If the pain comes back, uristat (over the counter) will take care of it.

Thanks for the replies i really apreciate it.  Heres the update, I dont think the infection was at its full course. As soon as i started drinking the cranberry juice the pain subsided, Also i got some cranberry pills and those also seem to work.  It has been 4 days now since I have felt the burning sensation and the constant need to pee.  I have looked up some of the s/sx of UTI and if the burning sensation returns, if start having any lower back pains I will definately go to the doctor!  Thanks again for your replies I really really appreciated them and took your advices.

go to your local drug store and buy the AZO cranberry tablets for bladder infections ASAP. They are made specifically for bladder infections. It is all natural (safe to use) and it works. I am prone to bladder and yeast infections and I swear by AZO. Keep drinking the cranberry juice and plenty of water. But the AZO pills will take care of the problem, and about 20 minutes after the first dose the constant "need" to go and uncomfortablness accompanied with urination will cease. IT DOES discolor your urine, so do not be alarmed when you go to use the restroom and your urine is orange or red, its just the tablets doing their job.

You need to go to the doc. If you have a kidney infection it can get really serious. Also you might have a bladder infection, which needs antibiotics to help treat it. I am a self pay patient and am usually able to work a payment plan out with our docs. good luck!

hi  well im only 17  but that happens to me alot and its probably a urinary tract infection  i find drinking water  helps  but  i know its realy annoying  but i just relax in bed for a day  with a hot water bottle on my lower stomach i srink lots and lots of water  an i  mean tonns  i do not eat for that  day because some foods depending who you are can cause it to get worse  so i dont realy eat anything  just drink alot of water. i usually feel better within the next day.  but i know they can be really bad and make your day horrible also  if it is possible i would go to a doc because it can travel up and  cause mor damage   but if you   feel  better  i usually do  then i wouldnt worry   but if it stays for a long time i would even say liek a week i would try and see a doc .   also cotten panties  help way more  then anything i found  put on loose fitting clothes and cotten undies for a day
