Question

How do I get rid of E. coli in a urinary tract?

Hi I am Vimal. I had pre marital sex one year back. I took all the tests and they were negative. But still I have pain in the lower abdomen and penile pain while urinating. I also have white discharge from the penis. I feel I may be affected with an STD. Please check my report and give me clear guidance? Thank you.
