thank you for using our service I read your question in detail I will try to reach you with my medical advice. A dark and full smelling urine most likely secondary to urinary track infection. The best way to treat any urine infection is identify the bacteria that is giving it. You can get a sample of your urine and send it for urinary analysis and culture and identify that bacteria and how susceptible is that bacteria the certain antibiotics. Sometimes we're giving antibiotics that the bacteria is not sensitive to it and that is why The patient doesn't get better. Drinking a lot of water and adding cramberry juice will help to avoid infection.
I hope that my medical advise have been helpful. Dr. JC
