For a urinary tract infection (UTI), you will need a prescription antibiotic, such as nitrofurantoin, after a doctor evaluates a urine sample. For your foot pain, temporary relief can be found using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Crucially, make sure to inform your doctor about your foot pain before they prescribe a UTI medication. Certain antibiotics, specifically fluoroquinolones (like ciprofloxacin), carry risks of tendon inflammation and rupture, and should generally be avoided if you already have tendon or foot issues. Please see a doctor promptly for a safe prescription.
