Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I think your husband is suffering a urinary tract infection maybe as a result of intervent. We use trimetoprim sulfometoxasole in our clinic for simple UTI. If he is taking other type of antibiotics given by doctors for preventing infection at operation site , don't take anything. He can take anti inflammatory drugs such ibuprofen to relieve pain.

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