What Is The Treatment For Urinary Tract Infection In A Child?

hi, my 1.03 yrs baby is suffering from fever from last 2-3 days. When given Paracetamol it goes off. Urine tested and showed RBCs 8-10 and acetone bodies +1 rest parameters are normal. No sore throat or cough. Is anything related to swine flu. Doctors diagnosed as UTI. I m worried as here in India we have Swine flu epidemic.

Pediatrician 's  Response
RVC can be sign of dysmetabolic neuropathy, because Crystals of salt can hurt glomerules. White blood cells will indicate infection. You told nothing about protein in urine, which also indicate infection more often in glomerules. We need additional urine analysis-cytology, analysis for salts and other. You should consult at nephrologist. For treatment infection better use cefixime,because it is very sensitive to E.coli, which causes inflammation in kidney. Give to baby plenty of water.

Recovery soon
