What Is The Cause For Pain While I Urinate When On Antibiotics For UTI?

So let me start by saying on the 16th I felt like I had pulled my back out real sharp pain just above my kidney on the right side. The next day it was fine (put a heating pad on it for the night) then on that Saturday and Sunday, I was using the bathroom a lot (but not really going a lot) and I really did not drink a lot of fluids...and going to the bathroom hurt, as in burning and stinging. So Tuesday I called my gynecologist and told them I thought I had a UTI, so they had me come in, take a urine test, they said yes I did, but also sent my urine to the lab because the urine looked "funky" as the nurse called it. The doctor prescribed antibiotics and I took those twice a day for three days...it did not stop the burning...it still burns and I told them...so now they want me to come in...because they have informed me, that I had a very low grade UTI (???)..I am absolutely petrified what they will tell me because I have never had anything like this..I do have a discharge. But not really bad and the odor not a strong one for me to notice so I want to say no odor. My vagina is sore, very sore and I am itchy but not like it was.. I noticed that I was feeling warmer than usual so I have been taking my temperature - which has been running at 99.5..I do take ibuprofen to keep it down, plus to help with my pain when I urinate...may I ask what your opinion is on what you think it could be..I almost thought kidney infection, but I think they would have told me that through my urinalysis...and if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

hello,
thanks for your question,

actually you are suffering from UTI. take antibiotic ofloxacin 250 mg for 5 days after meal for infection and irritation and burning.

take paracetamol for fever .

drink lots of water

drink 5 tablespoon of milk with one glass plain soda for 5 days will flush out waste products in kidney and you will get relief from burning.

Eat a lot of foods that contain vitamin C to treat a urinary tract infection. Eat citrus fruits like oranges and grapefruit, drink cranberry juice or take an over-the-counter vitamin C supplement daily. The acidity in the vitamin helps remove built-up bacteria in your urinary tract that causes infection.

Change clothes regularly.
It might be customary to wear the same clothes a few days in a row when you camp, but make sure you change your underwear regularly when you have a urinary tract infection. Clean underwear can easily be stashed in a resealable plastic bag and will help prevent infections caused by bacteria.

Avoid caffeinated beverages when you're treating a urinary tract infection in the wilderness. These can dehydrate you, which will prevent the infection from clearing up. Caffeine is a diuretic, which will cause you to have to urinate more frequently and increase the urgency to urinate caused by the infection.

Use a heating pad. Apply a warm heating pad to your abdomen to ease bladder discomfort.

Stop using irritating feminine products. Douches, deodorant sprays and powders can all irritate your urinary tract.

Take a shower instead of a bath. Sitting in a tub filled with bubbles or with excessive soap or shampoo suds can wash away your urethra's protective mucus layer and invite infection.

i think these information will help you.

thanks
