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.
Hello, I am 23 and have reoccurring symptoms of UTI but not bacteria shown on cultures. For last 12 hrs I have had moderate quantities of blood in urine. I have taken phenazopyridine hcl and macrobid 100 mg (one pill only). I dont have symptoms due to phenazopyridine but blood quantity has been increasing. Should I go to emergency or wait until tomorrow morning to see a doctor? Thanks

It is better you go to ER immediately as because bleeding is moderate quantity means bleeding is significant.immediate remedial measures will be easier than delaying the same.regarding recurring symptoms you need to take good amounts of liquids like water,fruit juices,maintain personal hygiene as well as hygiene of your toilet and sorroundings. you need to avoid oily,spicy food and to do exercise at least 1/2 hr daily.regarding medication you need to take full course prescribed by physician.otherwise if you take as you want and stop bacterial resistance will develop and your suffering will not reduce i mean recurrences will happen.
