Two days back I had frequent urination every half an hour. After taking metronidazole for 2 days it is improving but earlier I had some bladder pain with inflammation. My urine test report is normal but I did not do a urine culture test. Inside my penis there is a burning sensation. Is any problem occurring?

Burning and frequent urination can suggest urethritis or prostatitis, even with a normal urine report. Since it improved with metronidazole, the infection is likely. However, a urine culture is essential to rule out resistant infection.

How did I get bacteria in my urine?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am experiencing a burning sensation after urinating, and my urine is dark yellow. I did a urine test, but the results were normal. What could be causing this?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been experiencing urinary tract infection symptoms for the past few days, including burning during urination and white discharge. I consulted a doctor online and was prescribed the following medications for 5 days Niftas Pan D tablets Zerodol tablets Citralka liquid While the pain has reduced slightly, the symptoms have not fully resolved. I am still experiencing discomfort, and the white discharge continues. I have attached my blood and urine reports for your review.
