Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
You seem to be having urinary tract infection which is also present in the urinary bladder (cystitis).
The urinary bladder wall should measure up to 3 mm. In your report it is 4 mm, which means there is slight infection. The remaining urine after voiding is 170 cc which is an indirect sign of urinary infection.
Next steps recommended for you:
1. Visit doctor and get urine culture and sensitivity test done.
2. Drink enough water and fluids and visit washroom regularly.
3. Maintain genital hygiene.
4. Take antibiotics depending on urine culture and sensitivity report and complete course of medications.
5. If you have severe lower abdominal pain then taking an anti spasmodic medication may help.
Hope this helps
