Why does a urinary tract infection not go away with medication?

Question
I am having pain in my right hip area, since last night until now I feel more throbbing. I don't have any fever, but lying on my right side feels pain, when I tighten my stomach, I also feel pain when I twist my body. A month and a half ago, I went to the doctor and found out that I had a urinary tract infection. The doctor prescribed Domitazol to take 7 days, 3 times a day, 1 tablet. After taking it for 7 days, I still felt pain in my urine, so I went to the store to buy more. They say that Domitazol has to be taken twice to be correct. I took it for 5 more days, the day before yesterday I stopped taking it. Yesterday, I had a condition in my right hip, above my navel, I still felt hot when urinating, but very little or not much. May I ask if this condition is usually caused by a urinary tract infection that has not healed or is there a risk of appendicitis?

Answer
Hi,
If you still have symptoms, you need to see a urologist for a more detailed assessment (including ultrasound to assess kidney stones or fluid retention) ). Chances are you have appendicitis not high.
You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System to get a checkup and get more detailed advice from a specialist doctor.
Thank you for sending questions and concerns to Vinmec. Best regards!
