Patient's Query
I have a burning sensation when i pee :(( I think its been like this for a while and i looked it up and a UTI is only supposed to last 24-48 hours? Im not sure what to do! I started noticing after sex, howevwr I am almost certain its not an STD because the other person does not have one and neither do I! Although would I need to get tested just in case?
Hi
welcome to icliniq.com
There are 2 possibilities for the problem. 1.UTI and 2.STD. please note we can not rule out UTI without urine examination. Please note people both male &female can have STD without or very mild symptoms. you have 2 options get complete urine examination done. if it is positive for UTI --it can be treated and if negative--possibility of STD is more. It is important for you to appreciate that many people may have both UTI&STD and common mistake done is treating only UTI. please get complete urine examination done. with test results you can consult
