Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Even after 10 days of doxycycline therapy, if you have burning sensation, probably you are having resistant urinary tract infection.
2. You need to get a repeat urine examination and for the urine sample, culture and sensitivity test is necessary.
3. Stop Doxycycline. Until reports of sensitivity come, another first line UTI therapy drug like nitrofurantoin or ofloxacin needs to be added. After sensitivity tests, appropriate antibiotic needs to be added.
4. Along with medication, take plenty of fluids including fruit juice, cranberry and blueberry juice. Hydration is very important.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
