Avatar f tn Has anyone got a urinary tract infection during pregnancy? Was it uncomfortable and a little painful at times? once treated did the uncomfortablness go away? I think I have one I have a drs appt in 4 days is it safe to wait until then?
Avatar n tn You may not even have to bring your dog in for an exam if the urine is positive for a simple urinary tract infection (an infection without crystals). The vet can simply give appropriate antibiotics. If your dog has crystals in his urine, the crystals would need to be identified and treatment instituted. Crystals can be dangerous in male dogs because if they become large enough they can become lodged in the urethra and cause blockage (even in dogs, though more common in male cats).

Avatar n tn Cranberry juice helps fight off urinary tract infections, and sometimes can get rid of one that you already have, but it's best to go to the doctor and get it treated. Then drink cranberry juice to try to prevent bacteria from forming.
4251679 tn?1370305531 UTIs are exactly what their name describes. and infection in your urinary tract. its not in your vagina, however, ive always been told not to have sex while you have one because sex could be the cause of it. and its best to make sure its all better before introducing even more bacteria. Ive never heard of it being contagious, and dont think that it is, but ask your doctor. and ive also never had a cream to use, so im not sure what thats for.
667829 tn?1297978123 I would personally would talk to a doctor or someone right away. People with "diabetes" are more susceptible to urinary tract infections and pregnant women are more likely to have the infection spead to their kidneys. There are antibiotics that you cannot take while pregnant but it is still best to get the opinion of a doctor.
Avatar f tn My doc/midwife just diagnosed me with a urinary tract infection :( and now I'm a little worried about pre-term labor, i guess my question would be has anyone been diagnosed with same thing, if so what was your experience?
Avatar n tn It could be a UTI (as we call them in the U.S.) which is a Urinary Tract Infection. I would recommend seeing a doctor to confirm this but one thing that usually helps with a UTI is drinking lots of Cranberry Juice as well as lots of water. I think I had one before a long time ago and I just drank Cranberry Juice and I was fine but if it's bad enough or keeps hurting, please see a doctor so as not to jeopardize your fertility or your health in general. Take care!
Avatar n tn i had a urinary tract infection less than a month ago and i drank all the cranberry juice in the world to get rid of it. it disappeared a week later. my boyfriend and i have great sex regularly 3-4 times a week and since i had this infection it either takes me a lonngggg time to orgasm or i dont orgasm at all. can my inablity to have great sex be related to my urinary tract infection? and if so, how can i fix it? please help.
Avatar m tn Sounds like a urinary tract infection. Might need to see a physician to get an antibiotic to treat it. Blood is not normal either. Kidney stones might cause similar symptoms too. Keep well hydrated and add the old standard cranverry juice too! Good luck and don't delay too long in seeing a physician. Emergency clinics might be an answer if you don't have a regular family doc.
Avatar f tn It could be a urinary tract infection. This needs to be treated before it turns into a kidney or bladder infection. You can drink more (lots more), use something like Ural which neutralises the urine to stop it burning, drink cranberry juice or cranberry tablets. But if you are getting no relief within a short time of doing these things you probably need to go and see a doctor.
Avatar n tn Hi, welcome to the forum, yes, kidney infection can be related to the pyelonephritis. Urinary tract infection can be due to infection involving any part from kidney to urethra. Infection may be pyelonephritis (involving upper urinary tract), urethritis, uretitis, cystitis (lower urinary tract) etc. Presence of Anatomic abnormalities resulting in obstruction, stasis, or reflux of urinary flow all predisposes towards recurrent urinary infections.
Avatar f tn Hello all, my wife is having 8th week and in urine culture we find urinary tract infection....
Avatar f tn I had a urinary tract infection. Apparently it's very common in pregnant women. I was given a prescription and I'm fine now.
Avatar n tn s urine to see if she has a urinary tract infection. If she has a bad urinary tract infection she will need antibiotics. There are plenty of reliable supplements which can provide adjunct therapy but nothing works as quickly as antibiotics, and since urinary tract infections can be painful I would treat her as soon as you can. Cranberry juice or capsules are a good supplement for the urinary tract as a preventative and adjunct therapy.
Avatar f tn Had a call from my midwife today to let me know the results of my urine test and they show I have a urinary tract infection (UTI). I've had no symptoms but she said I need some antibiotics. Has this happened to anyone else, should I be worried?
Avatar f tn A pain-relieving medication can be obtained over the counter, but it only helps by numbing the urinary tract and does not treat the problem. Not treating the problem would lead to permanent problems affecting your kidneys. Brands here in the US are Azo Standard or pyridium. I do not mean a cranberry remedy, although cranberry pills can be helpful as well. they acidify the urine and cut down on bacteria counts, but don't cure a full-blown infection.
Avatar f tn It sounds like the beginning of a urinary tract infection. They're common when you first start having sex. You'll want to drink lots of water to flush the bacteria out. ALWAYS try to pee both before and after you have sex- otherwise you are putting extra pressure on your bladder (from him rubbing against it). After sex you want to flush any bacteria that are lingering near the opening of your urethra.
Avatar n tn Sex can often push bacteria from around the area into the urethra, causing irritation that could turn into a urinary tract or bladder infection if you're not careful. A good rule of thumb is to urinate before sex, and then again afterward, to help clear the urethra. It wouldn't hurt to also take cranberry supplements and drink more water. But when your urinary tract is irritated, it will feel like a burning, constant "I have to pee" sensation.
Avatar m tn I had been taking d-mannose and cranberry pills (with vitamin c) from GNC for urinary tract support. My understanding is that they flush out bacteria. Would that give me a false negative??
