Why do I have pain AFTER urinating?

For the last few days I've had a sharp burning AFTER I finish urinating.  The burning lasts a few minutes and then is gone until the next time I go.  I've had a yeast infection before and the burning is similar to that, but yeast infections pretty much always burn, with redness, itching and discharge and I dont have any of that. Just the 2-3 minutes of pain after urinating.  What do you think it is?

I've had sex with only one person, and neither of us have cheated. I've had 2 UTI's within the past 2 years. It's burning again only now when I'm almost done urinating. My doctor gave me some antibiotics the last time I had a UTI and I'm taking them now since I had some left over, but they're not working. It's been hurting for almost over two weeks. Is it just another UTI or something else??

Hi,
Painful urination  or dysuria can be caused by: a bladder or urinary tract infection, sexually transmitted diseases, yeast infection, kidney or bladder stones, or sensitivity to certain soaps or perfumes. To reach a diagnosis, a complete medical history, physical examination and some tests such as a urinalysis is usually indicated. Your treatment will depend on the cause of your condition. Infections are usually treated with antibiotics.Take care and keep us posted.
