My daughter (7yrs) is feeling severe pain while urinating since day before evening .She is also urinating very frequently and not able to control the pressure . Her urine routine test reports are normal .So,it doesn't seem to be UTI .
Pls guide what can be the other reason and solution.

Hi...
Symptoms are strongly suggestive of lower urinary tract infection which is very common in girls. By simple Urine examination you cant rule out UTI. So better give sample for URINE CULTURE & SENSITIVITY.
Even cultures may be negative in most of the cases. So dont think that there is no UTI.
So consult a pediatrician nearby or online and give sample for urine cultures and start the child on antibiotics. It is better if you do ultrasound abdomen also...

Hi, she has symptoms of UTI . It is common in girls of this age group. Urine routine test is not enough to decide , clean catch urine culture and sensitivity must be done then antibiotics can be started and ultrasound abdomen can be done to rule out stones in the urinary tract and other causes for pain
Next Steps
