Get a urine r/m and culture.
Detailed Answer:
Dear madam,
Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX
Looking into your problem I see that you have already started antibiotics but since you are still having symptoms it is needed to consult a doctor get a CBC , urine r/m and c/s to start the exact antibiotic.
I advise you to drink lot of fluids , use urine alkaliniser like citrosoda XXXXXXX Rest and avoid exertion . Take paracetamol if fever is there .
A USG abdomen will be necessary to rule out any obstruction . A lower abdominal pain is common with UTI.
Take care.
