I've just got over a kidney infection. Dip test is now showing no signs but sometimes after visiting the toilet I still feel like I need to go. I've got irritable bladder syndrome, could this be another symptom? Thank you xx

    Yes it could be Pauline. If you can take some paracetamol that may help I was told, as a UTI can cause a bit of inflammation so paracetamol may just settle things a bit.

      Thank you. Will try some paracetamol. I didn't know a UTI could cause inflammation. Makes sense now 😊

      Anti inflammatories are the most appropriate for any irritation.
