Brief Answer:
Mild UTI

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I understand your concern.

This reflects mild urinary tract infection/UTI.

This can be resolved with ease with oral antibiotics.

I generally recommend my patients oral tablets of Fluconazole(single dose) and Norfloxacin to my patients.Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe them to you.

Drink plenty of water..3 to 4 liters/day.

Cranberry juice will help to prevent such infections.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
