Optional Information: Person's Gender: Male Person's Age: 56 Already Tried: Antibiotics ,( cipro) meds for presure,meds for the bladder.meds for pain oxyces.15 mg.the oxcyces work for about 3 1/2 hrs then the pain returns .
Thanks for your question. If I don't respond to you immediately, it is because I am either in the OR or traveling. I WILL get back to you ASAP.Has he had cystoscopy or a CT scan done by a urologist to evaluate the inside of the bladder?
Yes He has,they found nothing.they did urine sample too .it only showed bacteria.He hasn't had a CT scan .though.
If the urine sample showed bacteria, then this means he has a bladder infection. The infection is causing him to have inflammation of the bladder wall and the pain he currently has. His doctor needs to look at the urine culture results to see which antibiotic the bacteria is sensitive t and then place him on a 2 week course of this antibiotic. They should also consider doing a CT scan to rule out unrecognized kidney stones as a source of persistent infection. Hope this helps.
