Your father has developed what we call epidydmorchitis (infection and swelling of the testes). He will require injectable antibiotics, you should show him to a surgeon / urologist for further treatment without wasting time.

Actually, nitrofurantine is used for urinary infection, and should be taken for 1 month. But better go for urine culture and sensitivity and proper antibiotics should be used. I also advise for complete blood count. Sonography also should be done. There may be other infection or non infectious fever. I advice investigations and then you can ask in private quitions.

UTI is generally treated aggressively during pregnancy. Please follow instruction of your gynaecologist as advised.
There should be gap of 5-6 hrs between iron and calcium tablets. Rest of the medication can be taken at your convenience.
Try to take nitrofurantoin at the same time everyday to maintain constant therapeutic level of the drug.
