Asked for male, 25 years old from Bundi

I am 25 year old male feeling burn in my penis right after I pee and the burn goes away after some time suffering from this from the past 2-3 days the local doctor asked to change water.

General Physician•Chennai

It can be due to two reasons
first is urinary tract infection for which fever, burning sensations and itching symptoms will be present. If fever is present a course of antibiotics should be taken for 5 days
second is due to climatic conditions like hot and humid weather can cause this type of burning sensation after voiding. For this more intake of water and tender coconut water are advised.

Health Query

Hello, over the past week ive had urinary pain and burning. Ive gone to urgent care and urine had no bacteria. I was prescribed nitrofurantoin and it did not help long term, pain continued. Felt relief for a while but pain did not go away. I noticed I started feeling an itchy feeling down there and my head had a rash / red discoloration that seemed irritated. Went back to another urgent care and was provided medication for a yeast infection. This seemed to really help. Was told on the third day to take the second pill if needed. Im on my second day and the burning is back just as strong as before. Do utis really last this long to heal? Should I be worried its something else? Please note im only sexually active with my wife.

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.

I would like to know your problem in detail and also what medicines you had taken earlier. A uti shouldn't last this long. Provide me details so that I could prescribe you something.

I have been having whitish particles in my urine when I urinate and keep it for a while, I notice white particles at the bottom of my urine. Please what is causing it. And secondly I have been having pain at my lower right abdomen which comes and go. Should I be worried? Thank you.

Whitish discharge in urine in males is not normal. It could be due to increased glucose discharge from urine or due to reterograde ejaculation. It might also be associated with an infection. I need to evaluate before being able to prescribe anything. Also a urine test is required to find the definitive cause.

Asked for male, 38 years old from Chennai

My son 11 years old has bilateral hydro utero nephrosis (moderate dilation of pelivcalceal system and ureter is noted with mild urothelial thickening) and also has cystitis, with bladder wall thickening of 5.6 mm. He spotted blood drops at the end of urination. Bun/creatinine normal. Doctor gave antibiotic and all bacterial and uti symptoms are cleared, took mcug and report is normal. He also has constipation, both usg and ct reported fecal loaded large bowel loops. He is on continuous anti-biotic bactrim at night, suggested to do usg after 4 weeks. He had gross hematuria 2 years ago, that got cleared after 8 days course of sporidex and citralka. Now, my doubts are: 1) why he is getting repeated uti? 2) can anti-biotic alone cure hydro-utero nephrosis? Don't know if hydro nephrosis is due to current cystitis or previous uti 2 years ago. 3) is this treatable or not. Very much worried.

1) most common cause of repeated uti is a bad valve but mcug has ruled that out the next common cause could be residual infections and also ureteric stones and strictures predisposes to urinary tract infection. I would like to see all the reports of your child. To really be able to answer you something concrete. 2) hydroureteronephrosis is dilation of ureter and kidney caused due to a obstruction most common cause of it is renal stones. Other cause include healing scars which block the tube. 3) ...more

Asked for male, 38 years old from Chennai

My son is 10 years old. He had spotted blood in urine 3 weeks ago. Usg-abdomen and kub-ct confirmed cystitis, bladder wall thickening of 5.6 mm, bilateral moderate hydro utero nephrosis. He is on anti-bacterial medications for past 3 weeks, uti symptoms are not seen now. Mcug test report is normal. What could be the root-cause of bilateral hydro-uterro-nephrosis? Could it be due to any of previous incidents of uti? How should we proceed now?

Dr. Anshuman Sahu91%(433 ratings)

In bilateral cases a bad valve on urinary bladder may have caused infection bilaterally. If similar incident happen that would be a problem. I would like to see your son's report to say anything conclusive.
