As you know we are not doctors on here. But from the sounds of it you could either have a Kidney Infection if you have side cramps that come along with it. Or a URI. You should probably see a doctor because its better to be safe than sorry! thanx :)

yea that sounds like a UTI (urinary tract infection) go see a doctor and your doctor can prescribe an antibiotic for you and it will clear up in a day or two. dont get too worried. just see your doctor and everything should be fine. but if you dont see your doctor and it gets worse and worse it could lead to a bladder or kidney infection. so just get checked out as soon as possible. good luck. hope you feel better and i hope i was some sort of help for you.

It does sound like that might be a UTI or Bladder infection... I used to get them all the time.
While cranberry juice is good for you, and will help with that, you have to drink a lot of it and sometimes it's just not enough. Plus it takes time, at least for me. One time I drank cranberry juice constantly, and I still ended up going to the emergency room with the infection.
That was then, this is now. NOW I know of a sure-fire cure for Urinary Tract Infections, Bladder infections, etc... and I'm totally not BSing you here. Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE). I take this stuff, and the symptoms are gone within 24 hours. It's amazing!
Get the liquid, not the pills. The stuff I use is this brand:

And you can read this site for info on all of the other things GSE is good for:

For an infection, I use 15 drops mixed in water (drink it fast, it's kind of bitter), 3 times a day. It may be tempting to just take it for a day because you feel so much better, but take these doses for at least 3 days. Just like with medication, you should take the full treatment or it might come back.
GSE is anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-parasitical. Yet, it's safe for us. It's so good at killing bad things, they are starting to use it in hospitals for surgery prep, because it does a better job than alcohol!
It also purifies water, so it's a good thing to have in any emergency survival kit, plus being useful for treating wounds and such (diluted). Never use it full strength unless you are using it on a wart. (yes, it dissolves warts).
I also used it in our pet's water to treat worms, etc.
Everybody should have this in their home. You may even have a local health food store that has it stocked.

Consulting a doctor would be the best thing..Explain to your doctor whats going on and how long it has been going on..
The doctor will most likely give you some sort of medicine to clear that up..

It sounds as if you have a UTI(Urinary Tract Infection) like cystitis, (which I suffered from intermittently throughout my childhood and early teens). Go to the doctor, who'll prescribe you a course of medicine. Until then, drink plenty-cranberry juice is excellent for cystitis. You want to flush the infection out of your system, plus if you drink more, you'll have more urine which is more comfortable than having that tiny little amount.
Good luck.

i know exactly what your talking about. it is possible you got a Urinary Tract Infection. This can be because you waited to long to go pee, or its not clean. i recommend to wash yourself and to drink a lot of cranberry juicy, and buy the cranberry juicy pills they sell at natural food stores. if this doesn't work go to a doc. see what they recomend.

You should go to the doctors and get a check up. You could have a bladder infection.

Since someone else covered the urinary track infection I will comment on another common infection that can happen for women after they have sex. Women can develop an infection in their bladder because the opening of the urethra (the tube that leads to the bladder) is very close to the opening of the vagina and after sex some semen can enter the urethra, go into the bladder and cause an infection. This infection of the bladder is called cystitis. Symptoms can include feeling the need to pee all the time, after peeing feeling as if you need to go again straight away, experiencing pain or a stinging feeling while peeing, sometimes a dull ache in the lower back or even some blood being passed with the urine. The easiest way to prevent cystitis is to always pee after having sex. This flushes out any semen that may have gone into the bladder and prevents an infection from happening. Also it is important to drink plenty of water (your body weight in oz.) daily so that the bladder is always being flushed out and infections do not have an opportunity to develop. The important thing is to get some treatment, which will probably be a course of antibiotics. Infections that are untreated can move up to the kidneys and cause permanent damage, so, no matter which infection it is it is very important to see your doctor or go to your local clinic right away.
Namaste!

It is most likely a urinary tract infection. Contact your gynocologist so that you can get medicine right away. I also heard cranberry juice will take a urinary tract infection away, so drink up!!

Urinary Tract Infections - UTI

Causes - Symptoms - Treatments
The urinary tract is the body's filtering system for removal of liquid wastes. Women are especially susceptible to bacteria which may invade the urinary tract and multiply resulting in infection.
Although most urinary tract infections (UTI) are not serious, they are painful. Approximately fity percent of all women will have at least one UTI in her lifetime with many women having several infections throughout their lifetime. Fortunately, these infections are easily treated with antibiotics that cause the symptoms to quickly disappear. Some women seem are more prone to repeated infections than others and for them it can be a frustrating battle.
What Causes Urinary Tract Infections?
The most common cause of UTI is bacteria from the bowel that lives on the skin near the rectum or in the vagina which can spread and enter the urinary tract through the urethra.
Once bacteria enters the urethra it travels upward causing infection in the bladder and sometimes other parts of the urinary tract.
Sexual intercourse is a common cause of urinary tract infections because the female anatomy can make women more prone to urinary tract infections. During sexual intercourse bacteria in the vaginal area is sometimes massaged into the urethra by the motion of the penis.
Women who change sexual partners or begin having sexual intercourse more frequently may experience bladder or urinary tract infections more often than women in monogomus relationships. Although it is rare, some women get a urinary tract infection every time they have sex.
Another cause of bladder infections or UTI is waiting too long to urinate. The bladder is a muscle that stretches to hold urine and contracts when the urine is released. Waiting very long past the time you first feel the need to urinate causes the bladder to stretch beyond its capacity which over time can weaken the bladder muscle. When the bladder is weakened it may not empty completely and some urine is left in the bladder which may increase the risk of urinary tract infection or bladder infection.
Other factors may also increase a woman's risk of developing UTI including pregnancy, having urinary tract infections or bladder infections as a child, having past menopause, and diabetes.
What are the Symptoms of Urinary Tract Infections?
Symptoms of UTI or bladder infection are not easy to miss and include a strong urge to urinate that cannot be delayed which is followed by a sharp pain or burning sensation in the urethra when the urine is released. Most often very little urine is released and the urine that is released may be tinged with blood. The urge to urinate recurs quickly and soreness may occur in the lower abdomen, back, or sides.
This cycle may repeat itself frequently during the day or night--most people urinate about six times a day, when the need to urinate occurs more often a bladder infection should be suspected.
When bacteria enters the ureters and spread to the kidneys, symptoms such as back pain, chills, fever, nausea, and vomiting may occur, as well as the previous symptoms of lower urinary tract infection.
Proper diagnosis is vital since these symptoms can also be caused by other problems such as infections of the vagina or vulva. Only your physician can make the distinction and make a correct diagnosis.
How is Diagnosis of UTI Made?
The number of bacteria and white blood cells in a urine sample is the basis for diagnosing urinary tract infections. Urine is examined under a microscope and cultured in a substance that promotes the growth of bacteria. A pelvic exam may also be necessary.
Antibiotics are the usual treatment for bladder infections and other urinary tract infections. Seven to ten days of antibiotics is usually required although some infections may require only a single dose of antibiotics.
It's important that all antibiotics are taken as prescribed and not discontinued before the full treatment is complete. Symptoms may disappear soon after beginning antibiotics but if the antibiotics are quit early the infection may still be present and recur.
Another urine test may be ordered about a week after completing treatment to be sure the infection is cured.
hope this helped hun!
love,ash
