Hello, Thanks for your query on Lybrate "As" per your clinical history is concerned please follow like this - 1) Do a clinical examination by your Doctor[urologist] and to confirm do few investigations like this (Urine RE/ME/CULTURE & cystoscope) and take correct medication as per the report. 2) Do check your fasting blood sugar on tomorrow and if it is high then discuss with your Doctor to adjust medications and without medication adjustment infection will not be controlled. Do follow lifestyle modifications like this - 1) Eat healthy foods. Choose foods lower in fat and calories and higher in fiber. Focus on fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Discuss with your dietitian to make a chart. 2) Get more physical activity. Aim for 30 minutes of moderate physical activity a day. Take a brisk daily walk. Ride your bike. Swim laps. If you can't fit in a long workout, break it up into smaller sessions spread throughout the day. 3) Try to lose the excess weights. If you're overweight, losing even 7 percent of your body weight can reduce the risk of diabetes complications. To keep your weight in a healthy range, focus on permanent changes to your eating, and exercise habits. Hope that helps.
