Brief Answer:
A urine culture will help.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Typically, the condition is managed by an urosurgeon or nephrologist. You need urine culture and sensitivity test along with an Ultrasound of KUB region. The test result will be helpful in planning further medical management. On most occasions antibiotic therapy is necessary.

In addition you should take extra care of personal hygiene of the perineal region. Also drink lots of water daily.

I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.

Regards
