Hello,

As per your history, it will be urinary tract infection. You can do urine analysis and urine culture sensitivity test. Ultrasound abdomen and pelvis can be done to diagnose causes of recurrent Urinary Tract Infection (UTI).

Recurrent UTI may be because of:
1) Improper hygiene
2) Bladder stone
3) Recurrent bladder infection
4) Incomplete treatment

You can take syrup Cital 10 ml, tablet Flavoxate after consultation. Keep yourself well hydrated, and maintain proper hygiene. I will suggest you to review here with detailed history or consult with the urologist with reports.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale
