Hi,
It seems from your complaints that you may be having complicated UTI.

You can have a course of antibiotics like cefixime and azithromycin ,
an alkaliser ,
an a probiotic for long term use(helps in prevention of uti).

Drink plenty of oral fluids,
maintain personal hygiene.

Urine tests if not done appropriately may at times give false positive results.So,it has to be ruled out from history and proper clinical examination.

Take care
