Girls with symptoms of urinary tract infections usually require anti-infective treatment if they are diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. If the patient is found to have a predisposing factor for urinary tract infections, the patient should also try to remove the predisposing factor.
Symptoms of urinary tract infection include fever, chills, urinary frequency, urinary urgency, painful urination, and difficulty urinating. Urine cultures are needed to look for evidence of infection and to provide a basis for further treatment. If the pathogens are clearly identified by laboratory tests, effective anti-infective treatment should be given in a timely manner.
Currently, the commonly used antibiotics for urinary tract infections include levofloxacin, amoxicillin, cephalosporin, etc. The recommended first-line drugs for women with uncomplicated cystitis are furotoxin and fosfomycin, which have less impact on the normal flora. Antibiotic treatment should be accompanied by drinking plenty of water and urinating more often to help with rapid recovery.
If the patient has recurrent urinary tract infections, the presence of predisposing factors should be considered, such as urinary stones, vesicoureteral reflux, urinary tract obstruction or stenosis, etc. Further investigations should be carried out at the earliest possible time to clarify the causes, such as urinary ultrasound, CT, etc., to try to remove the predisposing factors in a timely manner.
Girls with symptoms of urinary tract infections are advised to go to the hospital as soon as possible, under the guidance of a professional doctor to be treated accordingly, and not to use their own medication in order to avoid causing adverse reactions.
