Hello and welcome to HCM,
Lower back pain, frequent urination, burning sensation and foul smelling urine is suggestive of urinary tract infection (UTI).
You need to get urine examination - routine examination and microscopic examination.
Routine urine examination will determine whether infection is present in urine or not.
If infection is detected, an urine culture will be required to isolate the causative micro-organism.
Urine culture will be followed by antibiotic sensitivity to select most appropriate antibiotic effective against the micro-organism.
Thus, I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment, prescription of urine examination and treatment thereafter.

Thanks and take care
Dr Shailja Puri
