Urination Problem

I had a small bowel resection June 25.(crohn's disease) . After about 10 days home doing well I ended up with a bladder infection. I had some bladder issues in the hospital and needed cathaders. I have beeen on Nitrofur-macr 100 twice a day for 5 days and am not sure it is helping. Sometimes I think it is. I sometimes have a bloody urination and one time it was bloody with a lot of slimy material I am due to have 5 more days of the nitrofur. When should I expect to really start feeling better ?

Hi, Hal! How are you feeling?

After 5 days, you should have already seen some improvement. The slimy material you saw was most likely pus from the infection.

Generally, there should be no worsening after 5 days on an antibiotic, if it's working and then improvement after 3 days.

Since you're still experiencing these symptoms, I believe you should contact your doctor, because you're most likely going to need to try a different antibiotic.
