Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

According to your information, it may be due to Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) or any metabolic disorder.

I suggest you to undergo one ROUTINE urine examination and CULTURE test to rule out underlying pathological agent. Do check your blood sugar (PPBS).

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, revert back to me or consult with local doctor following test report.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
