If the KUB was normal, that indicates the urinary system is o.k.  The burning sensation is not normal.  Return to the Dr. and ask about this problem.  You obviously have some sort of inflammatory process going on that needs to be treated.  Since you now have a history of UTI, include cranberry juice or cranberry juice supplements in your diet to help keep your urinary system healthy and drink plenty of fluids to flush the system well daily.

I had an iud inserted about 4 months ago. I had lots of problems with it. Prolonged bleeding cramping, and just yesterday it fell out!!! The doctors told me that I may have an infection called cervicitis and it may have caused my cervix to open slightly an for the iud to fall out (which I looked up and found out that it can be caused by having an iud) now I am bleeding and I have to wait for it to stop before I can get any cultures taken to find out if I actually do have this infection!!! Now I'm not telling you that the iud isn't a good idea because everyone is different, and for some the iud is a great form of birth control! You should know that they usually will not put one in unless you already have at least one child and are in a mutually monogamous relationship

get a different doctor, this should be resolved with the appropiate antibiotics. A culture and sensitivity test of your urine will tell what antibiotic works.

I agree with above.  There should be a sensitivity to  medications to bacteria that were present in your last sample...presumably your doctor has that information and selected the antibiotic accordingly.  If you continue to have symptoms then you should have a follow-up urinalysis to verify that you are free of an on-going infection.  If you are clear then there is an entity called "interstitial cystitis"  Essentially an inflammatory process where the patient feels like there is an infection but none exists.  There are analgesics effective for the urethra...discuss it with your medical provider.

You really shouldn't still have symptoms if they gave you an antibiotic over a week ago.  If you still are having the symptoms when you're done with the pcn you need to call your dr. and tell him he needs to prescribe you a stronger antibiotic!\n\nThere is no reason why you should be suffering from those symptoms for a month.

same thing happened to me- i put handful of ice cubes in a sock and put it on the swollen areas until it was gone. only took about 2-3 hours. best way to do it is laying down (you could be watching tv) and just rest it on top of swollen part. good luck!

GO TO A HEALTH STORE LIKE HI-HEALTH AND BUY CRANACTIN. MORE POTENT THEN THAN CRANBERRY PILLS AT THE DRUGSTORE. MORE EXPENSIVE, BUT THEY WORK. TRUST ME, IVE HAD THEM SO BAD MANY TIMES AND EVEN BETTER THAN PRESCRIPTION DRUGS IS CRANACTIN. AS SOON AS YOU FEEL IT COMING ON, TAKE 3 PILLS WITH A GLASS OF WATER. WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IS GO PEE AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE TO GET RID OF THE BACTERIA. THE CRANACTIN KEEPS THE BACTERIA FROM STICKING TO THE LINING SO IT CAN BE EXPELLED. DRINK WATER ALL DAY. DO THIS AND IT WILL BE GONE THE NEXT DAY I PROMISE, AND IT WILL NOT COME BACK, YOU KNOW IF IT COMES BACK IF YOU GET IT A FEW DAYS OR A WEEK LATER, BUT ITS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME DOING IT THIS WAY AND NOW WHEN I GET THEM I DONT EVEN WORRY BECAUSE I CAN GET RID OF IT FAST :) TRY IT! BELEIVE ME. IVE SUFFERED THROUGH SO MANY, AND THROUGH KIDNEY INFECTIONS, AND THIS IS THE BEST. NOT SURE ABOUT ALL 'NATURAL MEDICINE' BUT THIS WORKS EXTREMELY WELL.

Hi Kents Crazy\n\nNot sure you can take care of this in one night, but here are some remedies to use.\n\nCaution: Do not attempt to squeeze the lump with your fingers, as this may spread the infection into the bloodstream and can become extremely serious. \n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nNatural Cures\n\nDiet: Eat an organic, whole foods diet that is high in garlic. Avoid all refined sugars, alcohol, and milk and dairy products, as well as any foods to which you may be allergic or sensitive.\n\nHerbs: Use an eye wash made from a fresh and well-filtered infusion of eyebright and goldenseal. Also drink red raspberry tea. \n\nHomeopathy: Useful homeopathic remedies include Pulsatilla, Hepar sulph., Sulfur, and Graphites.\n\nHydrotherapy: Hydrotherapy is the application of water, ice, steam and hot and cold temperatures to maintain and restore health. Treatments include full body immersion, steam baths, saunas, sitz baths, colonic irrigation and the application of hot and/or cold compresses. Hydrotherapy is effective for treating a wide range of conditions and can easily be used in the home as part of a self-care program. Many Naturopathic Physicians, Physical Therapists and Day Spas use Hydrotherapy as part of treatment. I suggest several at-home hydrotherapy treatments. \n\nNutritional Supplementation: Take mycelized vitamin A in therapeautic doses 100,000 IU for the first two days, and then reduce to 50,000 IU the next two days, and then a preventive dose, 5,000 IU for the next week. Also include beta carotene and vitamin C as part of your daily nutritional supplement program.\n\nTopical Treatment: Bathe your eye in a solution of chamomile or red raspberry tea.\n\nAlternative Professional Care\nIf your symptoms persist despite the above measures, seek the help of a qualified health professional. The following professional care therapies have all been shown to be useful for treating sties: Applied Kinesiology, Detoxification Therapy, Light Therapy, Naturopathic Medicine, Reflexology, and Traditional Chinese Medicine.\n\nBest of health to both of you

Try Abreva and if can get a prescription of  Mupirocin Calcium 2%, combine them and in no time it'll heal. I use both every ten minutes and in 2 days and half it's better. Plus don't bite your lip it'll swell like a balloon. Drink lots of fluids and avoid salty foods ans snacks!

I can only find information regarding negative reactions to probiotics affecting kidneys. This obviously doesn't mean that it does not happen, but if this was a common problem, there would be more research and information on it. \nWhen you went to see the doctors, did they agree with you that it was the probiotics that were causing your problems? Did they do other tests to rule out other kidney problems? If your doctor did not help, maybe you could get a second opinion or ask a kidney specialist?\nSorry I couldn't be more helpful.

c-diff is serious and I am not sure how a person has this for 7 months and is still living.  If this is the true diagnosis then the intestines would be pretty well inflamed, to say the least.  \n\nAre you a nursing student looking for help with a care plan?

Do not despair. I had recurrent prostatitis at about the same time you did. I occassionally get it but not nearly as badly as I used to. \n\nHere is what I found out. The antibiotics don't seem to work really well and create another set of problems. You basically upset your system because the antibiotics take a scorched earth approach killing bad bacteria and good bacteria. I noticed two things seem to cure my prostatitis as well as kidney stones. 1) Drastically reduce your intake of meat and fat laden foods in general. Go vegetarian if you can. I did (except for occasional fish). Meat has lots of hormones and other toxic substances. 2) Start drinking soy milk daily. It has a mild form of estrogen which I believe reduces the size of the prostate. What you have is BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia). You need to have a prostate exam on a regular basis and also run everything I have said by a Physician. \n\nAlso eat a little yogurt to restore the natural bacteria in your gut that has been decimated by the antibiotics.\n\nMany times when we have a condition that is annoying and getting worse we assume that it will only continue to get worse. In my case it has drastically improved. I am 52 and the prostatitis started at about your age. If you are married, you might be passing Urinary tract infections back and forth with your wife. Have a doctor check you both.I am not saying don't take the antibiotics but in addition to taking the antibiotics I would try the approach I described. I know it has worked for me. Be sure to stay hydrated by drinking lots of water and one more thing quit drinking lots of sugared sodas. These would cause my condition to flare up.\n\nI believe there is a good chance that your condition will improve.

Cure? .. well maybe not, but I drink this horrible tasting herb, called Uva Ursi. You can buy it in tea form at Whole Foods or hopefully any natural grocery store. Also try setting a ridiculous goal for yourself - like drinking a big glass of water on the hour, every hour. Yeah, having to pee all the time sucks - but so do infections! Did you tell your doctor that the anitbiotics weren't working? You might have a resistant strain of something, maybe they can just prescribe something different for you, without you having to actually go back to their office. \nGood luck....

I don't know why people have to be mean when they answer sometimes.  But I join with the other nice folks in saying, it is something you need to see a doc for.  If you have a urinary tract infection, need antibiotics.  Ditto if you have an STD.  Sometimes a kidney stone can cause a urinary tract infection, too.  But it only gets worse, ignoring it won't help.  We are really lucky nowadays that there is good treatment for this.  Feel better soon.

Sorry to hear that and I know how uncomfortable they can be. My best guesses are: Are you taking antibiotics such as tetracycline? They've been known to cause infections like this. Also, it may be an allergic reaction to your undergarments (I like cotton for this reason) and/or pantyhose. It could be from tight clothing rubbing, feminine hygiene products or perhaps an overly vigorous sex life. The other thing it might be is some sort of imflammation due to an infection such as candidiasis or cervicitis (especially if there's itching). In any case, since you are experiencing these regularly (you don't say how often though) a trip to your doctor is in order. This is a fairly common type of situation and your doctor will know best how to treat it. I've found some relief with taking acidophilis tablets, but you really need to see your doctor to rule anything serious out since there's a good chance it won't go away on its own and will keep recurring. \nI wish you well.

once an infection gets into the blood and you become septic you have a small window of time to get on antibiotics. If the infection passes a certain point they cant stop it even with drugs. It is very common although most people seek treatment before its to late. I went throught the same thing . I thought i had the flu. i was vomiting and could not get warm i was shaking with the chills. i just thought i was a real bad case of the flu. Except i had a small red,warm spot on my arm. The fact that it was warm concerned me.( t=i thought it was a bug bite) I called the dr. and he made me come in. i draged my behind there and he drew blood and sent me to the hospital. for 14 days of antibotic. I was already septic it was from getting pincked by a rose torn while working in the garden. (i dont any more) He said i had 2 days and if i wouldnt have gone in when i did i most likeily would have died. I was so sick believe me at the time i thought death looked real good. They kept me in the hospital 15 days. I had 14 days of the intreviounes antibiotics and constant blood tests. If they dont treat it for 14 days the infection can hide some where in the body. usually the brain and then manifest its self again later. People dont want to bother with the dr. because they think they can fight off something andsave the expence. Not me Not any more. I go and get check out right away or ant least call and discuss it with him. I will pray for your friend and keep him in my prayers as i also have a friend in the UK who is suffering from the same thing and hopefully will pull through. Infections are nothing to fool around with. Jim Hensen for the Muppets creator died of an infection too. In in daught seek medical help always.
