You should turn to clinic

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for your query to healthcare magic.
I have read your question carefully and understand your health issue.

Meanwhile you are symptomatic (have urethral discharge again) after treatment you have done you should call your doctor to return to clinic for a second regimen of treatment.
You should treat again because urethral infection can cause side effect up to infertility.

Hope I have answered your question and please feel free for further discussion.

Detailed Answer:
Hi again !

After treatment symptoms should clear up .
But if symptoms persist as to you it means that the infection isn't cured .
It means that you may need a second course of antibiotics or it is a viral infection.

Hence you should call to your follow-up doctor .

Hope I have been helpful and please feel free for further discussion.

Hi and thanks for your query to healthcare magic .

It is not normal to have urethral discharge after treatment ,therefore I write you to call your follow-up doctor.
I mean viral infection ,because if symptoms persist after treatment we think that it may be a viral infection,and you may need antiviral treatment .

Hope I have answered your question and please feel free for further discussion.
