antibiotics cause kidney infection

your body is probably immune to the antibiotics,hense why they aint working ,plus some antibiotics do cause other infections,as your doctor to further tests to rule out kidnet stones ect.

ve always been perfectly healthy but ended up with one in each pregnancy. UTIs are very common in pregnancy and cause kidney infections when left untreated. With my first it came on so fast I thought I was having premature labor.

hi vicki, i suffer with chronic kidney disease and i think you still have a kidney infection by the sounds of your symptons and the swelling of your ankles may well have something to do with your kidneys as i myself get swollen ankles when i have a kidney infection the specialist can tell you more as everyone differs hope i was of some use gud luck linzi!!!

A UTI is nothing to play around with. Left untreated it can travel to the kidneys and cause a kidney infection that can be dangerous to both you and your child. Amoxicillin is one of the most widely prescribed antibiotics during pregnancy and has not been shown to cause any harm to a human fetus. Take the medication to clear up the infection, the last thing you want is for it to get worse.

It is a kidney infection. I've been given antibiotics and sent hone.

If a culture is done, a test will be done to determine what the cause of the infection is and which med is best to treat such infection. Sorry to sound repetitious! :( Good luck with t he ultrasound!!

Uti is something that needs antibiotics to cure and if it goes untreated then can develop into a kidney problem which in some cases can cause early labour. Much safer to take the meds. I've been on the same antibiotics twice during this pregnancy and am now 36+ weeks and baby is perfectly healthy.

I am prone to kidney infections too. Most likely the antibiotics are breaking up the infection that was in the kidney....the pain you feel it the kidney healing it self abf exiting the infection! If you still have the pain after you have finished your Meds contact your doctor! Also push lots and lots of water!

it sounds like a water infection you need to go to the doctors for treatment before it gets worse and causes a bad infection in the kidneys,make sure you are drinking alot of fluids to it helps to flush it away

I went to urgent care the other day because I was having really bad pain in my low back and could barely walk. The doctor said I had a Kidney infection and prescribed me antibiotics. My question is I have been taking them for 3 days now twice a day and been drinking lots of water, but my pain is still there it hasnt went away. Also when I woke up this morning I went pee and my right side hurt really bad for atleast 10 mins.

Recurrent urine infections could be due to various reasons. Most common cause is stones in kidney which is blocking urine pathway. Other causes are changing sexual partners frequently, pregnancy, diabetes and of course childhood infections. The urine can also be due to retention of urine anywhere in its flow due t obstruction. The obstruction can be due to abnormality of structures since birth, stones or diseases like tumors(unlikely). Females are more prone to urine infections.

Antibiotics for UTIs and kidney infections are often the same ones, so hopefully if it is a kidney infection it clears it up too. I've had a kidney infection before and it was terrible pain :/ Hope you get sorted out and feel better soon!

You need antibiotics. Your rememdies only help to limit uti not cure it.

Hi, my best friend suffered from a really bad kidney infection that landed her in the hospital this past Thanksgiving. She was in ICU for 3 days with severe vomiting and high fever (103.0). She now keeps getting kidney infections over and over. Know though she recognizes the signs before it gets too bad. What should she be asking the doctor? I want to help her be more proactive in her treatment. Her doctor said that she just needs to rest and drink fluids and take meds for pain.

Then i read in many Forums the women had misscarrigaes because they were afraid taking any medicine and the infection continued and got to the baby which caused the misscarriage. So i took now twice in 2 weeks antibiotics cause first time my urin/bledder infection wasnt treated well. I saw yesterday on ultrasound rhythm heartbeat and child movements i am in my 10. Pregnancy week with e child. So i trust the medicine will help us more then harm.

a uti is just a bladder infection. an upper kidney infection is just a upper urinary tract infection. upper kidney infection is known as pyelonephritis. it comes with abdominal pain going from the back to whichever side is affected. there is some tenderness of the bladder area and on the side of the kidney that hurts. it acute cases it can cause nausea and vomiting. you can look it up to find out more. i had an uncomplicated uti and i was given antibiotics and it was gone within a week.

s from what our Urologists have told us is because of likely biofilm infection deep inside kidney stones which are produced by those who have MSK (Medullary Sponge Kidney) on an ongoing basis? The stones are a by-product of MSK and are deep within the medullary and take a long time (if ever) to pass out. The antibiotics taken seem to rid the UTI for awhile only for them to come back continuosly.

Yes, my Dr gave me antibiotics for uti...I have had 2 so far during my pregnancy...yuck!

I never had a kidney infection but at 29 weeks I had kidney stones that caused my urine to be pure blood and contractions that required magnesium to stop. I would go in just in case.

I had a bladder and kidney infection in December, they gave me an iv of fluids and strong antibiotics then sent me home with 2000mg of keflex a day. Kidney infections can become worse quickly.

coli infection i am always on antibitotics cause the infection seems to come back are these uti kidneys infections caused By e.coli can any one give advice ??????????

Around 3 weeks ago I had a really bad bladder/ kidney infection and took antibiotics for 5 or 7 days and 3 days ago I noticed I have swollen tender lympnodes in the right side of my neck. Also I suffer from anxiety and some hypocondria I tend to rub them and check on them alot could the constant rubbing cause them to hurt more or grow more? And my minds pretty much set on cancer. I'm scared. Also does anyone know what can help the tenderness and help it go down?
