Dear lybrate-user
When benefit outweigh the risk medicines are given to the children under 1 year age and your doctor had done his job best by helping you with the medication. Please don’t have any doubt in continuing the medication. And also please don’t use medication on your own or on any online suggestions because you are trying to treat a small baby. Take the baby to near by pediatrician whenever the baby falls sick. Get well soon.

Uti is a chronic problem. You should take treatment minimum for 4 wks. Take plenty of liquids to flush the kidney. You should get urine c& s tested from any pathological laboratory to select the drug which is effective to you.

Yes with growth it get corrected but will require surgery at a certain age if not improved. Your urologist is the right person to decide the age. Invariably it take place once growth is complete. Till then you have to train you child for pee training. Not to let him accumulate too much urine in bladder so that it back fires. Right now home care and make your child pee every 1 hr irrespective of amount of urine comes out. It will help reduce pressure on bladder and won't let urine go back to kidn...more

My son is 4 months old for one month he is suffering from frequent urination. The first doctor gave taxim o drops for five days after that he went for an ultrasound. It was debris in urinary bladder with internal echoes he also got klebsiella oxytoca in culture. Then the doctor wrote amikacin and cefuroxime injections. But we don't go for injections as my boy had no fever vomiting or weight loss. We changed the doctor and the other doctor wrote zifi drops. We used it for 10 days. But the urine frequency is 30 mins now. He referred to a nephrologist. He got his mcug test done which is normal. The doctor advised sporidex for one-half month after which he suggested dmsa scan. We are using sporidex now 0.5 ml. Now the baby stream is low sometimes and normal sometimes but the output is reduced. Frequency is the same. Complete urinalysis is 3 -4 pus cells always. Is it normal?

Better consult an urologist or a pediatric urologist. One single infection in the urinary bladder can be possible. Get a repeat urine culture. To see whether all bacteria is killed. Or is it persisting inspite of many antibiotics.

Health Query

I've been diagnosed with uti after having bad fever (multiple fever cycles a day despite taking acetaminophen) and some vomiting for 3 days even though the typical symptoms (burning, frequent urination, constant need to pee) while urinating subsided (and started after sex) even before the fever started. Urine analysis was positive in bacteria (no specific), nitrites, blood, leucocites and protein. The doctor who I consulted beforehand then prescribed me ciprofloxacin as treatment. By chance I got to speak to another doctor who prescribed me cefalexin. I investigated both and came to a conclusion that ciprofloxacin carries adverse effects which risk I don't feel comfortable taking (especially neuropathy). I don't like to take antibiotics in general, which makes me even more weary about side effects they have. Why one or the other antibiotic and how will the treatment differ? Am I overly paranoid about potential risks? I like to understand why doctors decide for a specific medicine but have not had the luxury of being given any explanation. Hoping that maybe this community gives me some answers. Thank you in advance.

one reason for not healing is tab omnacortil 40 which you are taking, secondly this may be due to nerve insensitive if there is no pain, or may be due to venous origin if venous engorgement is there with pigmentation around, so consult your doctor for can you stop omnacortil, get examined for venous type, by the use compression bandage and leg elevation.
