View allI've been dealing with a urine infection since this morning. I'm not experiencing much itching or pain, but I feel a constant pressure to pee frequently. There's no intense pain or burning, just a slight burning sensation for a couple of seconds when I actually pass urine. I've been drinking a lot of liquids to help with this. Can you suggest any medicine or remedies since I can't find a doctor nearby right now?
It sounds like a mild urinary tract infection. Continue drinking plenty of water, as this helps flush out bacteria. If symptoms persist or worsen, take a urinary alkalizer like potassium citrate sachets (e.g., Cital) to ease burning. Seek medical advice soon for a proper antibiotic if needed. Rest well!

I'm dealing with an Escherichia coli UTI, and my weight is 58 kg. The lab report says Chloramphenicol could be effective. Could you guide me on the appropriate dosage for the 500mg capsules? I'm a bit concerned about getting it right.
Chloramphenicol is commonly used to treat Escherichia coli UTIs. The recommended dosage for adults is usually 500 mg every 6 hours. Since your weight is 58 kg, the appropriate dosage for you would be 500 mg every 6 hours. It is important to complete the full course of treatment as prescribed by your healthcare provider to ensure the infection is completely eradicated.

I'm dealing with 34 kidney stones spread across both my kidneys, each about 4 to 5 mm in size. I'm considering taking Cystone to help with this, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach. How should I go about it if it's recommended? What dosage and time frame would be best for something like this?
yes continue all the medications..
