7-10 days: is the estimated time for resolution of your infection; however, you did not state which medicines you are taking.

See doctor again: Was your urine cultured. If not they are just guessing. If the antibiotics were effective you should be symptom free in 2 days. Kidney infections in young males are very unusual. Look for another cause.
