Question 1

I have a 6mm kidney stone in my left kidney. Currently, I am experiencing constipation and a heavy feeling in my belly. My report mentions gas in the bowel detected by a 10 MHz scan. Could the constipation be related to the kidney stone. Please suggest how I can relieve the constipation and what steps I should take? Thank you, sir.

Question 2

I 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?

Question 3

My 15 month old baby girl was treated for a UTI 15 days ago, but now she has another infection. After 2 days of medication, her urine report shows the following
Colour is Straw
Appearance is Hazy
Reactionis Acidic
Protein is Nil
Sugar is Nil
Pus cells is 3 to 4 per HPF
Red cells is Nil
Epithelial cells is 1 to 2 per HPF
Crystals is Nil
Casts is Nil
What should I do to stop this recurring infection?

Please review my report and let me know if I am suffering from a urinary tract infection. Also, could you explain what culture yields mixed growth of organisms, more than 10,000 CFU per ml (more than 3 types of bacteria grown) means?

Mixed growth can indicate contamination. Repeat urine culture with proper sample collection is recommended to confirm if UTI is present.
