I am a general dentist with 3+ years of working in real-world setups, and lemme say—every single patient teaches me something diff. It’s not just teeth honestly, it’s people
 and how they feel walking into the chair. I try really hard to not make it just a “procedure thing.” I explain stuff in plain words—no confusing dental jargon, just straight talk—coz I feel like when ppl *get* what's going on, they feel safer n that makes all the difference. Worked with all ages—like, little kids who need that gentle nudge about brushing, to older folks who come in with long histories and sometimes just need someone to really sit n listen. It’s weirdly rewarding to see someone walk out lighter, not just 'coz their toothache's gone but coz they felt seen during the whole thing. A lot of ppl come in scared or just unsure, and I honestly take that seriously. I keep the vibe calm. Try to read their mood, don’t rush. I always tell myself—every smile’s got a story, even the broken ones. My thing is: comfort first, then precision. I want the outcome to last, not just look good for a week. Not tryna claim perfection or magic solutions—just consistent, clear, hands-on care where patients feel heard. I think dentistry should *fit* the person, not push them into a box. That's kinda been my philosophy from day one. And yeah, maybe sometimes I overexplain or spend a bit too long checking alignment again but hey, if it means someone eats pain-free or finally smiles wide in pics again? Worth it. Every time.

Hello,

This is possibly Urinary tract infection that needs prompt antibiotic treatment. It is not related to birth control pills

Rx: Nitrofurantoin 100mg 1-0-1 * 5 days Syp. citralka 10ml mix it with water 1-1-1 for 3 days Paracetamol if you have pain

🛑🛑DRINK PLENTY OF WATER TO FLUSH OUT THE BACTERIA- THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.

Since you found blood in urine, please do a urine test just to confirm.

Please stay hydrated. 🛑 Drink 3-4 litres of water .

I trust this helps Feel free to talk again Thank you

I am a qualified medical doctor with MBBS and DNB Diploma in Family Medicine from NBEMS, and my work has always been centered on treating patients in a complete, not just symptom based way. During my DNB training I rotated through almost every core department—Internal medicine, Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Surgery, Orthopedics, ENT, Dermatology, Psychiatry, Emergency medicine. That mix gave me the skill to manage acute illness, long term disease and preventive care together, something I find very important in family practice. In psychiatry I worked closely with patients who struggled with depression, anxiety, stress related problems, insomnia or substance use. I learned not just about medication but also about simple psychotherapy tools, psycho education and how to talk openly without judgement. I still use that exp in family medicine, specially when chronic disease patients also face mental health issues. My time in General surgery included assisting in minor and major procedures, managing wounds, abscess, sutures and emergencies. While I am not a surgeon, this gave me confidence to recognize surgical cases early, provide first line care and refer fast when needed, which makes a big difference in online or OPD settings. Now I work as a consultant in General medicine and Family practice, with focus on both in-person and online consultation. I treat conditions like fever, infections, gastrointestinal complaints, respiratory illness, and also manage diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders, and lifestyle related chronic diseases. I see women for PCOS, contraception counseling, menstrual health, and children for common pediatric issues. I also dedicate time to preventive health, lifestyle counseling and diet-sleep-exercise advice, since these small changes affect long term wellness more than we often realize. My key skills include holistic diagnosis, evidence based treatment, chronic disease management, mental health support, preventive medicine and telemedicine communiation. At the center of all this is one thing—patients should feel heard, safe, and guided with care that is both professional and personal.

Hi Shantel, thank you for reaching out. I understand this must be very worrying. I’ll help you understand what might be going on and what to do next. Your issues are probably due to post-coital UTI, but we have to keep in mind the other causes as well. Here is my advise -

1. Get these tests done - Urine Routine & Microscopy, Urine Culture & Sensitivity, Ultrasound of KUB and if your periods are delayed then a Urine Pregnancy Test. Review with the reports.

2. Some antibiotics or other important medications can be prescribed after the reports.

3. Till then, drink plenty of oral liquids, start Syrup Urine Alkalinizer 2tsp + 1/2 glass water thrice a day. Avoid intercourse until the infection clears. Avoid Holding urine for long. Avoid using harsh soaps or vaginal washes. Avoid tight synthetic underwear.

Regards, Dr. Nirav Jain MBBS, DNB D.Fam.Med
