Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi I am almost 60 years old...I think I have a UTI...here are my symptoms: very frequent sensation to urine, very gassy, lower bladder pain, lower back pain, when I urine it hurts I have tried over the counter meds for UTi and drinking cranberry juice and water....nothing is working
Increased frequency of urination, lower abdominal pain, and pain during urination can be due to urinary tract infection (UTI). I suggest you get a urine routine and urine culture with sensitivity.
I addition, I suggest you consult a urologist and get a pelvic ultrasound and serum level of prostatic specific antigen (PSA).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
