Question

After urination, my child experiences pain and frequent urination. This has been going on for a day, and I suspect a urinary tract infection. Are there any effective treatment methods without antibiotics?

Answer

This situation in children is likely to be a urinary tract infection. It’s important to visit a hospital promptly for a routine urine test and receive appropriate treatment. Inflammation requires anti-inflammatory measures, and under a doctor’s guidance, using anti-inflammatory medication is generally not harmful to children. However, if left untreated, it may lead to more severe consequences. It’s crucial to ensure that the child drinks plenty of water, as this will help the inflammation subside much faster, and it’s essential to keep the perineal area clean and dry at all times.
