HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Because the bladder and bowel are closely related, there can sometimes be symptoms related to the bowel when a bladder infection is present.
These symptoms should resolve as the infection in the bladder resolves. A course of antibiotics would be needed.
Additional treatment would involve use of fluids to clear the urinary tract and also cranberry products.
Cranberry has been shown to be helpful for some persons.
I hope this helps
