After a resistant E. coli urinary infection, a residual or partially treated infection has to be ruled out first, as it can cause a dull ache above the pubic bone and around the flank. However, an ache above the belly button with nausea, along with left hip bone area discomfort, also fits with gastritis or acid reflux and referred musculoskeletal pain, especially after a course of strong antibiotics.
Next Steps
Please repeat a urine routine and urine culture with sensitivity to confirm the infection has cleared, and get an ultrasound of the abdomen and pelvis including the kidneys, ureters and bladder. A CBC and blood sugar are also worth doing. Meanwhile drink 2.5 to 3 litres of water daily, eat small frequent bland meals, and avoid spicy food, alcohol and painkillers such as ibuprofen. Do not start or repeat antibiotics on your own.
Health Tips
See a doctor urgently if you develop fever with chills, back or flank pain, blood in the urine, vomiting or inability to pass urine. You are welcome to share your reports with me on a Practo online consult, or come for an examination at Synergy Multispeciality Hospital, Miraj.

Please book a consultation for examination and appropriate urine and imaging evaluation rather than starting antibiotics yourself.
