Hi,
Thank you for choose Health Care Magic. I read carefully your query and I understand your concern.
The blood and puss in urine indicate for a urinary tract infection, the antibiotic is indicated to treat the bacterial infection. The normally duration of antibiotic intake for urinary tract infection is 3 days, 5days, 7days, 10 or 14 days depending on the symptoms. During the intake of antibiotic I recommend you to drink a plenty of water regularly, it help wash down the bacteria and remove them with urine and relief the pain while urinating. Add to your diet vitamin C fruits and vegetables e.g. strawberries ,oranges because it help increasing the immune system fighting more faster the infection and have a good practical hygiene to prevent and treat the urinary infection,for this you should take daily showers and use herbal products(chamomile) and don’t use harsh soap and chemical soap for genital area.
Hope I give answer to your problem. Feel free to ask me again
Take care,
Dr .Marsida JANKO
