Brief Answer:
You need antibiotics for this

Detailed Answer:
Hi, Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
I am Dr Deepak S Jois answering your query

I understand your condition. Do not get panic.

You have urinary tract infection and as your culture is positive for staphylococcus aureus, you need to take antibiotics against this organism for at least 07 days for cure.
A sensitivity test for the organism would have helped to chose an antibiotic against this organism in case of resistance.

Anyways you can continue to take your medication which your doctor has already prescribed you along with plenty of fluids. Use protection in case of intercourse and go for a follow up with your doctor if not relieved by your symptoms by 02-03 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Please let me know if I can be of any help. All the best.
