Hello dear,
The symptoms as mentioned in your post, in addition to detection of pus cells in urine can be attributed to Urinary tract infection.
The treatment involves:
1. Drinking lots of water
2. Antibiotics based on culture & sensitivity reports.
3. If there is associated fever, then paracetamol 500 mg three times in a day can be added.
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.
5. Avoid acidic foods, carbonated drinks and alcohol...& maintain good hygiene.
Wishing a good health.
Take care.
