      UTI infections are very common with us women because of the female plumbling.   My mum often had them when she was young and relatively fit.  Some are more suceptible than others. I wouldn’t worry about cancer since it has been shown you have an infection which can be treated with antibiotics.  I’m sure your dad is watching over you.

      Paraceemol isn’t that strong but some doctors won’t prescribe anything else because anti inflammatories such as Nurofen can be harsh on the stomach and other painkillers can be addictive.  However, if you take Nurofen sparingly and with food, it is better.
