Hello dear,
The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be attributed to
Urinary tract infection.
The reason for persistence of UTI can be due to:
1. Inadequate duration of treatment
2. Inappropriate dosage of the medications
3. Inappropriate selection of antibiotics against the causative organism.
4. Improper treatment of underlying cause of the UTI.
Under such circumstances, the following corrective measures should be taken:
1. Discuss regarding the adequate duration of treatment with the treating physician.
2. Discuss regarding the proper dosage of medications depending on age and body weight.
3. Culture & sensitivity of the urine to be done for selection of appropriate antibiotic.
4. Additional investigations like
X ray KUB (
Kidney Ureter & Bladder) and
Ultrasound scan of abdomen & pelvis will be helpful in detecting any hidden focus of infection in the Genito urinary tract.
Wishing your son a good health.
Take care.
