Hi,
Welcome to XXXXXXX and thanks for your query.
Problem - UTI
Appropriate antibiotics need to be given based on the new culture report.
The biopsy report needs to be seen.
Problem - Anal pain
Kindly see to that you are not constipated.
If the pain persists, local problem inside the anus needs to be ruled out by a surgeon or gastro- enterologist.
It is unlikely that TURP is the reason for the anal pain.
wishing you good health---
