Question
My daughter (4 years) have fever for the last 4 days. Doctor prescribed Wikoryl and Meftal. Even after 4 days she did not recover fully. On the fourth day she started shivering and vomiting. On urine examination, it was found that 8-10 Pus cells, Occ RBCs and bacteria's are present in urine. Doctor told it is UTI. But my child did not have any itching or pain during urination. Whether UTI can occur without pains?
Answer
Yes UTI in children can occur without any signs pertaining to the urine tract. Infact a child with unexplained fever should always be screened for a urine infection. Read the article on "UTI" on www.pediatriconcall.com for further information:
