Got UTI after doing kegel exercise

2019-03-04 11:02:02
Hello Doctor, I went through C section surgery last month to deliver my baby. Post that, I started doing kegel ( contract and release pelvic floor muscle during urination) to contract the uterus. It's been 15 days now. And now my urinary tract has got infected due to this. Please advice if I should stop doing kegel further now or please suggest a medicine to cure the infection. Thanks, Priyanka

Excercises has nothing to do with UTI. Give urine sample for routine examination and culture and sensitivity. See your doctor nearby
