Are you beu=ing trated with an antibiotic? Azo over the counter is great for helping with the buring and cramping pain but you must treat it with a anti-biotic if you hare not being treated call you doctor now and they will prescribe an anbtibiotic. They can not dip it now becauce your urine is probably orange alreay from the Azo. So call you doctor they are on call 24/7 and with mostly always treat a UTI on a weekend over the phone. I hope this helps I get them all the time and they are not much fun. I Hope this helps and I hope you start feeling better soon. Good Luck and God
Bless Barb
