I'm a 32-year-old woman and I've been getting this burning feeling when I pee, just like the last time I had a UTI. Is there an antibiotic you could recommend for now while I'm waiting to get my urine culture results?

Urinary tract infections can be painful, but you can take steps to ease your discomfort until antibiotics treat the infection. Follow these tips:
Drink plenty of water. Water helps to dilute your urine and flush out bacteria. Avoid drinks that may irritate your bladder.Avoid coffee, alcohol, and soft drinks containing citrus juices or caffeine until your infection has cleared. They can irritate your bladder and tend to aggravate your frequent or urgent need to urinate. Use a heating pad. Apply a warm, but not hot, heating pad to your abdomen to minimize bladder pressure or discomfort.

View allI've had kidney stones for over 20 years with 7 surgeries already. Now there's a 6mm stone at the VUJ and my doctor prescribed cifaxime 200, Uritin 04, and aquzide 12.5. Right now, I only feel sharpness in my penis and discomfort around that area no back pain or bleeding. Can a stone this size pass naturally or do I need to worry?
There are several factors which predict some passage. Size of stone, duration, inflammation etc. Need more information.

Had circumcision surgery a month ago on May 5th but still can't wear underwear directly using cotton to cover it. The stitches haven't dissolved yet and there's high sensitivity in the open area, plus some pain when touching the stitches. How much longer until it heals completely and I can get back to normal?
Wear loose clothing for example: pyjamas, tracksuit bottoms for the first few days. It is advisable to try and avoid wearing underwear, do so until you feel comfortable enough to resume wearing them. It is advisable especially if your work is heavy (manual, driving) to stay off work for at least one week.
