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.
I am a 56 yr old female, last week after my husband and I had sex I feel like l have a UTI. Hurts when I pee, don t feel like I completely empty and have to go more frequently. I told him at the time something hurt. Aftward there was light bleeding for two days. Should I see my regular physician or give it more time.
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Based on the history, it appears that you could have had urethral tear during intercourse, which might have exaggerated with inflammation leading to symptoms of urinary tract infection. Kindly wait for 2 to 3 days by taking more of citrus fruit juices and plenty of fluids, so that it would help to keep the urine alkaline. Also, abstain from sexual activities at least for a week. If the symptoms persist beyond 3 days or gets worsened, you need to get the following investigations done promptly. 1. Urine routine examination. 2. Urine for culture and sensitivity. Kindly consult Urologist with the report for clinical evaluation and appropriate management. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best. Regards, Dr.Ashakiran.S., MBBS., MD.
