Avatar n tn I was recently diagnosed with a kidney infection, my right flank pain is still present and I still have spouts of feeling ill after taking 3 doses of my perscribed Anti-biotic (ciprofloxacin). My doctor told me that I should feel better within 24 hours so I was wondering if this is normal or if it is something I should be conserned about. How long after taking medication will my pain go away?

Avatar f tn Hello, I was diagnosed with a kidney infection 4 weeks ago (left side) note i did not have any UTI infection symptoms that may have caused the kidney infection Two things what stick to me that may have caused this - over exercising the previous two weeks and i also lifted something heavy in the gym which i pulled my lower back muscle on.
Avatar n tn I have had a kidney stone and infection in the past. For the last two weeks I have had rt side back/flank tenderness and intermittent pain below ribs and in groin area. I went to the physician's assistant since my MD was out of town and she just told me to drink more water. I have been hydrating. I have waves of fatigue and nausea (not severe) and have been lethargic this entire time. I am concerned that I am not passing what I am consuming.
Avatar f tn Hi everyone, I am currently suffering from some kidney infection symptoms. I recently had a UTI and was put on two different antibiotics one of them being ciprofloxacin. I have still been experiencing some symptoms of the UTI (they aren't as bad as before) such as a slight burning while I pee and an urge to urinate.
Avatar m tn Quinolone antibiotics may rarely cause tendon inflammation (tendinitis) and tendon rupture. People aged over 60, people who have had a kidney, heart, or lung transplant and those taking corticosteroid medication are most at risk of this. You should stop taking this medicine immediately if you experience any pain or inflammation in your joints during treatment. Rest the affected limb(s) and consult a doctor immediately.

Avatar m tn Its gradually got worse and after a few weeks, i had alot of pressure around my bladder and the pressure and pain builds when my bladder is full and goes away with urination. Sometimes i also get a throbbing/shooting pain in the kidney/lower back area and around the pelvis. I went to the doctors a month ago, thinking it would be a urinary tract infection, was pescribed ciprofloxacin for 10 days, no improvement. Urine test results come back= no infection.
Avatar f tn They took blood and urine samples and diagnosed a kidney infection, despite the fact I had not had kidney pain - although some slight genital ache and need to urinate urgently. Prescribed 10 day Ciprofloxacin antibiotics which I finished. Mild ache in kidneys only started once I started taking the antibiotics. Doctor took another urine sample after I'd finished the course and told me the infection was gone.

Avatar m tn stronger after the ejactulation. I went back to the GUM clinic and they gave me water infection tablets, not knowing if I had a water infection or anything as I don't have any change in timing for the loo or how many times. Can anyone shed some light on this? and what I should do next?
Avatar n tn Hi, I have been diagnosed with several unobstructive kidney stones on my left side. I have no fever...I went to the er and a ct scan showed a 3 cm cyst on my left ovary in addition to revealing the stones (right kidney). I am bloated and aching, and my back and entire abdomen hurts. It's been over a week and half...I am on an antibiotic as well as percocet as it is the only drug that takes the edge off. My question is, how much longer will it take for the stones to pass?

Avatar m tn Resently Doctor decided to take Urine test and found bladder infection and gave me CIPRO as an antibiotic. I feel rush under my ribs and pain in the back (right side). Do you think that this infection can cause that? I am still taking this CIPRO things and hope that this'll help. Do you know if lymph nodes can case pain or infection could go up from bladder and affect other areas? Please help!
Avatar n tn I went to doctor and it looks that infection is the primary reason. My W.B.C count is now decreasing and the blood is gone too. I am on Ciprofloxacin. Drinking lot of water. By the way, culture did not grow any bacteria but my W.B.C was too high on the first day of urine examination. I have a question, After 7 days of 250mg Cipro, do you think this will totally go away? I just don't want to risk my Kindney. Will culture help when the bacterial count is low.
Avatar n tn Visited primary care physician today, she took urine test and said there was lot of blood in urine and thought might be a kidney stone and told me to do x-ray and after that she said there is no kidney stone she said me to drink plenty of water and prescribed me ciprofloxacin hcl 500mg and told me come back after 2 weeks
1413519 tn?1281818201 You need to call his doctor. Homatropine is used to dilate his eyes. He is getting an antibiotic (ciprofloxacin) and an anti-inflammatory medication (prednisolone acetate, a steroid). You are incorrect about the pupil still being so large and that implies that the prognosis will not be good. Pupils are dilated when there in inflammation inside his eye. Dr. O.
2186829 tn?1338008168 He also suggested i get an ultrasound to test for testicular cancer with came back negative, but he noticed a shadow which could have been a kidney stone. So I went for a CT scan because I developed some back pain and frequent urination, but the results said there was no stones. So I went home and masterbated the same day as the CT scan, and nothing came out and now I have the pain in my right testicle again and I am scared to death.
Avatar n tn and they look at a urine sample and the only thing they saw was blood in my urine. I was diagnosed with a UTI and I was ciprofloxacin 500mg twice per day. I was instructed to return if not better in 3 to 4 days. By Tuesday night I was really not feeling well and was having a lot of pain, I was beginning to wonder if maybe it was a kidney stone not a UTI. I went to bed and woke-up around 3:00 am in a lot of pain. I decided that it must be a kidney stone, I went to the ER.
Avatar n tn just went to doctor again dr. said i it is a skin infection. i am on ciprofloxacin 500 mg. he said could be because of low immune. that is me. im done . it will take six month to test positive without a doubt. i have never been sick before. it hiv, period.
Avatar n tn t feel right and I suggested a kidney infection as I had started having some back pain. My doctor checked my urinalysis (which I did take after the 2nd round of cipro, and they also did a culture) and said she found sodium urate crystals in my urine. Her suggestion was to decrease my protein and alcohol intake (I'm an extremely healthy 29 yr old female), and to start drinking cherry juice on a daily basis to flush out the sodium urate crystals.
