HI, My Mother is sufferring from mild renal abscess. Her kidney looks bulky and she is on antibiotics - Magnex and Amikacin for last 5 days. She still has fever. And yesterday night, she has excessive sweating. Please advice whether the treatment is correct
Hey. Welcome to Chat Doctor. Mild renal abscess is best treated by Intravenous antibiotics, for a duration of 1-2 weeks depending on the response of the patient. If your mother is on Intravenous antibiotics then that is well and good. Please wait till the course of antibiotics is completed. Once when the course is completed, you can get a ULTRASOUND done to see the improvement. For fever, try to take Paracetamol tablet- 650 mg, every 8th hourly after food, in case she has no known allergies to it. Please wait for few days more. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any questions, then I will be happy to answer it. Take good care of your mother.:)Warm Regards.
