Is urine culture and sensitivity test report helpful for future to use antibiotics? There is an antibiotics list given in the report. Should we use only these antibiotics for UTI in future?

Urine culture with sensitivity helps choose the right antibiotic for a current UTI. However, bacteria and resistance patterns may change, so do not reuse the same antibiotics without a new test if symptoms return. Use antibiotics only when prescribed.

My son 6 years old is suffering from fever for the past 2 days. His urine report states albumin positive, pus cells 4 to 6, RBCs 1 to 2, and amorphous deposits positive. What does it mean?

Please review the attached urine report. I have been experiencing chronic stomach pain for over a month, with constant discomfort throughout the day and difficulty eating due to the pain.

I have taken multiple antibiotics, and later my urine report showed normal results. However, I still feel like the infection is present. Today, I did another urine routine test and have attached the report. Kindly review it and advise further.
