Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have UTI which is likely to be associated with stone either in kidney or ureter.

Please get your routine urine test and urine culture done to find out the organisms causing this infection and antibiotics to which they are sensitive to.

Ultrasound scanning of abdomen will help to rule out presenceof urinary stone.

Please take broad spectrum antibiotics like Cefexine along with urinary antiseptic like Nitrofurantoin twice daily and urine alkaliser thrice daily.Later on switch on to appropriate antibiotics as per culture report.

Get the prescription of medicines from your family Physician.
