Hi, many thanks for the query!
Tuberculosis of the urinary tract causes sterile pyuria (plenty of pus cells in urine but with negative urine culture)
You need to do- Urine examination for TB (RT-PCR), CBC, RFT, X-ray KUB,
also Urine (Culture & Sensitivity) and as per the report, start antibiotics by parenteral route if needed with your Urologist's opinion.
If urine report is positive for TB, then AKT should be started immediately with your doctor's opinion.
Also do- Blood Sugar Level & if diabetic, good control of blood sugar is necessary while treating UTI.
Wish you a good health.
Take care.
Regards.
