Patient's question:
Doctor, my baby is now over two years old, and I still dress him in pants with an open crotch. My mother-in-law often takes him to play in the fields, but unfortunately, this led to an infection in his urinary system. I have bought some medicine for him now. What should I pay attention to when using medicine for urinary system infections in children?Doctor's answer:
If you don't pay attention to your child's hygiene, it's easy to cause urinary tract infections, especially urethritis. The specific medication should be determined after a thorough examination to identify the pathogen, so it's better to confirm how to use the medication. When giving medication to children, it's best to avoid antibiotics as much as possible. If antibiotics are necessary, they must be used in the form specifically designed for children and should not be shared with adults. Additionally, it's important to pay attention to the dosage of the medication.
