Hi,

Looking at your description it seems to be a very much treatable condition so you need not to worry. I would advise you to take anti acidity medicine like pantoprazole or ranitidine group of drugs with antacids for 4-5 days.
You should avoid fatty fried spicy and junk food and carbonated beverages.you should take lots of fluids orally which will help by flushing off the urogenital tract, That will clear the mild urine infection.If it doesn't help than I would advise you for a battery of investigation like like urine culture, ultrasound, X-ray LS spine and an endoscopy if need be.

Hope this answers your question, please feel free to ask for follow up question I will be happy to help you.

Best wishes,
Dr. B R Hudda
