hi
its unfortunate to hve pseudomonas infection. But old age,low immunity and diabetes are causing the problems. Hope his blood sugar levels are in control.

HI
ITS NOT GOOD TO HAVE A URINARY INFECTION 3 MONTHS AFTER TURP. A BLADDER WASH DONE REGUARLY WILL HELP DRAIN OUT THE INFECTIVE ORGANISMS EARLY. VINEGAR CAN BE USED BUT WITH PRECAUTION AND UNDER MEDICAL SUPERVISION.

psuedomonas infections are known to get cured pretty late. maintaining high immunity,drinking plenty of water,hydrotherapy and frequent change of antibiotics should help. vinegar can be used safely. If blood sugar levels are raised then it may take even more time to heal
