Hello,
UTI is not yet cured. Pus cell should not exceed 5 cell in a normal person.
uncontrolled diabetes is the commonest cause of recurrent UTI'S.
In this situation I would advice my patient to check the blood sugar levels and keep it under control. Secondly to do an urine culture and sensitivity testto choose the best antibiotic treatment.
Ultrasound of the KUB to rule out infection of the kidney and bladder.
