dear parent,
from the details you have given, it looks like your daughter has grade 1 vesico ureteric reflux.
she needs primary treatment of uti,which is already been started with augmentin.Further she needs a detailed evaluation in the form of a DMSA scan and monthly urine culture. antibiotics needs to be given prophylactically everyday according to culture reports. VUR of grade 1 should subside in some months to year. however with repeat mcug if the reflux does not subside deflux injection may be considered.
thank you
