Hello Sara and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i can fully understand your concern.
S.P.C., can be irritating and usually,not a focus of infection.
You've not mentioned details like, your age,indication for S.P.C.,and what medications you're taking presently.You must take full course of antibiotics.
Bladder muscle relaxants, and anti-spasmodics, are available, which help majority of people on SPC. If you send details of your treatment to me, as a direct question, i can advise regarding you on further management.
