Severe Vomiting. UTI Diagnosed. Low WBC. Took Antibiotics. Rashes On The Ankle. Anything To Be Worried?
Sister-in-law went to ER two weeks ago for vomiting. Urine sample came back showing she had a UTI and said white blood count extremely low. Prescribed antibiotic. She took some of the Rx but was still sick for a week...did not finish medication...now she woke up...two weeks later...with rash on her ankle. Is there a more serious problem here?

Dear madam,no need to worry.urinary infecttions usually takes nearly two to three weeks to get cured completely.since she developed rash on her ankle its better to consult your doctor in person.if the problem of vomitting/other symptoms still persists you need to consult the urologist/nephrologiist and get an abdominal ultrasound/X ray/cat scan done.
