Feeling the need to urinate in the urethral area, and trimethoprim 300mg got rid of it-why? when the urine analysis came back clear of utis?

UTI: It is possible you did have UTI but the culture was not properly done or that it was too low of an organism count ....Possibly other microbiological causes. The main thing is the trimethoprim helped you. Be well.
