The doctor performed a physical on me, and told me I have a UTI, but after finishing my medication 3 weeks later, it still hasnt gone away. Should I worry if it may be a bigger problem or if I just need to get more medication? Yes I am sexually active, but we are both clean.
Dear Friend. Welcome to Chat Doctor. I am Chat Doctor.  I have read your query in detail. Furthermore, I understand your concern. Persistent UTI requires evaluation. Many a time there is some precipitating cause for infection like Stones in urinary tract. You should get following investigations:1. Ultrasound KUB2. Urine R/M3. Urine C/S4. Serum Uric Acid levels5. Urine for AFB. I would be able to help you better if you could give me your detailed history and share your reports with me. This is my best advice for you based on available details. If you have any further query please ask me. Stay Healthy. ChatDoctor, MD
