Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts and report of urine examination of your daughter that you have posted it appears that she has acute UTI .

Please get urine culture done to find out the organisms causing this infection and antibiotics to which they are sensitive to.

Please give her broad spectrum antibiotics like Cefexine along with urinary antiseptic like Nitrofurantoin twice daily and urine alkaliser thrice daily.Later on switch on to appropriate antibiotics as per culture report.

Get the prescription of medicines from your family Physician.

Ensure she drinks more water.To keep her urine dilute This will help to control dysuria.
