Hello,

The symptoms of your mother seem to be related to a urinary tract infection.

I suggest doing a urine culture to confirm the bacteria and proper treatment.

Meanwhile, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms.

I also suggest drinking a lot of liquids.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
