Respected user , Hi

Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly .

* Heavy urinary tract infection , as mentioned here is taken care with IV
antibiotics and patient is on oral medications at present .

* Now as per the clinical recovery phase , need of USG and MCU is
acceptable for definite pathology evaluation , but I disagree with the
DMSA scan at this point of time .

* Best management guidelines are carried out with culture report of urine
not mentioned here but I think must have done , if not done required .
* Rest continue to maintain hydration with plenty of liquids , continue
current medications .

Hope this clears your query .
Wishing your Angel fine recovery .

Regards .
