Can cystitis be a cause of pain while passing urine?
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am 17 years old and have sharp pain while passing urine. I need have the urge, but not able to pass urine. I searched this up on the internet. It might be cystitis. It has been going on for about two weeks and causing me a lot of pain and confusion.
Please help.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome to iCliniq.com.
Please go for a urine routine and microscopy test along with a sonography KUB (kidney, ureter, and bladder) to be sure if this is a UTI (urinary tract infection) or cystitis. If the urine report shows more than ten pus cells per HPF (high-pass filter) with a normal sonography report, treat it as UTI with a course of Cefixime 200 milligrams twice a day for five days. Kindly go for a urine culture as well before starting this. Please drink at least six to seven cups of water daily to prevent these issues.
I hope that you get your answer.
Please let me know if you need any help.
Thank you.
