Hi,
As this problem is since long it requires evaluation of her case.
Urine culture will give causative organisms and antibiotic medicine working against this organism.
After report your doctor will go for long specific antibiotic medicine course.
Go for ultra sound of kidneys as well to rule out any problem in her kidneys.
Ok and take care.
