Patient's question:
I've been feeling pain when I go to the bathroom these days, mainly in my urethra, and it's also itchy. I keep wanting to go to the bathroom, whether I need to or not, but when I really go, there's nothing much to pass. The urge to urinate comes on suddenly and it's very urgent. Are these symptoms of a urinary tract infection?Doctor's answer:
Frequent urination, itching, are likely signs of a urinary tract infection or vulvitis. It is recommended that you undergo a series of detailed examinations at the gynecology department, including blood and urine tests, vaginal discharge tests, and abdominal ultrasound.If it is a urinary tract infection, you can take medications such as ciprofloxacin or Sanjin tablets. If it is vulvitis, you can use compound kushen solution. Please strictly follow the doctor's advice regarding dosage and usage.
Pay attention to maintaining vulvar hygiene, wear loose cotton underwear, enhance nutrition, and avoid sexual activity during treatment.
