Cystitis Relief

I’m 14, male, 5"7 and fairly slim, if thats relevant.

In November I had a UTI which I was treated with antibiotics for, and that cleared up (if thats relevant).

Anyway, I am experiencing these symptoms:

A few times a day, experiencing moderate testicle pain (in the right one) for a few minutes, can be ignored though. More often, having light abdominal cramps, but hardly painful. I am also having a slight burning sensation when I urinate. However, I am not using the toilet more often or anything like that. But last week on one day, 2 or 3 times when I went to use the toilet, there was some blood in the urine. That was painless, though.

What do you think is wrong with me? Could the UTI be returning? As last time when I had the UTI, I had blood in my urine a few days before I had frequent urination. But I’m not sure, last time I don’t think I had much pain in my testicle. I feel like it is unlikely to be kidney stones as the pain is not at all severe, and not all in the same places as it usually is to be a kidney stone.

Thanks.

Nothing replaces a good exam by a qualified doc.

I have an 8 month old puppy.

I noticed on her evening walk today that after she urinated properly, whilst we were walking along she would stop every so often and squat as if going to the toilet again but only tiny drops were showing on the pavement.

I’ve never heard of a bitch that scents just like an un-castrated male would, but it seems a bit like she is scenting or she has a UTI.

Although saying that, I don’t know if the symptoms of a dogs UTI are the same as a human one, I know that when I have a UTI, I sometimes feel like I haven’t completely emptied my bladder even though I have.

She is spayed, she’s been spayed for 2 months and I’ve only just noticed it so I don’t think that it’s the incontinence that can sometimes be a side effect of being spayed (although I realise it could be).

Has anyone else been through this with their dog?

(I will book an appointment for her at the vets if I need to, I just want some opinions)

Some female dogs mark for scent (mine has the route worked out exactly where it needs to be done) but what you’re describing sounds like a UTI or maybe some kind of submissive urination. Was the little puppy sending you Calming Signals at the time: eg. licking her lips, turning her head from you?
Anyway, get the vet to check for UTI you don’t wnat their kidneys to get compromised.

Alright, so a little background: I am a female, and I’ve had two male "partners." The first one I only had handjobs with and that was over a year ago. The second I had oral with twice, and that was seven months ago, no condom (stupid I know, please don’t comment if you are only going to scold me).

About a month or two ago, I went to my doctor because I felt a small bump down there and I was experiencing some itching and tingling sensation. She gave me a pelvic exam and said that the bump seemed only like an ingrown hair or irritation and would disappear in a few days. She attributed the itching to a new soap I was using and told me to check to see if it would stop. So a few days pass and everything goes away.

A few weeks later I felt some pain that at first seemed like a UTI, but I had no other symptoms of UTI (no pain when urinating, no frequent bathroom use…). I ate a ton of cranberries and it seemed to go away.

A few weeks after that, so now, I am still drinking a lot of cranberry juice out of paranoia but I am feeling some vaginal pain again. It’s hard to place where it is exactly, but it’s definitely under the public bone and not the urethra. After a few days of experiencing it several times a day within the course of an hour or two a day, I decided to see the doctor again. She gave me a pelvic exam again and said everything looks normal to her. She also said I do not have the right history to have an STD, but tested me for HIV and mono (both negative).

I am still a bit worried because most STDs can show no symptoms at all, or none until they get into the more serious stages. Does this sound like an STD to anyone? Or is there any non-STD explanation to all of this?

that is weird. She tells you that you dont have the right history!! Yes you do if you have had sex. You need to be tested for STD’s. Do not let the Doc tell you any diffrent. Good Luck.
