Is Urinary Track Infection Common After Colonoscopy?
Is it possible to get a urinary track infection following a colonoscopy? I had my first colonoscopy last Friday. I have felt like I have a bladder infection. Hurts right above my pubic bone along my hair line. I still have gas and my system is not working correctly yet so maybe it is residual pain.
hi, No there is no relation with colonoscopy and urinary tract infection ,and yes there will be some discomfort after colonoscopy like gaseous feeling but it will subside automatically. Drink plenty of water have high fiber diet ,this should help you . ANd if pain is very severe you can consider tab Droyin twice a day for coupl of days. Hope this information helps you Thank you
