Hi there, I have been dealing with this issue for almost 2 months now. I am 32 years old, female, I hardly ever get sick and I am in generally good health. About 2 months ago I started feeling this ache or pressure in my lower stomach only on the left side . It feels like it is in my bladder. I went to the doctor and she told me I had a UTI, she put me on Bactrim for 10 days. The freq. urination and the burning went away but the pain in my bladder didn't. I waited about 2 weeks and then the burning started up again so I went back to the doctor . She then gave me medicine for bacterial Vaginosis and did a pap smear . The medicine was a gel metronidazole. Well after I ended that medicine I was starting to feel alittle better but 3 days after that my freq. urination and ache in my bladder came back. That day my doctor called and said they had my panel back and I tested postitive for ureaplasma and she put me on a zpack 1 day dose. Well I took the zpack yesterday and I don't feel any better , last night I urinated 5 times in an hour and my bladder is so sore today. Like I said the achy feeling is only on my left side of my stomach and on that side is so bloated and when I bend over I can feel the pulling in my bladder. My bladder feels alittle better after I pee but sometimes I can feel a shooting pain when my bladder is almost empty. I don't understand how my urine is clean but I feel like I have some kind of infection. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh and anything w/ caffeine sets me off so bad so I have been staying away from pop and coffee and tea. Even cranberry juice hurts my bladder also, maybe too much acid? Thanks !

Hi.
Like you already know, the most common cause of bladder pressure, light burning, and frequent urination is a urinary tract infection (UTI). Other potential causes include bladder stones, an enlarged prostate, interstitial cystitis, and vaginal infection.
Ureaplasma is a type of bacteria, and it is typically treated with antibiotics. Depending on the severity of the infection, a doctor may prescribe a single dose of antibiotics or a longer course of antibiotics. It is important to finish the entire course of antibiotics, even if all symptoms disappear. In some cases, your doctor may also recommend additional treatments, such as lifestyle changes, to help prevent the infection from recurring.
