Brief Answer:
Need testing
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
I recommend him to get a urine microscopy test done to asses whether the infection is limited to the urethral opening or in the upper urinary tract too.
Meanwhile he can take Sodium citrate syrup 10ml mixed in 100ml water twice daily which helps to get rid of the burning urination,
