Question
Is it difficult to treat urinary tract infections in newborns?
Answer
Urinary tract infections are common in humans, with women being more prone due to their shorter and straighter urinary tract. Simple urinary tract infections are relatively easy to treat with sensitive antibiotics. Urine cultures help determine the causative agent, and drug susceptibility tests guide medication selection. Additionally, oral medications like Raifuku Pien (a traditional Chinese medicine) can be used as an adjunctive treatment. After treatment, no recurrence has been observed.
