I've got a urinary tract infection.......?!


Question:

I've got a urinary tract infection.......?

The doctor gave me antibiotics which have helped a lot, but my lower back is still aching. Is this to do with the infection or cud it be something else?


Answers:

My daughter is in the hospital right now, because her first urinary tract infection didn't completely clear up with antibiotics, and the infection moved into her kidneys as well.

She has been on push fluids (9 bags in the first 9 hours) since her admittance, along with a really strong broad spectrum antibiotic.

Go to see your doctor again. Explain that you feel like the infection wasn't completely cured with the first round of antibiotics, and you'd like to find out why your back is still hurting. A short urine and blood test is all it will take to find out if you still have an infection.
