A member asked:
I took antibiotics for my uti, 7 day treatment. but i think it is back. why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need culture: Sometimes the antibiotic chosen is not effective so it only partially treats the infection. You need to see a doctor and give a urine sample. They needs to send this for culture and sensitivity to make sure you get treated with the correct antibiotic next time.
