Hi recurrent UTI are common in childhood due to a condition called vesico ureteral reflux. In this condition pus in kidneys is common and scientifically it is called as pyelonephritis. Timed urinary voiding for every 3 hours and citrus juice intake may be helpful. All the best. if you have any questions feel free to contact me.
