Brief Answer:
Recurrent UTI

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to "Ask A Doctor",

I have gone through your query,

It looks like you may be having recurrent UTI which needs to be treated with broad spectrum antibiotics. I would suggest you to do a urine culture and sensitivity test in-order to look for the sensitivity to antibiotics. Your doctor can prescribe you antibiotics based on the test report. Also it would be better for you to avoid drinking beers meanwhile and instead drink plenty of water approx. 2L.

I hope this helps,

Let me know if I can assist you any further,
Regards

Detailed Answer:
Hi again,
Thanks for writing back,

By "poor digestion" does it mean that you do not have an appetite or your bowel movements are irregular? Do you have any symptoms like heartburn, gastric regurgitation etc?

You may notice poor digestion when you have an ongoing infection in your body. Nothing to worry about it. It should resolve once you are cured.

I hope this helps,
Regards

For proper digestion and regular bowel movements, do the following:

- Drink plenty of warm water, especially a glass of warm water after waking up. This helps in easy bowel movements.
- Can include honey or lemon which helps in faster digestion and metabolism.
- eat more of fruits and vegetables.
- Include more of yoghurt, this also acts as an probiotic which is good for the gut.
