Hello,

Thank you for asking your query at DoctorSpring.

I have discussed your case with our Urologist, Dr.Rajiv Goel. We are of the opinion that there is a possible renal failure (kidney failure) due to obstruction. Even thought the probability is less this needs to be evaluated and ruled out. You need to do a Renal Function test, S.Creatinine and Blood Urea to rule out this. Infection is also a possibilty. This can be found out by doing a Urine test (culture and routine). So there is no point in waiting for a week or so. We recommend getting in touch with your Doctor as soon as possible. Try to measure your urine out put. DO NOT over drink water. DO NOT take any OTC medications, especially pain medication.

Hope this helps
