gynaecology

I woke up this morning and I felt like going to ease myself. But while I was urinating, I was feeling a kind of sensation, like pain but not so painful. A kind of ssensation that I kind of felt like I was enjoying. And also, I've been going to pee more often than usual. I think its a kind of infection. Please what can I use?

Hi there,
Increased frequency of urination, pain while urinating, pain in lower abdomen, fever are few of the common symptoms of a urinary tract infection. Drink lots of water and fluids. See a doctor if the symptoms persist or are severe. A urine examination will be helpful in diagnosing a urine infection. If it is an infection antibiotics may be prescribed. Do write to me again on how you are doing.
Best of luck!

Thank you very much. I've gone to see the doctor and I'm currently on antibiotics. But I'm feeling a lot better. Thank you.

There's something I want to clarify. The doctor gave me antibiotic and ibuprofen for pain. I was having this back pain (pain in the lower part of spine), I was also having pain on my scalp. When I started using the ibuprofen, I felt like the pain on my back increased. Since then I've been trying ti do some exercise so that it can relieve me but its not. Please what exactly is the problem.
