Hello, Your daughter should have a urine sample sent to the lab for a culture to see if any bacteria grow. If bacterial grow then the lab will also test the sample to see which antibiotic would be a good choice. A germ called E. coli is the most common, and it is treated with Bactrim. But the Bactrim is given for 7 days, or sometimes even 3 days, not usually 1 month. But there are other germs that can cause an infection and pain, and sometimes they will respond better to other antibiotics, so she needs the test. In the meantime, increase her water intake to see if that helps with the odor. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
