Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your symptoms seem to be related to a urinary tract infection.

I suggest you to do a complete blood count and a urine test to confirm the diagnosis.

If the diagnosis is confirmed I recommend to use antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice a day for five days.

It is a prescribed medication, so you should consult your doctor before this treatment.

I also recommend to use anti-inflammatory medication to relieve the symptoms such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three tablets a day.

I suggest you to drink liquids and especially cranberry juice.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
