I Am Experiencing Pressure In My Bladder, Particularly When Standing,

Probably cystitis, follow the advice below.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I understand your concern.
The most common cause of bladder pressure is urinary tract infection or cystitis.
I recommend to do a complete blood count and a urine test to confirm the diagnosis.
Meanwhile, I suggest to continue using AZO for temporary relief three tablets a day.
I also recommend to drink liquids and especially cranberry juice.
If the diagnosis is confirmed I suggest to take prescription antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacine 500 mg twice a day.
This medication is taken for five days on prescription.
You should consult your doctor before taking it.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.


Follow up consultation
Detailed Answer:
Hi again dear,
If the leukocytes are positive in the urine test the treatment consists of antibiotics.
Antibiotics' prescriptions are beyond the scope of online medical consultation.
In my daily practice, I suggest using Ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice a day for five days.
Please consult your doctor about the prescription.
Hope my answer was helpful.
Take care,
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
