What Causes Pain And Burning During Urination?
Hi so I went to my doctor last Wednesday after having experienced pain and burning when urinating. He told a pee sample and ruled I had an infection. Not sure if bladder or not. I have been in antibiotics since Wednesday and bit feeling better. Still pain in urethra area and sometimes rectal as well. Should I go back or wait until seven days when antibiotics done ?

Hi,
You need to wait for ten days to get antibiotics work to kill the organism completely. You need to drink lots of water. Don't take excess spicy foods.
Take a cranberry juice extract tablet for seven days. If no improvement after week than urine culture and usg abdomen can be planned.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
