Patient's question:
Hello, respected doctor!I have a question to ask. My wife often gets up at night, usually 3-4 times, and sometimes she says she has lower back pain. When she went to the hospital for a check-up, nothing significant was found. Could you analyze what the problem might be? Is it a gynecological issue?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is likely caused by a urinary tract infection. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a urinalysis and treatment. Oral medications such as Sanjin tablets and levofloxacin are suggested. At the same time, drink more water and avoid spicy and irritating foods like leeks, scallions, garlic, pepper, and ginger. Avoid warm-natured foods such as mutton, dog meat, and rabbit meat, as well as greasy foods, to prevent inflammation from worsening. Avoid the irritation of smoking and alcohol. During the illness, try to avoid sexual activity to reduce congestion in the urinary and reproductive tracts and prevent mutual infection. In addition to medication, drink more water and maintain a daily urine output of over 2,000 milliliters to help flush the urinary tract.
