Urology Visits & Urinary Infections in Spanish

Burning when you pee, or rushing to the bathroom every few minutes? Here at Clínica Hispana Nueva Salud Gessner, your urine test is done at the clinic, and when it shows an infection your prescription is sent to your pharmacy the same day. Our medical team explains the findings in English or Spanish and how to take the medicine.

What signs point to a urinary tract infection?

• Burning or stinging every time you urinate
• A sudden, frequent urge to go, even when very little comes out
• Cloudy urine, darker than usual or with a strong smell
• Pressure or aching low in the belly
• In older adults, sometimes only unusual confusion or tiredness

How is the sample collected, and what happens next?

When you arrive we hand you a sterile cup and show you how to catch a midstream sample after washing your hands and genital area. While the urinalysis is being checked, the medical team asks how long the symptoms have lasted, whether you have had similar infections before and whether you are pregnant or taking other medicines. If the test confirms an infection, the medical team prescribes treatment and we send an e-prescription to whichever pharmacy is most convenient for you.

When is a urine culture ordered?

If infections keep coming back several times a year, if an earlier treatment did not work, or if the symptoms do not quite fit, the medical team may send a urine culture to identify the bacteria and the antibiotic that works best against it. The culture is a separate study that takes longer than the urine test: we let you know when the result is in and adjust the treatment if needed. If a result calls for it, we guide you through the referral to a specialist.

Which symptoms suggest the infection may have reached the kidneys?

Fever, chills, pain in the lower back or one side, nausea or vomiting together with painful urination are reasons to come in right away. During pregnancy, any urinary symptom deserves a check, because the infection is treated with medicines chosen to protect the baby as well. Since the clinic sees patients from 9 AM to 9 PM on Saturdays and Sundays too, you do not have to put up with the discomfort until Monday.
