Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Possible bladder infection.
2. Get urine microscopy done. If positive for infection, culture and sensitivity necessary for identification of appropriate antibiotic.
3. Possible stone evaluation necessary, get an ultrasound abdomen done.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
