Taking Antibiotics For Uti, Bruises On Upper Abdomen, Painful. How To Get Cured?
Just got done taking antibiotics for a uti. Now I noticed two little bruises on my upper abdomen one on right and one on left in the exact same spots. I did have abdominal pain when I had the uti and I remember pressing my belly sometimes. Could this have caused bruising or could it be something else?

Hi,
The bruising you are having in your abdomen could be related to pressing to your belly while having abdominal pain.
If the bruising will go away in an one month time, I'd suggest to consult your physician for further evaluation.
Meanwhile, I'd suggest to apply cold compresses on the affected area if the bruises did show up in a couple of days time.
All the best!
