Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
hi, my daughter is suffering severe pain in her stomach, near enough daily now, usually sick aswell, sometimes dioreah, we are waiting for a peadiatrician appointment and the dr asked for a urine sample, it came back that there was puss in her urine. what does this mean?
Hi. The pus in urine is suggestive of an Urinary tract infection. Your daughter has UTI. I would advise: Blood- complete blood picture, kidney functions tests, blood sugar fasting and post-lunch, Urine- routine,microscopy, culture and sensitivity ( before start of antibiotic) Ultrasonography of abdomen. After the urine is sent for culture, antibiotics can be started immediately- Added Amikacin in proper dosage can work wonders, The most important point is there may be a root-cause for UTI in such a small child and if required CT scan of the abdomen is needed to get the cause and treat this too to avoid recurrence.
