Recently, I've had some sharp pain in my lower abdomen. When I catch a cold, my face swells. I feel uncomfortable, nauseous, and have difficulty urinating. My lower back and waist ache. What are the symptoms of pyelonephritis, and what should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Middle-aged male, frequent urination and urgency. If a careful examination reveals pyelonephritis, it should be considered that urinary tract infections may be caused by factors such as drinking less water and poor personal hygiene. If active treatment is not provided at that time, it may lead to inflammation escalation, thereby resulting in acute pyelonephritis. It is recommended to drink more plain water, wash the external genitalia daily, change underwear, and actively provide anti-infection medication treatment, while also regularly checking urine routine. It is advised to maintain a light diet and avoid eating greasy foods. Do not smoke or drink beer, and avoid overexertion. Drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables. Pay close attention to personal hygiene on a daily basis, change clothes and underwear frequently, engage in more outdoor activities, exercise regularly, and always stay healthy.
