What Causes Concentrated Urine With Solid Particles In It?

I have a rash on my back that resembles acne in fact that i what i thought it was. I have a pressure on my left side about where my ribcage starts. I have been urinating a decent amount but it seems concentrated and seems to have something in it like white sand. I thought it was just bubbles but under further inspection it seems there's something solid in my urine. It was thought i have kidney stones, but when i went to the emergency room i urinated and the doctor thinks we lost the stone. So, its unclear if i have stones or not. He put me on antibiotics for 3 days. (2 pills for 3 days) and he sent me on my way. What should i do? should i get an x-ray or get checked for a UTI? My doctor told me i have a "high concentration of bacteria in my urine" if that helps what-so-ever?

Nephrologist 's  Response
Turbid urine could be due to urine infection. But in your case it is mandatory to rule out kidney stones for which best investigation is CT scan. Consult your nephrologist for further workup. But don't worry. Everything settles in a matter of weeks. All the best. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
