UTI: Effectiveness of therapy depends upon the organism causing the UTI and its sensitivity to the antibiotics you are receiving. Suggest continuing what you have been prescribed and call your treating doctor and discuss the pain with them. You may just need a pain killer for a few days, but without seeing you and having more info it is very difficult to say. Good luck.

Here are some ...: Your fast response to what you used - which is more than what one usually needs, if the offending bug is sensitive to antibiotics. But the pace of complete symptomatic resolution may vary among individuals; so it's okay to wait and see as long as being slowly but surely getting better day by day. If not completely cleared, seek re-evalutiaon for diagnostic confirmation and counseling for further.
