What Causes Food Allergies And Eczema With History Of Having UTI?
I have had approximately ten UTIs in the past six years, I have food allergies, eczema and otherallergies, I am not on medication for these problems as a rule, I do not drink and have never smoked. I would like to know whether there is a corelation between allergies and UTIs and therefore kidney disease? Thanks for your time and a consideration of this question.Please do not include my email on your public page.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There is not likely a link between the allergies and the urinary tract infections.
The frequent UTI would be linked to any damage to the kidneys. Ultrasound or other imaging to take a look at the kidneys and other areas of the urinary tract would determine if there is a structural reason for the infections i.e if there is any abnormal structure that can be linked to the infections
I hope this helps
