Hai... First thing is I need the earlier urine reports based on which treatment was started & what about fever & his symptoms like straining at urine or vomiting etc... Moreover 5-6 pus cells alone is not suggestive of urine infection. Other tests in urine like nitrites & leukocyte esterase are very important. Most importantly no antibiotics without a urine culture. Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
