Hello, I am facing irritation while urination. We have consulted two doctors so far, one told it is very serious issue and suggested inj. Mero (1gm), inj. Pantocid (40 mg), inj. Paracetamol (1000 mg), inj. Emeset (2 ml), tablet drolgan (80 & 100) for 2 times a day for a week. We got panic and went to another urologist specialist, he was cool, asked us not to panic, told not serious as of now and suggested urispas tablet for me and oflomac for myself and my wife for a week. By the end of that week the irritation was not there. Again after 2 days of stopping the tablet, again irritation is there when I urinate. Doctor has asked to take semen culture test now. I am really worried and panic about this situation, is it serious or nothing to be worried? Attaching blood test results: urine culture test - colony count - 80000 colonies/ml. Organism isolated - pseudomonas. Antibiotic susceptibility report: amikacin, meropenem, gentamicin, ofloxacin, piperacillin/tazobactam - sensitive.

Your symptoms are suggestive of complicated urinary tract infection. As per culture report, inj meropenem was good choice but it should be continued for longer duration followed by oral antibiotics for total of atleast 10 to 14 days. An ultrasound of kidney ureter and bladder and prostate is madatory. You should consult with a good physician or a nephrologist for proper evaluation of uti and optimal treatment. Take care.
