Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to a urinary tract infection.
I suggest to do a urine test to confirm the diagnosis.
Meanwhile,I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms.
I also suggest to drink liquids and especially cranberry juice.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
