Hi there. Thank you for posting your question here on XXXXXXX

You have got a urinary tract infection (UTI) for whatever reason. UTI is common enough in sexually active females. In males however, it is far less common and always has to be taken seriously.

For a start you will need a urinalysis and urine culture to identify the bug. Ask your health care provider for a sterile container for you to collect what's called a 'mid stream urine sample'. This will at least identify the bacteria and suggest the appropriate antibiotic treatment.

But that's only for starters. You may then need further tests to ascertain why you got this infection in the first place. It is a bit of a "journey" but chances are that you will be fine and that there is nothing too serious underlying this UTI of yours.

I hope this has been helpful and that you can accept this answer. Here is to your continuing good health!
