Can Treatment For A Possible UTI Be Postponed?

I think I have a UTI. I have blood in my urine and frequent urination with the sensation of needing to urinate frequently and pain and burning when I urinate. I feel like I can t empty my bladder. I also have frequent urination leakage. I have a doctor s appointment three days from now. Is it ok to wait until then or should I seek treatment sooner?

Hi,

1. According to the symptoms described by you, you are likely to be suffering from Urinary tract infection.

2. You can take Cefuroxime twice daily for 7 days.

3. Take plenty of fluids.

4. Syrup Citralka will help you soothe out the burning.

Hope you will feel better in a day or two.
