Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.Your urine has more puss cells and your pain while urination gives the impression of urinary tract infection.So your doctor has started on antibiotics.Usually i also give my patients antibiotics like norfloxacin empirically and send urine for culture and sensitivity and change antibiotic if necessary.So when your culture results come you can know about what bacteria causing it and whether the antibiotic you are taking is effective or not.I also recommend my patients to take barley water or cranberry juice to alkalinise urine.Wishing you speedy recovery.
Let me know if you have any further query.
