Detailed answer...
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms point towards urine infection.
Ideally you should send your urine sample for routine analysis and culture and then start tablet CEFIXIME 200 mg twice a day along  with urinary alkaliser like syrup ALKACITRON 2 tsf three times a day with one cup of water. This is the protocol which we follow in our routine practice.
This antibiotic can be changed according to the culture report which you would get after 72 hours. Take the antibiotic course for 7-10 days.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
