Hello and welcome to HCM,
Time period required for culture of micro-organisms to grow varies with different micro-organisms.
The time period varies from as short as 72 hours to as long as 4 weeks.
It is not clear from your history that which organisms is being grown.
Anyways you can wait for some more time to get the culture report.

Thanks and take care
