What Does High Fever Along With Painful Urination Indicate?
White Male Age 60. Had and illness last week that PHP could not diagnose. Suggested I see a urologist. Wanted to do that, however I live in Florida and it was impossible to find a urologist after Hurricane Irma. Symptoms- High fever (102+), painful urination, decreased urine output, no discoloration in urine however urinalysis indicated trace of blood but no infection. Condition persisted for 4 days and symptoms would intensify/detensify over the course of a day with no set pattern. Ideas.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
These symptoms are suggestive of uroinfection and this is common in your age and usually is manifested with pain during urination, fever and changes in urination frequency. Also, blood traces may be present in urine which can have odour or colour change. Other common cause are urinary stones. Diagnosis is established by doing urine analysis and urinoculture and after this antibiotic treatment may be started if necessary. If there is negative urine analysis then you should do ultrasound of kidneys to check for stones. You should drink plenty of fluids and take raspberry tea or juice to promote urination.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
