Hello,

It seems like that you're suffering from Urinary tract infection.
You have taken a course of antibiotic but it still recurred.
What that means is the treatment may not be adequate or the choice of antibiotic may not be correct or it may be a new infection.
Do a urine culture and sensitivity test and choose the antibiotic accordingly.
Take the full course of antibiotic.
Take lot of water.
If the infection recurrs than treat your partner also. He may be a carrier.
I find this answer helpful
