What Causes Frequent Urination?

My daughter had frequent urge to urinate, with burning when she urinated. She consulted an Urgent Care doctor for a suspected UTI; they took a urine specimen and then prescribed an antibiotic. 3 days later and the Urgent Care called to tell her that she does not have a UTI and should stop taking the antibiotic. My daughter says the the symptoms are almost gone. Should she stop the antibiotic?

Hello.
I think she should stop taking further antibiotics as you revealed she is not experiencing any symptoms now.
However I would like to suggest few tips, as the infection might return if not taken proper care.
1. Ask her to drink plenty of water/fluids.
2. Buttermilk is an immediate relief.
3. Cranberry juice will surely help.
4. Eat non-spicy, non-fried fresh foods.
5. Keep frozen and precooked foods at bay.
6. Add curd in your meals at least two cups a day. Mind it, curd should not be taken at night time.
7. Be hydrated.

I hope this helps.

Thanks
