Hello there if your urine culture is showing bacteria in it that means you are currently having active UTI which will be treated based on the culture reports i.e which organism is abundant and antibiotic will be give targeting that organism cause of uti can be many such as unhygeinic enviorment active sexual life and many more

Treatment is aimed at clearing the infection and relieving symptoms: 1. Antibiotics – prescribed based on urine culture (to know which bacteria & which antibiotic works best). • Commonly used: Nitrofurantoin 100 mg twice daily for 5–7 days, Cefixime 200 mg twice daily for 5 days, or Ciprofloxacin/Levofloxacin (used only if resistant strains, and under doctor’s advice). 2. Pain / burning relief – Urinary alkalizer (sodium citrate solution or potassium citrate) to reduce burning sensation. 3. Hydration – Drink plenty of water (2–3 liters/day unless restricted for another medical reason). 4. Follow-up urine test – to ensure infection has cleared. Prevention of future UTIs • Stay well hydrated. • Don’t hold urine for long; empty bladder regularly. • Wipe front to back after using the toilet. • Urinate after sexual activity. • Avoid harsh soaps/douches in the genital area. • For recurrent UTIs, sometimes doctors give low-dose preventive antibiotics or advise cranberry extract / D-mannose. Since you’ve had symptoms for 15 days, I’d strongly recommend you get a urine culture and sensitivity test if not done already — this guides the exact antibiotic needed.

A normal scan and blood test are reassuring, but bacteria and blood in your urine test confirm a urinary tract infection (UTI). UTIs usually occur due to bacterial entry into the urinary tract, often from dehydration, poor hygiene, or sexual activity. Treatment generally includes a course of antibiotics prescribed by a doctor, increased water intake, and sometimes urinary alkalizers, so it’s best to follow up with a urologist or physician for the right medication and prevention advice.

Presence of bacteria and blood in your urine, even when your other tests are normal, suggests you might have a urinary tract infection (UTI) still lingering. The bacterial presence confirms that an infection is present, and the blood could stem from the irritation or inflammation caused by the bacteria in the urinary tract lining. Treatment typically involves a course of antibiotics targeted towards the specific type of bacteria identified in the urine culture. Your doctor might adjust or change the antibiotic if the previous treatment was not fully effective. This tailored approach ensures the specific bacteria causing the infection are eradicated. It’s essential to complete the entire course of antibiotics even if symptoms start improving earlier. Staying hydrated is crucial, as drinking plenty of water helps flush out bacteria from the urinary tract. Over-the-counter pain relievers may be recommended if you’re experiencing discomfort or pain, but it’s important to follow the doctor’s advice on this. You should avoid irritants such as caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods, which can exacerbate symptoms. In some cases, if a kidney infection is suspected, more aggressive treatment or hospitalization might be necessary. If you notice symptoms like fever, chills, back pain, or vomiting, these might be signs of a more serious infection requiring immediate medical attention. Regularly monitoring symptoms and communicating with your healthcare provider throughout the treatment period is important to ensure you receive the appropriate care and make a complete recovery. Make sure you have follow-up appointments to retest the urine and check if the infection has resolved.
