Uti. On Cefalexine, Generic Nsaid. Feeling Itchy On Butt, Cheeks, Leg, Scrotum. Solution?
Hi im on my 3rd day medication of uti. Im drinkig cefalexin together with generic nsaid. Now im experiencing lesser pain in urination. But my concern is the itchiness i feel started earlier about 12 hours ago, it started on the butt cheeks then lower back leg then on the scrotum and front of lower extremities. What can i do about it? Theres only the feeling of itchiness without redness swelling or patches. It looks like normal but it is very itchy.

Hi,
Your condition looks like an allergy to me. You could have allergy to cefalexin which is very common. It could also be contact allergy related to use of new cosmetics, soaps or also new innerwear.
Contact your physician and he will help you with this. I would suggest not to stop the antibiotics course as your UTI needs to be treated and cured.
