Should An Ultrasound Be Done For Upper Abdominal Pain After Taking Antibiotics For UTI?
About a month ago I had really bad uti symptoms like burning when urinating, strong urine smell, lower abdominal pain, itching. I went to a clinic and they said my urine was clean. I then thought it was a yeast infection so i took AZO for that, a week later my urine was smelling bad again but I had no symptoms, I still went in to the clinic and they then said I had a really bad uti. They gave me a very painful antibiotic shot that day and a 5 day course of antibiotics. Once I finished, I started getting a pain in my upper left back really bad and in my stomach on my left side too. Then it went away within a few days taking ibuprofen. Now I keep getting a pain in my upper abdomen right in the middle. Feels like a dull stabbing pain. I sometimes get it with a burning pain as well. It comes and goes so i dont know if I should schedule another appointment or not for an ultrasound.
