Brief Answer:
C/S of urine is mandate in your case.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I understand your concern.
You possibly seem to have residual infection.
I advise you to have a complete urine examination with a culture and sensitivity-C/S testing as well.
This can accurately guide us through the right antibiotic to be prescribed.
Since you have not responded to initial trial of antibiotics ,its not wise to prescribe another antibiotic without C/S report.This can lead to emergence of resistance strains.
Review with Culture and Sensitivity report.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
