Burns While Urinating. Infection Found In Urinalysis, Gave UTI Pills. It Still Burns . Why?

Hi, Im 16 years old and it burns when i pee. I went to a walk in clinic and they tested my urine and said there was definitely an infection, therefore they gave me uti pills, however they put me on these pills for a week, the week is up and it still burns to pee. But not as bad as it did when i first started taking the pills. What should I do

Hello,
It is possible to feel burning for few days,even after urinary infection is gone.
Just take plenty of water.
Take some craneberry juice 2-3 times a day.
Take 1 tsf of baking soda in one cup of water,twice a day.It would alkalise your urine.
Wait for a week and if symptoms persist,then get a urinalysis and a urine culture done to look for the infection.If infection is present,then antibiotic may be taken according to urine culture report.
Thanks
