Suggest Treatment For Pain In Lower Abdomen And Frequent Stools

My girlfriend has been going to the bathroom every 5 minutes. It just recently started a few hours ago not all day. She has a pain in her lower abdomen. She also says when she goes to pee not much comes out yet she feels like she has to. When I first noticed it she was holding her bladder for a while while we looked for a bathroom. After that it s been every 5 minutes. What could be the problems?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM
I read your query carefully.
As per details it seems to be Urinary Tract Infection.
The most common cause of UTI is unhygienic conditions.

If I will be your treating doctor I would Advise you to;
1- Do not use public washrooms.
2- Maintain your proper hygiene.
3- Drink alot of water.
4- Complete your antibiotic course. Like Ciprofloxacin 500mg twice a day for 7 days.
5- Take urine Alklynizers like citro soda or cran max sachet in one glass water twice a day.
6- Take simple painkillers like Acetaminophen 1000mg twice a day after meal in case of pain.
If condition remains the same I would suggest you to visit hospital.

Hope so it will be helpful.
You can write again in case of any query.
Wish you Good health.
Regards
I find this answer helpful
