Patient's question:
When I am urinating in the toilet, I always feel some pain in my vagina, and I also experience the sensation of needing to urinate again each time. However, when I go to the toilet, there are also times when I can't urinate. I am worried that I might have a urinary tract infection. What should women do if they have a urinary tract infection?Doctor's answer:
There is a feeling of frequent urination, urgency, and difficulty urinating, which is generally considered to be caused by urinary tract infections such as urethritis or cystitis. The treatment of urinary tract infections primarily focuses on antimicrobial therapy, with no difference between men and women. It is possible to combine the use of fluoroquinolone antibiotics with nitroimidazole antibiotics, or to combine fluoroquinolone antibiotics with cephalosporin antibiotics. A 14-day course is recommended, and it can be repeated if necessary. Drink plenty of water and urinate frequently.
