UTI: It sounds like you may still have symptoms of a UTI (urinary tract infection), which can include frequency, burning, foul odor, lower abdominal pain, or fatigue. I would advise you to go to see a medical provider and have your urine undergo a urinalysis.

Yes: See your doctor and get an urinalysis and possibly a urine culture. If this is indicative of an infection then antibiotics are indicated.
