Brief Answer:
Possible urinary tract infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank you for using Healthcaremagic to post your question.
I read it carefully and I understand your concern.

Cloudy urine may mean dehydration.
But cloudy and smelly urine may mean a urinary tract infection.

Please drink a lot of fluids these days.
Consider doing a urine analysis as soon as possible because if it is a urine infection you will need to take antibiotics.

If you start having any fever, back pain, low abdominal pain- go as soon as possible to see a local physician so you can do what is recommended above and start those antibiotics.

Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.

Regards
Dr.Papaqako
