Have Hernia In Each Groin And Bladder Infection With Sharp Pain In Back. Is Ciprofloxacin Sufficiently Helpful?

Hi my name is Holden im 20 years old. I.just recently went to the doctor about 3 weeks ago, for sharp pain on my right side and back. They told me i have 2 hernias one on each groin. And told me i had a bladder infection and prescribed me ciprofloxacin and a z pack. I finished both and still have the pains, and having irregular bowel movements and pretty much constipation. They told me i need to go to a urologist, but cant afford it till the 1st of the year. What do you think could be happening ?

hi Holden

read your query

i have following suggestions-

a. pain in right side and backache with involvement of bowel- i would place the defect around the spine. now i cannot be there to examine you, but i would certainly suggest a xray of lumbosacral region, and an mri subsequently if something does turn up in the xrays

b. for urine infection, get a urine culture done. taking ciplox may help you. but that is only if the infecting organism is effective on the organism causing the infection. so i recommend a urine culture. it would take 3 days and then u can start antibiotics accordingly.

in case u have a back problem you will need to meet a spinal surgeon or a neurosurgeon at the very least

best of luck
