You will want to go to the doctor to find out if it's a UTI or not.  You can get them without having had sexual intercourse.  Fingering, oral, or even wiping the wrong direction can push bacteria into the urethra and cause a UTI.  UTIs can and will progress to a bladder and kidney infection if left untreated, and you will need an antibiotic.

Are you urinating frequently on top of the pain?  Any blood?  Also symptoms of a UTI.

No I don't have to use the bathroom frequently and no blood. Just painful, even when I'm not going to the bathroom.
