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.
After having TURP surgery January 9, this year, my husband has had a low grade fever for two weeks. He developed a high fever went to ER Jan 15, had a UTI. Rx him 10 days of Ceflex. Got better but never completely ceased. Has 100.3 now. He is always better in the morning, and fever comes back at night.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Rise of temperature in evening is very bad. In tuberculosis, it's the main symptom. if he is having genital tuberculosis or any infection then usually he will have these kinds of symptoms.
So, kindly get his urine test done and if there is any infection ask for culture and sensitivity. According to the report, we can change antibiotics and treat him well. Hope you come to us with reports for treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Archana
