Hello
Thanks for query.
Based on the facts that you have posted I think you have developed UTI after surgery of Bilateral PCNL for removal of stones in kidneys.

In most of the cases of stones in kidney there is infection in center of the stones and fragmentation of stones results in to bacteria being liberated in general circulation causing infection (UTI).

This is common sequel after PCNL .

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 and take appropriate antibiotic as per culture report.

Ensure to drink more water .This will help to flush out the debris from the kidneys.
