Urinary and General Care for Patients from Tin Factory
Burning when you pass urine, needing to go often, pain in the side or back, or repeated infections are all reasons to be checked, and women are more prone to urine infections than men. Sai Speciality Center in Kasturi Nagar, Bengaluru, assesses and treats urinary tract infections and recurrent infections, assesses kidney stone symptoms and offers general women’s health care to patients from Tin Factory, KR Puram, Horamavu, Banaswadi and Ramamurthy Nagar. Care is led by Dr. Kavitha Lakshmi Easwaran, MBBS, MD (OBG).
Quick answers
- What are common UTI symptoms? Burning when passing urine, frequent or urgent need to go, cloudy or blood-tinged urine and lower abdominal pain.
- When is it urgent? Fever, shivering, pain in the back or side, vomiting, blood in the urine, or any urine infection symptoms in pregnancy.
- Do I need a urine test? A test helps confirm the infection, and a culture helps choose the right antibiotic.
- Can I take leftover antibiotics? No. The wrong antibiotic or a half course can leave the infection untreated.
- How much water should I drink? The NHS suggests about 2.5 to 3 litres a day for adults when preventing kidney stones, unless your doctor has advised otherwise.
Urine Infections (UTIs)
A UTI is caused by bacteria entering the urinary system, usually the bladder. It is treated with a short course of antibiotics chosen by your doctor, usually guided by a urine test. Infections that reach the kidney, infections in pregnancy and infections that keep coming back need closer care. Read more on our UTI treatment page.
When UTIs Keep Coming Back
Two infections in six months, or three in a year, count as recurrent. The doctor looks for triggers such as sex, menopause-related changes, diabetes, stones, incomplete emptying of the bladder, or not drinking enough. Prevention plans may include fluids, habits, a vaginal treatment after menopause, or a preventive medicine course. See recurrent UTI treatment.
Kidney Stone Symptoms
Small stones often cause no symptoms. Larger ones can cause severe pain in the side or lower back that comes in waves and may spread to the groin or the area around the vaginal opening, along with nausea, frequent urination, cloudy urine or fever. Severe pain, fever or vomiting needs a doctor the same day. Most stones pass at home with pain relief and plenty of water, while larger or blocking stones need a procedure by a urologist. Our page on kidney stone treatment explains the steps.
Everyday Habits That Protect the Urinary System
- Drink enough water that your urine stays pale
- Do not hold urine for long periods
- Pass urine soon after sex
- Wipe from front to back after using the toilet
- Limit fizzy, caffeinated and alcoholic drinks, and keep salt low
- Treat symptoms early rather than waiting for them to settle
General Women’s Health Care
Urinary symptoms often overlap with gynaecological problems such as vaginal infections, prolapse, fibroids or menopause changes, so one assessment can look at all of them. We also offer routine check-ups, cervical screening, advice on contraception and women’s health concerns. See general gynaecology. In pregnancy, urine infections can affect both mother and baby, so tests are part of antenatal care.
