UTI in stroke patient
Dear Doc. My mother is a stroke patient and is bedridden. Recently I discovered some sediment in her urine bag and urine catheter… So, I’m concluding that she is having some kind of infection. What should I do? Can you prescribe an antibiotic or anything at all. I am really worried. Please help me. Thank you Doctor.
