My 15 months old daughter is having fever cough and cold since last 6 days. She was coughing and having severe cold which is now reduced somewhat. Still coughing is there. At start she was getting fever around 99 to 100 degree in every 8 hrs but now she is getting fever in every 6 hrs. Pediatrician told us to do xray and blood report. I have attached the same in the chat. Xray report is also normal. Now doctor told to get urine tested. She had UTI 3 months back. Can someone suggest what should we do now? We are giving her currently maftol ascoril and matrax drops as prescribed by doctor.

Since the fever pattern has changed and there is a history of UTI, it is important to rule out infection recurrence. X ray is normal, so urine test is crucial now. Continue prescribed medications and monitor hydration.

View allI have been suffering from a urinary infection for the last 4 to 5 days. My blood test report shows a urinary infection, and USG indicates hepatomegaly with a calyceal cyst in the left kidney. Please advise. I have started taking antibiotics. Will this be enough, or should I consult a superspecialist?

Hi Doctor, my father has type 2 diabetes, and his blood sugar was 270 mg per dL. He is currently on medication for diabetes. Over the past month, he has been experiencing frequent urination at night along with a burning sensation. These symptoms have occurred 2 to 3 times and tend to go away while he is on antibiotics, but they return once the antibiotics are stopped. An ultrasound of the lower abdomen revealed grade I fatty liver, a right renal cyst (1.2 by 1.1 cm), and grade I prostate enlargement (1.6 by 1.5 cm). Doctors have suggested that his urinary symptoms might be related to his diabetes. However, I would like to know if this could be a recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI), whether diabetes is the main cause of his symptoms, and what the appropriate treatment should be. His renal function test (RFT) is normal. I am attaching the USG and urine reports for further evaluation.
