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 have had urinary track infections before, and it seems like that but worse I feel like I have to urinate but only a few drops come out and it hurts really bad. I ve taken cranberry concentrate pills and am drinking cranberry juice. So far it s not getting better it just started this morning
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Based on the description it appears that you need to be evaluated for difficulty in passing urine. Kindly get the following tests done. 1. Urea and creatinine level in serum. 2. Urine routine examination. 3. Urine culture and sensitivity. 4. Ultrasound scan of abdomen to know the status of kidneys and urinary tract. Kindly consult Urologist with the report for clinical evaluation and management. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
