Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For High Fever And Pain During Urination
My father is 65. He is now having high fever and having little pain in urinating. He is diabetic but remained under control. The tests reports are showing he is having urine infections and some prostrate issue. Could you please advise the appropriate actions that are to be take after going through the reports.
These symptoms are suggestive of uroinfection and this is common in your age and usually is manifested with pain during urination, fever and changes in urination frequency.
Also, blood traces may be present in urine which can have odor or color change.
Other common causes are urinary stones. Diagnosis is established by doing urine analysis and urinoculture and after this antibiotic treatment may be started if necessary.
If there is negative urine analysis then you should do an ultrasound of kidneys to check for stones. You should drink plenty of fluids and take raspberry tea or juice to promote urination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
