UTI symptoms lingering after antibiotics?

Question

I have one more day of antibiotics to finish. The nurse practitioner that prescribed them to me told me to come back if the symptoms do not get better. I feel 10x better, however I still get burning once in a while and urgency. Can UTI symptoms linger after you finish the antibiotics but eventually go away, or should I go back to be looked at?

Answer

I would definitely go back.

Answer

Honestly, It is far more likely that you just have a stubborn strain of bacteria that needs a little higher or longer dose of antibiotics..

Answer

It means that your body was resistant towards the antibiotics. You need to make another appointment and get a culture done and have them write you another prescription.
