My father has been suffering from a urine infection for one week. He underwent circumcision surgery on August 13th. Currently, he has an infection around the penis, scrotum, and surrounding area, with redness and significant swelling. He also has ulcers all over his tongue and throat. The surgeon who operated on him mentioned that the infection is spreading and recommended injections for faster recovery, which he said would treat both the urine infection and the infection around the penis. I am attaching his prescription and urine report for your review. Please let me know if these medications are appropriate. Also, he is diabetic, and his blood sugar was 180 when last checked at home.

Infections can spread faster in diabetic patients. If the surgeon has advised injectable antibiotics, it is usually to control the spread quickly. Please ensure proper wound care and sugar control.

My urine report shows that I tested positive for bacteria, and the urine appears hazy. Could you please let me know what this means? Should I be concerned, and what steps should I take next? Is this a serious issue?

I am having a burning sensation at the end while peeing and continuously feel like peeing. I am also feeling cold and like I have a fever, but it is not showing on the thermometer. Could it be a UTI? What test should I get done to confirm this?

Hello, my father is facing some problems: urge and itching during urination, brown yellowish urine, dizziness, fever, and loss of appetite. He went for a checkup and the doctor said it is a urine infection and gave him medication for 5 days. After three days, all problems went away and he felt normal. The medicines were Pyridium 100, Nimegesic P, and a heavy antibiotic (I do not remember the name). After 5 days, the doctor advised discontinuing the treatment. Now after 3 days, the problem started again. He went to the doctor and was given the same medication plus Nitrobact 100. Again all symptoms went away. Please tell what the problem could be? I have attached the urine report.
