Brief Answer:
urine culture / sensitivity test is required.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
It will be more helpful if you mention any medicines you are taking.
After reading your post, it seems that you might be having infection of the urinary tract ( UTI ). I would suggest a urine culture / sensitivity test along with blood investigations like Kidney Function Test ( KFT ) and Complete Blood Count ( CBC ). Further can be planned according to the reports of the above mentioned investigations. I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Thanks.
