Brief Answer:
Urine alkaliser, but if symptoms of infection: antibiotics required

Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. As you have reported only a burning sensation and not other symptoms like a fever, chills, frequent urination, increased urge to urinate but less urine passed, vaginal discharge, etc; I recommend the use of a urine alkaliser:

1. Uriliser syrup 2 tsp three times a day
2. Drink plenty of water
3. Avoid sexual contact and/or masturbation completely
4. Drink cranberry juice as tolerated

I hope you find my response helpful. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.

Best wishes.

Brief Answer:
Your doctor might not prescribe antibiotics to you easily

Detailed Answer:
Hello once again ma'am.

Your doctor will look for symptoms like vaginal discharge, and/or bleeding, chills, fever, etc; before prescribing you an antibiotic.

Unfortunately this forum does not permit me to send you a prescription, but I can tell you the name of the antibiotic if you can get your hands on it.

Tablet norfloxacin 200 mg to be taken twice daily (after breakfast and after dinner), along with the above 4 recommendations from my previous response.

I hope you find my response helpful, and my sincere apologies for the delay as I have been travelling. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with, please do not hesitate to ask.

Best wishes.
