my doctor said that I need to take 50 mg vigra to see what is my issue, because when I urinate it has a strong odor. Is this a good thing?

Hello,

The strong odor during urination with diabetes, indicates underlying urinary infection from various reasons.

I do not agree with the intake of such medicines to check this issue, instead urine culture is strongly recommended.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
