Have UTI. Taking Amoxicillin. Vagina Is Swollen. Remedy?

i have a UTI for a week now and its not getting better, ive been on Amoxicillin for 4 days and it doesnt seem to help. im worried it can develop to a kidney infection . i was having intercourse with my husband and we also noticed that my vagina in the inside is swollen and irritated. what could it be? please help. btw ive had a UTI before but never for this long and at this stage. It doesnt necessarily burn to pee, but a couple times during the day i get the urge to go and cant really pee which becomes painful.

Nephrologist 's  Response
It is quite common for inside of vagina to become sore following sexual intercourse.It normally heals on its own in a few days.Do not apply any detergents or antiseptic directly to the affected area & just wash it with clean tap water & mop it dry.
