Can anyone please help me, or have you experienced this?

Question

A few weeks ago I ended up getting a Urinary Tract Infection, i'd never had one before so didn't know what it was, and didn't also realise that thrush commonly follows afterwards, I didn't actually goto the doctor, but I got the one pill you swallow from the chemist for like $25. It's a few days later (3-4) and the infection has cleared, and I tried having s*x with my boyfriend and it was so swollen and painful.. The swelling hasn't really gone down yet, has anyone else had this? I think I am swollen inside, because when I goto the bathroom afterwards it stings more than I've ever felt in my life! Anyone have any idea? (Sorry I forgot to mention that I took an antibiotic for both the UTI and the Thrush, am just wondering why i'm still sore and painful!)

Answer 1

Get medical attention ASAP....it could be something else.  

Answer 2

Antibiotics have to be taken regularly with out breaks until the cycle is complete.

If they were not taken completely the original infection might have gotten worse.

The symptoms could be a number of diagnosis. The best answer would be after a visual exam. Go  get checked out by the urologist.

Answer 3

Well, that UTI could have gotten worse. Or you could be getting a bladder infection. You really need to go see a doc. If it's left untreated, or doesn't go away, it will eventually end up to be a kidney infection. I;ve had those and they suck!! It could also be a bad yeast infection.

Answer 4

go to the doctor

Answer 5

Try cranberry juice and plenty of water on a regular basis and yogurt it should help and also keep these problem away. and wait to have s*x until it is cleared up.
