Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Thick pus like discharge from penis and discomfort in urination indicates Urinary Tract Infection. You have rightly started in antibiotics and kindly complete the course.
If the infection is severe, it takes some more time for the discharge to reduce and finally stop.
Drink plenty of fluids. Consume citrus fruit juices to keep your urine more alkaline.
Get well soon. All the best.
