Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
hi there, you do suffer from UTI but taking a drug for the condition over the counter is not a good practice. You need to get a routine and microscopic urine examination done and if required get a culture and sentivity also done, accordingly visit a doctor and get the suitable antibiotic prescribed and contiue it for the full course. You may get symptomatic relief by taking plenty of fluids and syp citralka, and take care.
