I'm really not sure whether to take my son to the doctors tomorrow or not and thought there might be someone out there who could advise.
I think he may have a UTI, but the symptoms are very subtle and I am led to believe that UTIs are very rare in small boys (he is 2.9), and there is a distinct possibility that I am over worrying as we are going away for a month on Saturday so really if I am going to take him to the doctors I need to do it tomorrow.
So - symptoms are: he has been weeing a bit more than usual for the past few days, 3-4 times unable to hold it until we get to the loo (though he has only been potty trained for a couple of months, so this could be a back slide).
This afternoon when he woke from his nap he had a mental tantrum (which is unlike him, but not unheard of) and once he'd calmed down he said his willy hurt.
A couple of times since then he's said his willy hurt when he had a wee, but I did ask if it hurt and he said yes. I also asked if his back/head/tummy/knee hurt and he said yes to all though...!
Just got a feeling something is not right. But there is no temperature, he generally seems ok otherwise, not tired or ill in himself.
WWYD - doctors or am I being silly?
