Hi, are you not in a position to take him to the nearby city. Now he may need to have M.R.I. for confirmation, and culture and sensitivity of the urine for possible organisms causing infection, and its sensitivity to drugs in order of preference. He may need to have treatment with a psychologist as well.
Thank you.
