Potential UTI whilst travelling.

Asked for Female, 28 years

Hi I'm Australian fem currently travelling in Finland. I have what might be severe UTI. I am shaky, have bouts of sharp internal pain and external soreness in my lower belly, frequent pee, cloudy/pinkish pee. I took some leftover antibiotics (penicillin), 2 days worth, but it is still painful and irregular. I have PCOS, I have had a UTI in the last few months and always get thrush within a week of ridding it. Here for 1month, don't know how/if I can get care/cant visit doc twice. Can I wait?

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. Well it depends on the severity of your pain and urine, if the urine gets pussy or bloody or output decreases then this is an emergency. I would recommend to have lots of cranberry juice meanwhile and take a good anti-spasm painkiller like the sort one takes for periods to help relieve pain. Eventually, you will need a urine test and antibiotics to cure this or things can get complicated.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Gynecologists in Lahore and seek in-person advice.
